Modeling the Effects of Naturally Occurring Organic Carbon on Chlorinated Ethene Transport to a Public Supply Well

Abstract: The vulnerability of public supply wells to chlorinated ethene (CE) contamination in part depends on the availability of naturally occurring organic carbon to consume dissolved oxygen (DO) and initiate reductive dechlorination. This was quantified by building a mass balance model of the Kirkwood-Cohansey aquifer, which is widely used for public water supply in New Jersey. This model was built by telescoping a calibrated regional three-dimensional (3D) MODFLOW model to the approximate capture zone of a single p… Show more

“…The overall procedure involves obtaining solutions to the standard advection‐dispersion equation using appropriate initial and boundary conditions. In the case of CEs, it is also appropriate to consider sorption and biodegradation, both of which depend on the amount and bioavailability of organic carbon present in the aquifer (Chapelle et al ., , ). This study extends the approach described by Frind et al .…”
