The calibrated tridimensional flow and transport model was a useful tool to assess the efficacy of the remediation strategy employed: the model showed that TCH were confined within the Megasite boundaries despite the presence of scattered residual DNAPL source zones. The shape of TCH plumes was primarily influenced by the saltwater wedge location, with the highest TCH concentrations located in the upper part of the aquifer near the shore line. To further improve TCH recovery and mitigate saltwater intrusion, shallow wells might be employed near the sea boundary.

Abstract
The calibrated tridimensional flow and transport model was a useful tool to assess the efficacy of the remediation strategy employed: the model showed that TCH were confined within the Megasite boundaries despite the presence of scattered residual DNAPL source zones. The shape of TCH plumes was primarily influenced by the saltwater wedge location, with the highest TCH concentrations located in the upper part of the aquifer near the shore line. To further improve TCH recovery and mitigate saltwater intrusion, shallow wells might be employed near the sea boundary.File in questo prodotto:
