| Summary: | In a manual sponsored by the Groundwater Quality Committee of the Environmental and Water Resources Institute, six contributed papers survey key models and technologies used in the study and remediation of contaminated aquifers. A detailed analysis of the benefits and limitations of strategies including a simple screening model and field application, pump-and-treat, bioremediation, steam flooding, and air sparging, allow engineers to evaluate their applicability to specific organic contaminants and field sites. Includes figures comparing simulated and actual data. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR. |
