In situ treatments involving the arrangement of contact between prospective reactants in complex porous media require a refined understanding of solute migration. However, the tools and methods used to predict and control fluid movement in the subsurface need significant improvement. Practitioners and regulators must develop novel methods to achieve an advanced understanding of treatment... Read more

Biography
Fred C. Payne, Joseph A. Quinnan, Scott T. Potter
"The book reflects a realistic and successful approach to remediation. It is well researched and detailed enough to provide practical knowledge for engineers, scientists, and regulators in the prediction of fluid movement in the subsurface as well as in the design of pilot to full-scale remediation systems."
– Laura L. Sanders, Book Editor, in Ground Water, 2009
