In the late 1960s, Langridge and co-workers developed methods, first at Princeton, then at UC San Francisco, to visualize 3D molecular models on the screens of cathode-ray tubes. At the same time Marshall, at Washington University St. Louis, MO, USA, started visuaHzing protein structures on graphics screens.

A more constrained opportunity for nitrate bioremediation arose at the US-DoE Weldon Spring Site near St. Louis, Missouri. This site had been a uranium and thorium processing faciUty, and treatment of the metal had involved nitric acid. The wastestream, known as raffinate, was discharged to surface inpoundments and neutralized with lime to precipitate the metals. Two pits had nitrate levels that requited treatment before discharge, but heavy rains in 1993 threatened to cause the pits to overflow. Bioremediation by the addition of calcium acetate as a carbon source successfully treated more than 19 million liters of water at a reasonable cost (75).
