Abstract: An index for ranking the mobility of organic compounds in soil systems is presented. The index is defined as the ratio of time required for an organic constituent to travel through a given depth of soil (e.g., soil treatment ...

Abstract: Transformation kinetics, corrected for abiotic loss and for volatilization, of 14 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds were studied in two nonacclimated soils. Mean volatilization losses for naphthalene and ...

Abstract: A methodology developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) for evaluating the mass transport potential of hazardous organic compounds through environmental pathways is used to determine the potential ...

Abstract: Laboratory tests were conducted to determine the effect of soil gas oxygen concentration on the degradation and mineralization of spiked
