Evaluation of groundwater contamination in former military airport area
The analysis of groundwater contamination at the former military airport, due to fuel tanks leakage and other accidental spills, mainly involving polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), is presented in the paper. It was observed by modelling that, after termination of pumping, the contaminant by-pas...

description | The analysis of groundwater contamination at the former military airport, due to fuel tanks leakage and other accidental spills, mainly involving polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), is presented in the paper. It was observed by modelling that, after termination of pumping, the contaminant by-passes the slurry wall around its edges and proceeds towards the withdrawal area. The modelling showed that the water contamination hazard is quite low, which is mainly due to pollutant deterioration (decay) and sorption. |
