Document Title :
Influence Of Uncertainty In Leak Location On Detection Of Contaminant Plumes Released At Landfill Sites
تأثير عدم التأكد فى مكان التسرب على كشف ريشة التلوث الخارجة من مواقع دفن الملوثات
 
Document Language : English 
Abstract : Landfills represent a significant threat to groundwater contamination due to their nature of operation and their abundance. Monitoring well networks at these sites are of vital importance in detecting leakage plumes. Efficiency of the monitoring system significantly depends on many factors including subsurface heterogeneity, nature of the landfill, numbers of wells and so forth. However, in the presented study, the main focus is the uncertainty in leak locations and the influence of plume size on the detection probability. A Monte Carlo simulation coupled with groundwater flow and a random walk particle-tracking model has been used to simulate contaminant plumes released from landfills. It has been observed that detection probability increases as the size of the initial contaminant leak source and dispersivity of the medium increases. e.
