Abstract: Little attention is usually given to estimating the importance of natural discharge in cleanup efforts, although it has long been recognized that volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can be discharged from a contaminated ...

Abstract: A laboratory testing program was conducted to identify and interpret the fundamental factors affecting the performance of a new microchip-laser based fluorescence sensor in soil and ground water. Investigations were performed ...

Abstract: This paper describes a series of laboratory tests conducted to assess the performance of a novel fluorescence-based in situ sensor for environmental contaminants. The sensor, which can be deployed downhole in a monitoring ...
