Evaluation of uncertainty parameters in risk assessment of agricultural chemicals on groundwater contamination
Risk assessment is meaningful to quantitatively define adverse effects on human health and natural environment and it is possible to choose the most effective action related to groundwater contamination. In this paper, parameter uncertainties in risk assessment in geo-environmental system are examined through a probabilistic application of deterministic contaminant transport model using Latin ...

A coupled simulation and fuzzy-rule-based method for assessing health risks at a petroleum-contaminated site
Risk assessment of contaminated sites is crucial for evaluating adverse health impacts on local communities, and provides effective decision support for site-remediation practices. In this study, a coupled simulation and fuzzy-rule-based method was proposed for health risk assessment of groundwater contamination, and applied to a petroleum contaminated site. Benzene concentrations under two ...

BOS 100 Takes on Carbon Tetrachloride at Oregon Site - Case Study
The subject property formerly operated as the Retail and Commercial Farm facility. The facility formerly stored and sold feed, farm equipment, and various farming chemicals (fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides, etc.). In 2015, prior to the potential sale of the property, a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) and subsequent Phase II ESA were undertaken. The Phase II ESA identified ...

Public health risk assessment of groundwater contamination in Batman, Turkey
In this study, a comprehensive analysis of groundwater was performed to assess contamination and phenol content in Batman, Turkey, particularly in residential areas near agriculture, livestock and oil industry facilities. From these areas, where potentially contaminated groundwater used for drinking and irrigation threatens public health, 30 groundwater samples were collected and analyzed for ...

Integrated fuzzy-stochastic risk assessment for contaminated groundwater systems
This study advances an integrated fuzzy-stochastic risk assessment (IFSRA) approach for the management of contaminated groundwater systems by systematically quantifying multiple uncertainties associated with site conditions and health impact criteria. The approach is based on fuzzy multi-attribute decision analysis, factorial designs, numerical modelling, and Monte Carlo simulation. The developed ...
