Numerous industries have been using chloroethenes (CEs), mainly tetrachloroethene and trichloroethene, as non-flammable solvents since the beginning of the 20th century. Massive usage, along with careless handling and storage, made CEs one of the most abun ...
Numerous industries have been using chlorinated ethenes (CEs), mainly tetrachlorethene and trichloroethene, as non-flammable solvents since the beginning of the 20th century. Massive usage, along with careless handling and storage, made CEs one of the most ...
Modeling groundwater flow and contaminant transport in industrialized and urbanized alluvial plains is challenging because of the dynamic nature of the strongly interacting river – groundwater system and the scarcity of data. An original combined regional ...
Widely used in industrial activities, chloroethenes have become common groundwater contaminants. Dehalorespiration is an anaerobic bacterial respiration coupling their sequential degradation to energy production. The interactions between the dehalorespirin ...
Numerous industries and facilities have been using chlorinated ethenes (CEs) as non-flammable solvents since the beginning of the 20th century. These compounds are known to persist in the environment, exerting adverse effects. They have been considered for ...
A contaminated alluvial aquifer, in a former gasworks factory and discharging to an adjacent river, was the object of field and laboratory investigations to assess pollutant attenuation and dispersion. Various organic and inorganic compounds were found in ...
Chlorinated ethenes (CEs) represent a major environmental concern in most industrialized countries. These compounds, used as solvents and degreasing agents since the 1940s, have been released accidentally into the environment. Being recalcitrant to aerobic ...
Thousands of chemicals are in daily use; many of these reach the aquatic environment, which serves as a medium of transport and deposition into sediment and organisms. It is often unknown which effects these contaminants, alone or in combination with other ...
The behavior of As in the subsurface environment was examined along a transect of groundwater monitoring wells at a Superfund site, where enhanced reductive dechlorination (ERD) is being used for the remediation of groundwater contaminated with chlorinated ...
Land use changes and the intensification of agriculture since the 1950s have resulted in a deterioration of groundwater quality in many European countries. For the protection of groundwater quality, it is necessary to (1) assess the current groundwater qua ...
