benzene, and typically requires either the potentiation of available microbes (i.e. biostimulation) or the introduction of external microbes (i.e. bioaugmentation) in situ. Remediators can benefit greatly in using indigenous cultures that have been developed to maximize degradative capabilities and
minimize time burden. This project, therefore, is focused on the generation of anaerobic benzene degrading cultures (under methanogenic, sulfate-reducing, iron-reducing, and nitrate-reducing conditions) derived from indigenous Albertan sediments and analysis of their community properties and primary
