The Newark South Wellfield Aquifer Management Plan: How to Get More Water/Better Water in an Urban Setting!
Ground-Water Treatments Gain Ground
Ground water is the main source of the nation's public water supplies and is also used extensively for agricultural and industrial purposes. Yet our reserves are constantly...
Bayesian Decision Analysis for Contaminant Travel Time
Biological Clogging and Rehabilitation of Drains and Well Systems and the Implications on Groundwater Quality
Potential Microbial Impacts on Groundwater Quality
Over the last decade there has been significant progress in the understanding of sub-surface microbiology. The ubiquity of microorganisms within groundwaters forms a major part of these...
Dynamic Optimal Groundwater Remediation by Granular Activated Carbon
Objective functions to describe the operating and capital costs of GAC treatment are incorporated into a control theory model for optimal pump-and-treat groundwater remediation design....
A Multiperiod Approach for the Solution of Groundwater Management Problems using the Outer Approximation Method
In a previous work the Outer Approximation method was presented (Karatzas and Pinder, 1993 and 1996) for the solution of groundwater management problems where the selected pumping rates...
Use of SALQR Optimization in Large Aquifer Cleanup
A modified form of Differential Dynamic Programming (DDP), called Suc cessive Approximation to a Linear Quadratic Regulator (SALQR), is used to compute optimal policies for remediation...
Denitrification of Ground Water/Waste Water using the Aquacel System
Within the United States there are vast reserves of ground water which are no longer suitable for drinking because of high concentration (> 10 mg/l NO3-N) nitrates. Furthermore,...
Comparison of Stochastic Programming and Robust Optimization Models for Groundwater Plume Containment
Stochastic optimization models for containing a groundwater contaminant plume through the installation and operation of pumping wells are developed. Two related formulations are presented—stochastic...
The Impact of Numerical Precision on Optimal Groundwater Hydraulic Control
The numerical precision retained in the formulation of groundwater hydraulic control optimization problems can have significant impacts on the accuracy of the solution. Sources of imprecision...
Groundwater Monitoring For a Tunneling Project
The Groundwater Monitoring and Management Plan, developed for the proposed tunnel reaches between Devil Canyon and City Creek, monitors and manages selected water resource features within...
Artificial Recharge Using Inflatable Rubber Dams
Artificial recharge of ground water is a necessity in Orange County, California, where natural recharge is insufficient to satisfy water demands. Orange County is part of a semiarid coastal...
Modeling Groundwater Response to a Perimeter Flood
A large industrial facility in the west of France was impacted by a flood in January 1995. Costs associated with the disruption in one week of production were estimated at $15E6 US. In...
