Zusammenfassung:This comprehensive, interdisciplinary reference explains the basic physical, hydrological, chemical, and biochemical processes and mechanisms governing contaminants in the subsurface vadose zone - an often overlooked problem that is of major worldwide societal concern. Additionally, this important resource provides helpful case studies representing state-of-the-art techniques and contains never-before-published research findings on, and recommendations for solving, groundwater contamination
Covering a wide spectrum of groundwater contamination sources and their chemical, transport, and release characteristics, Groundwater Contamination and Control considers the preventive as well as corrective approaches in combatting the threat of irreversible groundwater pollution ... explores the challenges faced in remediating and rehabilitating polluted soils and aquifers ... analyzes the legislative aspects that arise when monitoring landfills, spills, and industrial sites ... reviews the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Groundwater Disinfection Rule ... describes the in situ process of on-site remediation ... discusses the political and legal issues involved in cases where aquifers are shared between people or countries ... previews future trends in on-site analysis and monitoring methods ... and much more
Illustrated with nearly 450 figures, tables, and equations and containing more than 1700 literature citations to facilitate further in-depth study, Groundwater Contamination and Control is essential reading for pollution control, environmental, chemical, industrial, sanitary, and civil engineers; chemists; hydrologists; ecologists; agronomists; environmental scientists; waste management consultants; environmental regulators and government policymakers; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines
