During the past several years, the number of successful bioremediation projects has steadily increased. Remediation professionals have experimented with many techniques, some more effective than others. The following paragraphs discuss some of the more efficient procedures used to introduce nutrients and oxygen (or other electron acceptors). 

Air sparging is usually accomplished by forcing air through a short section of well screen or a porous ceramic block. As the air enters the aquifer, it passes through the soil pores and forms very small bubbles, which increase the transfer of oxygen by diffusion. When properly installed below the aquifer interface, the air is delivered under pressure, which forces it to disperse. Up to 10 ppm DO can be provided.

A completely different route to the A-electron problem is provided by DPT. On an operational level it can be thought of as an attempt to improve on the HE method by including correlation effects into the self-consistent field procedure. 

The physical reasoning for why these densities were frequently employed in the earlier days of density functional theory was that in this way the degeneracy of the partially filled d-orbitals could be retained. A technical reason why these densities still have to be employed in some recent investigations is that calculations with integral orbital occupations simply do not converge in the self consistent field procedure (see, e. g., Blanchet, Duarte, and Salahub, 1997). Such densities correspond to a representation of a particular state 2S+1L with Mg = S and a spherical averaging over ML.

RECOMMENDED FIELD PROCEDURES Spills must be contained by covering with vermiculite, diatomaceous earth clay, fine sand, sponges, and paper or cloth towels. Decontaminate with copious amounts of aqueous Sodium Hydroxide solution (a minimum 10 wt percent). Scoop up all material and place in a fully removable head drum with a high density polyethylene liner. Cover the contents of the drum with decontaminating solution as above before affixing the drum head.

Heavy atoms exhibit large relativistic effects, often too large to be treated perturba-tively. The Schrodinger equation must be supplanted by an appropriate relativistic wave equation such as Dirac-Coulomb or Dirac-Coulomb-Breit. Approximate one-electron solutions to these equations may be obtained by the self-consistent-field procedure. The resulting Dirac-Fock or Dirac-Fock-Breit functions are conceptually similar to the familiar Hartree-Fock functions the Hartree-Fock orbitals are replaced, however, by four-component spinors. Correlation is no less important in the relativistic regime than it is for the lighter elements, and may be included in a similar manner. 

Now we have written down a wave function appropriate for use in the case where H = h(i). In HF theory, we make some simplifications so many-electron atoms and molecules can be treated this way. By tacitly assuming that each electron moves in a percieved electric field generated by the stationary nuclei and the average spatial distribution of all the other electrons, it essentially becomes an independant-electron problem. The HF Self Consistent Field procedure (SCF) will be bent on constructing each x(x) to give the lowest energy.
