Subject syllabus
Overview of pollutants in groundwater and soils – organic, inorganic pollutants, bacteriological contamination.
Transport of pollutants in groundwater – transport processes, advection, hydrodynamic dispersion, sorption, degradation.
Processes of natural attenuation - methodology of natural attenuation assessment on contaminated sites.
Exploration of pollution – methods for saturated zone, unsaturated zone, monitoring systems.
