Contaminant transport has been widely studied in rigid porous media, but there are some cases where a large volumetric stain occurs such as dewatering of dredged contaminated sediment, landfill liner, and in-situ capping. This paper presents a numerical investigation of contaminant transport coupled with large strain consolidation. Consolidation test was performed with contaminated sediments collected in Gary, Indiana, U.S. to obtain constitutive relationships, which are required for numerical simulations. Numerical results using CST2 show an excellent agreement with measured settlement and excess pore pressure. CST2 is then used to simulate contaminant transport during and after in-situ capping. Numerical simulations provide that transient advective flows caused by consolidation significantly increase the contaminant transport rate. In addition, the numerical simulations revealed that active capping with Reactive Core Mat (RCM) significantly decelerates consolidation-induced contaminant transport.

The centrifuge test result on capped sediment was compared to the advection- dispersion equation proposed for one layered to predict contaminant transport parameters. The fitted contaminant transport parameters for the centrifuge test results were one to three orders of magnitude greater than the estimated parameters from the advection-dispersion equation. This indicates that the centrifuge model over estimated the contaminant transport phenomena. Thus, the centrifuge provides a non-conservative approach to modeling contaminant transport. It should be also noted that the advection-dispersion equation used in this study is a one layered model. Two layered modeling approaches are more appropriate for modeling this data since there are two layers with different partitioning coefficients. Further research is required to model the centrifuge test using two-layered advection-dispersion models.

Contaminant retardation factor is derived from the colloidal and contaminant transport equations for a four-phase porous medium: an aqueous phase, two mobile colloidal phases, and a solid matrix. It is assumed that the contaminant sorption to solid matrix and colloidal particles and the colloidal deposition on solid matrix follow the linear isotherms. The behavior of the contaminant retardation factor in response to the change of model parameters is examined employing the experimental data of Magee et al. (1991) and Jenkins and Lion (1993). In the four-phase system, the contaminant retardation factor is determined by both the contaminant association with solid matrix and colloidal particles and the colloidal deposition on solid matrix. The contaminant mobility is enhanced when the affinity of contaminants to mobile colloids increases. In addition, as the affinity of colloids to solid matrix decreases, the contaminant mobility increases.

In order to provide for the guidance on groundwater quality monitoring network design and also, to suggest the index to the solution of the contaminated groundwater remediation problems in the lake watershed, it is necessary to analyze the contaminant transport in the groundwater. The solute transport was analyzed in the lake watershed to investigate the behavior of the injected contaminant sources depend on the relationships between the point of contaminant sources and position of the lake. Three hypothetical groundwater flow systems, which is composed of a flow-through lake and two solute sources, were considered. The lakes located in the upper, middle, and lower portions of a watershed respectively. The transported contaminant was numerically simulated for five years by using MT3D contaminant transport model under the three-dimentional steady state conditions. From the above simulations, it can be concluded that the contaminant concentration was high as the contaminant source located at the upper position of a watershed, and the influence of the contaminant injection was large as the solute source located at the lower position. When the injection of contaminant was continued for one year without regard to the position of contaminant source and the lake, the influence of contaminant source was reached to bedrock.

Contaminant transport in groundwater induces major threat and harmful effect on the environment; hence, the fate of the contaminant migration in groundwater is seeking a lot of attention. In this paper a two dimensional numerical flow and transport model through saturated layered soil is developed. Groundwater flow and solute transport has been simulated numerically using proposed model. The model implements the finite volume time splitting method to discretize the main equations. The performance, accuracy and efficiency of the out coming numerical models have been successfully examined by two test cases. The verification test cases consist of two-dimensional, groundwater flow and solute transport. The final purpose of this paper is to discuss and compare the shape of contaminant plume in homogeneous and heterogeneous media with different soil properties and control of solute transport using a zone for minimizing the potential of groundwater contamination; furthermore, this model leads to select the effective and optimum remedial strategies for cleaning the contaminated aquifers.

하저 또는 해저 퇴적오염물질 처리 및 제거는 준설과 매립에 의해 활발히 진행되었다. 그러나 준설과 매립은 준설과정에서 발생하는 퇴적오염물질의 교란, 매립지 선정문제, 고비용 공사비 등으로 인한 많은 제약이 따르고 있다. 이러한 문제로 인해 협소한 지역의 퇴적오염물질에 대해서는 오염물질의 용출 저감을 위한 현장 캡핑이 근래 들어 많이 사용되고 있다. 현장 캡핑에 따른 오염물질 이동에 관해서는 분자확산에 의한 영향이 지배적으로 해석되어 왔으나, 근래 들어 보다 정확한 모사를 하기 위하여 이류-확산을 복합적으로 해석할 필요성이 제기되었다. 퇴적물은 초기 함수율이 높은 슬러지(sludge)상태로 비교적 적은 상재하중과 자중에 의한 압밀이 발생하고, 압밀 과정에서 발생한 간극수 흐름의 변화는 오염물질의 이류에 의한 이동에도 영향이 미친다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 연구에서 수행된 압밀 과정에서 오염물질의 이동뿐만 아니라 압밀 후 간극비의 감소에 따른 오염물질 이동의 변화에 대하여 분석하고자 한다.

Riverbank filtration is a natural process using alluvial aquifers to remove contaminants and pathogens in river water for the production of drinking water. In riverbank filtration, the understanding of contaminant transport is an important task for the production of high quality drinking water. This study investigates the transport behavior of hydrophobic organic contaminants when colloids (dissolved organic matter and bacteria) are present in the aquifer. A mathematical model for the transport of contaminants is developed and solved numerically for various situations. Results show that in the riverbank filtration the presence of DOM and bacteria enhances the mobility of contaminant significantly. Sensitivity analysis indicates that the distribution of the total aqueous Phase contaminant is significantly affected by distribution coefficients which account for affinity of solid or colloidal Phase to contaminant.

In this study, analyses of contaminant transport are peformed to evaluate the diffusion effect of A sewage tunnel. First, Crank's analytical method is used to measure the concentration change of contaminant with time and space. Two dimensional numerical analysis is performed to measure concentration distribution of contaminant. Both methods show that the diffusion effect is little even after 500 years. This means that when flow converges into the tunnel, the environmental effect of contaminant in tunnel is not serious because there is no advection occurs.

지하수에 콜로이드가 있을 경우 지체계수 감소로인한 오염물의 가속이송이 일어난다. 세균은 콜로이드 크기이며, 비중이 물과 비슷하고. 또 특유의 표면조건으로 인하여 오염물을 가속이송시킬 수 있다. 유동 세균이 지하수에 있으면 그 system 은 액상, 고상, 그리고 입상의 3 상 (phase) 으로 해석되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 물질수지에 기초한 수학적 모델을 개발하여 다공매질에서의 오염물의 이동을 예측했다. 세균과 오염물의 각 상사이의 분배는 평형분배 모델을 이용했다. 모델결과를 일반화하기 위하여 무차원화 기법이 사용되었다. 모델의 해는 수치해법이 사용되었고, 문헌상의 실험결과와 비교되었다. 유동 세균이 존재하므로써 오염물이 가속이송되었고, 오염물을 섭취하므로써 그 농도를 낮출 수 있었다.
