Boundary Conditions for Modeling Transport in Vertical Barriers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One-dimensional advective-dispersive-reactive models are often used to simulate the performance of vertical subsurface barriers. However, a review of the literature reveals a lack of consistency in the treatment of boundary ...
Nonequilibrium Sorption in Soil/Bentonite Barriers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The installation of soil/bentonite (SB) slurry walls is a popular strategy for containing subsurface contamination. An important aspect of performance assessment for SB systems is an evaluation of the rate of contaminant ...
Feasibility of Amending Slurry Walls with Zero-Valent Iron
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Rapid degradation of aqueous trichloroethylene (TCE) was observed in batch experiments conducted with soil/bentonite slurry wall materials amended with the addition of zero-valent iron. The first-order TCE decay constants ...
