  Summary: This course provides a comprehensive overview of the transport, fate, and attenuation of metals in soil and groundwater using the "Scenarios Approach". The Scenarios Approach was developed by Savannah River National Laboratory to provide a quick and easy framework for improving the assessment and remediation of inorganic contaminated sites. The Scenarios Approach is based on the interpretation of plume geochemistry, geochemical gradients, and specific inorganic contaminant behavior in various geochemical settings (e.g., Cr(VI) instability under low redox conditions). Understanding metal behavior within various geochemical conditions provides an improved method for predicting metal contaminant transport and fate, and implementing effective remediation strategies. The course focuses on metals in soil and groundwater, and is also applicable to sediment, stormwater, and surface water.

  
  

  Course Topics:

  Principles of Metal Behavior in Soil and Groundwater Overview of the Scenarios Approach Source Configurations Designating Plume Segments Scenario Indicator Parameters: Oxidation-Reduction Potential Cation Exchange Capacity Soil Iron Oxide Content Primary Modifying Factors: pH Total Dissolved Solids Sulfur Species Carbonate Alkalinity Secondary Modifying Factors: Facilitated Transport Source Type Hydrogeology Travel Time to Receptors
