Description

Performance assessment of the Saligny site proposed for LIL waste disposal requests reliable models for contaminant transport and dispersion through the geological formations and aquifers. The modelling of vadose zone of the Saligny site was completed successfully. The modelling efforts are continuously combined with the experimental work in order to achieve a reliable model of the saturated zone. Successive simulations of water flow in steady-state and transient conditions as well as the existing experimental in field data led to a more accurate image of the main aquifer hydrogeology for the modelled zone, quite different than the initial concept. According to the new simulations, good predictions of the water heads can be achieved for an incoming flux of 0.003 kg/s applied on the south-east side and for a discharge on the north and north-east side.
