Analysis of hydrochemical time series

(Corresponding) Kolarec B., Žeravica A.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Agricultural activity of spreading fertilizers may, in case they are washed away to an aquifer, result in a groundwater contamination. There was a research conducted in Croatia on the lower part of the Danube-Sava canal which is occupied by extensive agricultural production to measure the...Read more

The Characteristics of soil contamination in industrial complex in Korea

(Corresponding) HYO JEONG L., GWAN JU J., JEONG HO C., SANG YEOP L., WON WOOK K.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
It is expected that the possibility of soil contamination will be high as industrial complex will be treated with many harmful chemicals during industrial activities. Therefore, the Korea Environment Corporation has been conducting a detailed survey of Korea’s industrial complex since 2004. There...Read more

Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS): an emerging contaminant

(Corresponding) Toskos T., Panagiotakis I., Dermatas D.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
PFAS compounds are ubiquitous in the environment and in consumer products. Unlike other emergent contaminants this is a family of compounds with, literally, thousands of compounds. Our knowledge of toxicological and environmental fate and transport properties is an evolving field. On the other hand...Read more

Technology Critical Elements in industrial wastes as the source of soil contamination

Rachwal M., Jablonska-Czapla M., Grygoyć K., (Corresponding) Fornalczyk A., Willner J.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
The intensive development of industry, especially the mining and metallurgy, automotive and electrical industries, as well as the growing demand, rapid consumption and "ageing" of most products, including electrical/electronic equipment, requiring regular replacement, affects the amount...Read more

Column experiments to investigate the fate of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in the subsurface during soil stabilization with colloidal activated carbon

(Corresponding) Niarchos G., B. Kleja D., Ahrens L., Fagerlund F.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Remediation of sites contaminated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) is key to reduce the contamination of drinking water sources and subsequent human exposure. PFAS production and use is increasingly being restricted worldwide, however, legacy contamination plumes in soil and...Read more

Practical Applications of Groundwater Modeling in Contaminated Site Investigation and Remediation

(Corresponding) Toskos T.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Modeling is a very useful tool in the investigation and remediation of contaminated sites, that is generally misunderstood and underutilized. Often, modeling is perceived as requiring protracted and expensive efforts, beyond the means of most projects. However, developing a clear set of objectives...Read more

Data Visualization Techniques for Contaminated Site Investigation and Remediation

(Corresponding) Toskos T.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Site investigations and remedial actions generate large amounts of data. While tabulating the data is necessary for the purpose of satisfying reporting requirements and comparisons to standards, it does not allow us to understand and explore relationships in the data to obtain important information...Read more

Using CO2- induced magnesium carbonate as environmental friendly additives for petroleum decontamination sandy soils

(Corresponding) Abdeh Keykha H., Mavroulidou M., Mohamadzadeh H.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Chemical pollutants, including petroleum contaminations causes soil pollution due to improper transportation, leakage, or storage. Several methods for soil decontamination have been presented according to the type of soil and their level of pollution. In choosing the appropriate method and...Read more
