A Multi-Objective Optimal Model for a Petroleum-Contaminated Aquifer Groundwater Remediation in Western Canada

Article Preview

Abstract:

During the groundwater has been suffered from varies degrees pollution. It needs an approach to help decision maker to determine remediation strategies. In this study, a groundwater multi-objective model that includes two objectives (i.e. total remediation cost and average concentration after remediation) is proposed and successfully applied to a petroleum-contaminated aquifer located in western Canada. It can determine a remediation strategy through optimal software MATLAB after convert multi-objective into a non-linear objective using α liner weighting method.
