Abstract
Pump and treat is one of the oldest and mostly used methods in remediation of groundwater. Although this method has been criticized recently, it is still widely be used. The systems typically use one or more extraction and injection wells to hydraulically control the contamination plume. The purpose of studying a pump and treat system is to determine the appropriate location and discharge for the wells in the way that the contamination could be pumped out. In this study after reviewing some existing solutions for delineation the capture zone of single well a method to delineate the capture zone for arbitrary located wells is presented. This method can delineate a three dimensional capture...

Abstract
An accurate estimation of aquifer hydraulic parameters is required for groundwater modeling and proper management of vital groundwater resources. In situ measurements of aquifer hydraulic parameters are expensive and difficult. Traditionally, these parameters have been estimated by graphical methods that are approximate and time-consuming. As a result, nonlinear programming (NLP) techniques have been used extensively to estimate them. Despite the outperformance of NLP approaches over graphical methods, they tend to converge to local minima and typically suffer from a convergence problem. In this study, Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) methods are used to identify...
