Risk Assessment Frameworks, Calculations of Risk and Toxicological Doses
Paolo F. Ricci
The reliable assessment of hazards or risks arising from groundwater contamination problems and the design of efficient and effective techniques to mitigate these problems require the capability to predict the behavior of chemical contaminants in flowing water. To choose an appropriate remediation strategy, knowledge of the contaminant release source and time release history becomes pertinent. With more and more contamination sites being detected nowadays, it is almost impossible to perform exhaustive drilling, testing, and chemical fingerprint analysis every time, especially in the case of pollution being generated by highway construction and repair materials. Moreover, most of the time, chemical finger printing, state and federal agency records, and private parties' history records of handling hazardous substances are not sufficient to allow a unique solution for the timing of source releases. The purpose of this chapter is to present and review mathematical methods that have been developed during the past 15 years to perform hydrologic inversion and specifically to identify the contaminant source location and time-release history.
Pp. 367-416
