Optimal Pumping Strategies To Maximize Dissolved Tce Extraction At Mather Afb, California, Richard C. Peralta, Alaa H. Aly

Civil and Environmental Engineering Faculty Publications

USU first estimated the future TCE concentrations that would result if no pumping strategy were implemented (Figure 5, Scenario AO). Then USU used the procedure of Appendix B with the model formulation of Appendix C to compute optimal pumping strategies. In computing optimal strategies USU cycled until an arbitrary three percent contaminant mass convergence criterion was satisfied.
