Solid-phase bioremediation is an in-situ technology where contaminated soil is treated in its original location.
False
Slurry-phase bioremediation is a slower process compared to other treatment processes.
False
Bacterial growth in solid-phase bioremediation is facilitated through pipes distributed throughout the piles.
True
Air pulling through the pipes is not necessary for microbial respiration in solid-phase bioremediation.
False
Biopile bioremediation involves above-ground piling of polluted soil, followed by aeration and nutrient amendment.
True
