Effect of multilayered groundwater mounds on water dynamics beneath a recharge basin: Numerical simulation and assessment of surface injection

Lu, P., Sheng, Z., Zhang, Z., Miller, G., Reinert, S., & Huang, M. (2021). Effect of multilayered groundwater mounds on water dynamics beneath a recharge basin: Numerical simulation and assessment of surface injection. Hydrological Processes, 35: e14193. https://doi.org/10.1002/hyp.14193 Interactions between groundwater mounds caused by a geologic layer contrast affect the efficiency of managed aquifer recharge in arid areas. However, research has rarely examined the roles […]

Fate and Transport of Polymeric Nanoparticles in Saturated Porous Media

Sanders, Jonathan Edward (2015). Fate and Transport of Polymeric Nanoparticles in Saturated Porous Media. Master’s thesis, Texas A & M University. http://hdl.handle.net/1969.1/155650 The application of engineered nanomaterials has improved many traditional groundwater remediation technologies; however, the development of novel nano-scale remediation technologies remains limited. magnetic shell crosslinked knedel-like (MSCKs) are novel polymeric nanoparticles whose application […]

Reactive Transport Modeling of Natural Attenuation in Stormwater Bioretention Cells and Under Land Application of Wastewater

Zhang, Jingqiu (2014). Reactive Transport Modeling of Natural Attenuation in Stormwater Bioretention Cells and Under Land Application of Wastewater. M.S. Thesis. Texas A&M University. http://hdl.handle.net/1969.1/152782 Natural attenuation is a cost effective method to treat wastewater applied into soil. The natural attenuation process includes diffusion, dispersion, microbial activity, oxidation, mineral precipitation, sorption, and ion exchange to […]

Modeling of a Groundwater Circulation Well Removal Action Alternative

Miller, G. and Elmore, A. (2005). “Modeling of a Groundwater Circulation Well Removal Action Alternative.” Pract. Period. Hazard. Toxic Radioact. Waste Manage., 10.1061/(ASCE)1090-025X(2005)9:2(122), 122-129. http://doi.org/10.1061/(ASCE)1090-025X(2005)9:2(122). This paper presents the basis for using groundwater circulation wells (GCWs) for removal actions focused on contaminated domestic water supplies. A properly placed GCW could be used to pretreat water […]
