A Heuristic Procedure to Optimize the Design of a Permeable Reactive Barrier for Groundwater Remediation

This paper deals with a procedure to optimize the design of permeable reactive barrier (PRB) built with activated carbon for the in situ remediation of a polluted aquifer. A simulation-based heuristic procedure is developed to define, with an iterative procedure, the optimal position and geometrical...
