Course Description
This course will give a broad background of the area of ground water engineering and contamination and the following topics will be presented to the students: sources and types of groundwater contamination, contamination transport mechanisms, sorption and other chemical reactions, the numerical modeling of contaminant transport, non-aqueous phase liquids, groundwater remediation and design and basic definitions of terms used in this area of expertise. The students will also become knowledgeable in the following subjects: occurrence of ground water, ground water exploration, specifications, estimations of quantities, types of ground water aquifers, basic studies and investigations, ground water flow, hydraulics of ground water, well hydraulics, estimation of well discharges, observation wells, well design, well development, ground water quality as well as contaminant, transport management and remediation. The students will receive an introduction to ground water modeling and become familiar with the state of ground water in the Kingdom.
