Investigation and Assessment Technology for Typical Groundwater-contaminated Sites and Application Cases, 1st ed. 2021

This book introduces readers to environmental background investigation, pollution source intensity evaluation and risk assessment approaches used at three main types of groundwater-contaminated sites: municipal domestic waste landfills, hazardous waste landfills and oil-contaminated sites. In addition, typical contaminated sites throughout China are examined to demonstrate how these approaches can be applied for their investigation, assessment and restoration. By reading this book, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the restoration and management of typical groundwater-contaminated sites.

Introduction.- Environmental background investigation of groundwater contamination sites.- Rating and evaluation of pollution source intensity for typical groundwater contamination sites.- Risk assessment of groundwater contamination sites.- Application case.
