Electrokinetically enhanced bioremediation is an in situ process for the treatment of soils and groundwater contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons and other compounds easily biodegraded under anaerobic conditions. Bench-scale tests have shown that the apphcation of an electric field provides electrokinetic transport of nutrients and biodegrading bacteria to areas of contamination. In addition, microbial growth is enhanced, nitrate transport can be predicted, and beneficial temperature increases can be achieved to areas of contamination.

Factors such as soil type, climate, depth of the water table and the use of irrigation determine the rate and extent of nitrate transport into groundwater and surface water (Sumner McLaughlin, 1 996).

Although the mechanism involved in nitrate uptake by roots is not known, indirect evidence (inhibitors of protein and RNA synthesis) indicates that nitrate induces a permease that greatly enhances the rate of nitrate uptake (Minotti et a/., 1968 Jackson ct a/., 1972, 1973 Neyra and Hageman, 1975). Data of Jackson et al. (1973) indicating that maximal rates of nitrate uptake depend on continuous protein synthesis support the hypothesis for the involvement of a specific nitrate transport protein. Because of the concurrent induction of the permease and nitrate reductase activity (Jackson et al., 1973 Neyra and Hageman, 1975), it has been postulated that the permease and...

Although the specificity of the nitrate transport mechanism(s) is not known, uptake of chloride appears to be by a different transport mechanism. Unlike nitrate, chloride uptake does not exhibit a lag or induction phase (Jackson et al, 1972, 1973 Blevins et al, 1974). Furthermore, chloride does not inhibit influx of [ N] nitrate into barley roots (Glass et al, 1985), although the combined concentration of nitrate and chloride in the vacuole may provide a feedback signal for net uptake (Cram, 1973). In maize roots fluorescein isothiocyanate inhibited chloride but not nitrate uptake, leading Dhugga et al (1988a) to...
