  3. Groundwater remediation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwater_remediation

    In DPVE systems, a high-vacuum extraction well is installed with its screened section in the zone of contaminated soils and groundwater. Fluid/vapor extraction systems depress the water table and water flows faster to the extraction well. DPVE removes contaminants from above and below the water table.

    Examining the composition of stable isotopes in the water found in soil, rivers, groundwater, and xylem (or vein systems) of vegetation, using mass spectroscopy, which measures and sort the masses in a sample, along with data on the changes in groundwater depth coupled with the time and vegetative rooting patterns, shows spatial changes over time in the use of groundwater by the vegetation in ...

    This stored water is recovered during late summer and early autumn for irrigation needs. [citation needed] Both of these well types use a down-hole control valve. ASR can also be used to re-inject water used by HVAC systems to maintain the ground water levels and store the thermal differences from summertime cooling for winter time heating ...

    With the FLUTe system, however, the annular seals are created by the liner that is pressed against the borehole wall via pressure applied by water, air or sand that fills the liner. All of the systems can be installed in bedrock. With the exception of FLUTe, annular seals can be installed via the backfill method.

    The term (,) denotes then the pharmaceutical solute concentration field in the water phase (for unsaturated regions of the aquifer, the ADRE equation has a similar shape, but it includes additional terms accounting for volumetric contents and contaminants concentrations in other phases than water), while (,) represents the velocity field.
