CONTENTS
The course is intended to introduce the powerful capacity of PHREEQC for modelling practical hydrogeochemical problems. Lectures during the course provide an overview of the important processes in water quality. Hand and computer exercises from the 2nd edition of Appelo and Postma's 'Geochemistry, Groundwater and Pollution' form an integral part of the course.
During the course students will learn: how to model laboratory experiments, such as determination of exchangeable cations, oxidation of pyrite with surface complexation of heavy metals released; how to model hydrochemical reactions during artificial recharge, aquifer thermal energy storage, in situ iron removal; to deduce reaction patterns along groundwater flow lines via inverse modelling, including data uncertainties, isotopes; how to model any kinetic reaction, such as feldspar weathering, denitrification via sequential Monod kinetics.
