开发了一个地理信息系统模型，用于定位饮用水处理残余物的单填料施工现场。适宜性主要由场地防止残留物成分渗入地下水的能力来确定。该模型考虑了土地利用、地形、基岩地质、土壤和州监管标准。以镉为代表性污染物进行了吸附实验，以评估土壤限制处理残余迁移的能力。仅适用于宾夕法尼亚州东南部1.6平方公里（仅适用于宾夕法尼亚州东南部1.6平方公里）的单一填土。该模型的主要优点是快速消除不符合监管或地下水保护标准的地块。 由于该模型确定了能够提供最大环境保护的场地，因此在赢得公众对处置设施的接受方面，它也是一个有价值的帮助。包括7个参考文献、表格、图表。

A geographic information system model was developed to locate monofill construction sites for drinking water treatment residuals. Suitability was defined primarily by a site's capacity to prevent leaching of constituents of the residual to groundwater. The model considered land use, topography, bedrock geology, soils, and state regulatory criteria. Adsorption experiments were conducted using cadmium as a representative pollutant to assess the ability of the soils to limit treatment residual migration. Applied in southeastern Pennsylvania, the methodology identified only 6.37 sq mi (16.5 km2), 2.1 percent of the area screened, as suitable for monofills. The major strength of this model is the quick elimination of parcels that fail to meet regulatory or groundwater protection standards. Because it identifies sites that afford the greatest environmental protection, the model is also a valuable aid in winning public acceptance of disposal facilities.
