Bioremediation Options for UMR

Before and after comparison showing plans for the bioremediation of downtown Rochester, MN

This study explores state-of-the-art ecological design solutions to mitigate a site (owned by the UM-Rochester) containing small amounts of soil contamination. The central aim is to develop a phytoremediation plan to deal with lowlevels of soil contamination, monitor the soundness of the phytoremediation approach, and provide a design scheme that enhances the existing conditions of the site.
