A system and method are provided for inoculating a biological reactor having a chamber. The chamber is configured to contain influent and biomass to degrade contaminants in the influent. A vessel is configured to receive influent and biomass from the chamber and to substantially isolate the received influent and biomass from that contained in the chamber. The vessel is also configured to deliver the isolated influent and biomass to the chamber, thereby facilitating inoculation of the biological reactor.

Abstract:
A combination connector and supporting member for a segmented membrane barrier is disclosed. A tubular connector is joined to one end of a membrane segment along a continuous seam and a second smaller connector, adapted to fit within the tubular connector, is attached to the opposite end of the membrane segment along a second continuous seam. A projection, extending beyond the edge of the membrane segment is adapted to fit within a key or the like for supporting and locating the connectors in a trench.
