Sorbent Wicking Device for Sampling Hydrophobic Organic Compounds in Unsaturated Soil Pore Water. I: Design and Hydraulic Characteristics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The hydraulic characteristics of horizontally installed sorbent wick sampling devices were evaluated through wick tracer studies and laboratory soil column experiments to assess the influence of horizontal wick length and ...
Sorbent Wicking Device for Sampling Hydrophobic Organic Compounds in Unsaturated Soil Pore Water. II: Chemical Capture, Recovery, and Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Experiments investigated the chemical capture and quantitative recovery of chlorinated hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs) sampled from the pore-water of unsaturated soils with a new in situ sorbent wicking device. The ...
Effect of Oil on Polychlorinated Biphenyl Phase Partitioning during Land Biotreatment of Impacted Sediment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study evaluated the partitioning of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) during long-term, passive, land biotreatment of PCB-impacted industrial lagoon sediments. Over six years under field conditions, two land treatment ...
