Abstract

This report opens with an Executive Summary, which briefly describes the project’s major accomplishments to date. The body of the report is constructed in sections focused on five related project efforts: 1) Bioreactor Design, Operation, and Performance, 2) Power Management, 3) Microbiology, 4) Chemical Treatments, and 5) Economic Aspects of Sulfate Reduction. Each of these sections, in turn, starts with a brief summary, which is followed by a detailed report. Additional materials concerning bioreactor design, construction, and operation, as well as experimental design, rationale, methods, and data are included in appendices. In addition, the MnDRIVE Project Accountability metrics, which contain a breakdown of particular project tasks, are included as appendices.
