Anaerobic oxidation of [1,2-14C]dichloroethene to
14CO2 under Mn(IV)-reducing conditions was
demonstrated. The results indicate that oxidative degradation of
partially chlorinated solvents like dichloroethene can be significant
even under anoxic conditions and demonstrate the potential importance
of Mn(IV) reduction for remediation of chlorinated groundwater
contaminants.
