One of the major environmental concerns in water resources today is contamination of groundwater by organic compounds. This potential hazard for human health has generated major research efforts to better understand the behavior and fate of organic compounds in the subsurface and remediation technologies. One of the most problematic groundwater pollutant groups is the chlorinated hydrocarbons. These compounds are volatile organic compounds (VOCs) used as cleaners and degreasers by the dry cleaning and manufacturing industries over the last four decades. The other major organic group of concern in groundwater associated with gasoline spills is BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes).

当今水资源的主要环境问题之一是有机化合物对地下水的污染。这种对人类健康的潜在危害已经产生了重大的研究努力，以更好地了解地下有机化合物的行为和命运以及修复技术。最有问题的地下水污染物之一是氯代烃。这些化合物是挥发性有机化合物（VOC），在过去四十年中被干洗和制造业用作清洁剂和脱脂剂。与汽油泄漏有关的地下水中另一个主要的有机物是BTEX（苯、甲苯、乙苯、二甲苯）。
