Resource Recovery, Confinement, and Remediation of Environmental Hazards

Based on workshops on theoretical, computational, and experimental advances in the theory of phenomena in porous media. This title focuses on the mathematical problems arising in groundwater transport of contamination, and remediation of biological, chemical and radioactive waste. It includes the processes underlying petroleum recovery.
