Abstract

Bioventing is a technology used to abate the presence of pollutants in thesubsoil.Microorganisms biodegrade the pollutant but the biochemical reactionrequires oxygen and so an airow is induced in the subsoil by means ofinjection and/or extraction wells.Costs, final result and decontamination time are reliant on contaminanttype, soil permeability and several other factors, but oxygen subsoil concentrationplays a very important role. For this reason a rational choice of welllocation and ow rate is required.The mathematical definition of the optimal design problem will be setupstarting from a simplified mathematical model describing the bioventingsystem.A formal definition of decontaminated subsoil will be given and the set ofsystem control variables will be identified. Several optimimization strategiessuch as cost minimization, removal rate maximization and time optimizationwill be mathematically described.
