Geochemical data from laboratory and field experiments conducted to evaluate degradation of perchlorate and RDX in groundwater, White Sands Missile Range HTA site, New Mexico

Metadata Updated: January 21, 2026

This metadata record presents geochemical analytical data determined during laboratory experiments and a field pilot test collected during 2008-2010 to evaluate degradation of the cyclic nitramine explosive, hexahydro-1,3,4-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), and perchlorate in a fractured rock aquifer. These experiments were conducted as part of a study to evaluate the feasibility of enhanced bioremediation for treatment of groundwater contaminants at White Sands Missile Range HTA site, New Mexico. Experiments included two anaerobic microcosm experiments, a culture enrichment test, and field injection test with the dechlorinating culture WBC-2. Data includes concentrations of nitrate, ammonium, perchlorate, RDX, and RDX metabolites. The field test data include concentrations of perchlorate and RDX and its metabolites in groundwater and in Bio-Sep beads that were suspended in wells.
