Preface

In many regions around the world, soil–water quality issues are no longer related to just one type of pollution. Thus, a better understanding of the fate and transport of multi-pollutants is required for the restoration of polluted sites and production of safe drinking water. A number of studies have been performed during the past decades to evaluate the effects of a range of geo-bio-hydrological processes on subsurface water flow and transport of various contaminants. This book presents overviews on recent advancements and studies dedicated toward investigating the flow and transport in subsurface pollutants. The aim of this book is to provide a background for solving the practical problems concerning multi-pollutants contamination and
