Abstract

Simulation of the transport of hazardous pollutants in a variety of media is a challenge. In this paper, a novel Extended Environment Multimedia Modeling and Analysis System (EEMMS) for migration of pollutants from landfill through unsaturated site to groundwater is presented. The developed EEMMS consists of four pathways modules: air, landfill, unsaturated zone and groundwater zone. The finite element method in EEMMS framework is used to analyze these four pathways and the results are compared to the finite difference model and analytical model. The effectiveness of EEMMS has been verified through a case study of Trail Road Landfill site. The simulation of uncertainty was conducted with a quantitative technique of Monte Carlo Method. The Risk Quotient (RQ) results show that the low-risk area covers 10,000 square meters, where the predicted concentrations of benzene are between 1 and 1.2?µg L-1. However, the high-risk area covers almost 200,000 square meters. Contrary to FEM, the majority of the FDM and analytical predictions were too high and fell outside the high boundary of the experimental result. The EEMMS is a unique risk assessment tool that can be used for impacts on water resource quality, biodiversity, fate of pollutants in ecosystem, climate change, etc.
