The proposed research program is designed to investigate biogeochemical processes that govern biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons and mobility of metals under anaerobic conditions. Methanogenesis is the dominant process in most anaerobic environments. Complete understanding of this fundamental process will help devise better strategies for management of contaminated subsurface environments in Canada such as tailings ponds, submerged soils and sediments, wetlands, and aquifers.

拟议的研究计划旨在研究控制石油烃生物降解和厌氧条件下金属流动性的生物地球化学过程。产甲烷是大多数厌氧环境中的主要过程。全面了解这一基本过程将有助于制定更好的策略来管理加拿大受污染的地下环境，例如尾矿库、淹没土壤和沉积物、湿地和含水层。
