Abstract EN
Biogeochemical reduction processes are active in alluvial aquifers, because organic carbon which is indispensable for bacteria growth is abundant.
As a result of reduction process, significant changes of groundwater quality take place; denitrification, reduction of manganese dioxide, iron-hydroxide, sulfate, arsenate, and methane are well known as reduction processes in an anaerobic groundwater condition.
Therefore, the prediction of redox environment in an aquifer is a key subject in order to understand how the groundwater quality is affected.
If the mechanism of groundwater quality formation in aquifer scale is systematically understood, impacts caused by accidents or illegal dumping can be predicted, and subsequently, an appropriate management of aquifer will be established.
In the present paper, quantitative discussions are made by the numerical simulations applied for the one-dimensional column experiment and two-dimensional fresh-salt water mixing zone.
Recommendation and the future subject are presented through the results of two numerical simulations.
