Accumulation of Metabolic Intermediates during Shock Loads in Biological Fluidized Bed Reactors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Groundwater containing benzene, toluene, and
Effect of Water Saturation on Retardation of Ground-Water Contaminants
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study is the first to report the effect of water saturation on the retardation of nonionic organic compounds under dynamic conditions. Three nonaggregated sandy soil samples, that varied in their organic carbon content ...
Evaluation of Modeling Approaches for Sorption–Desorption Processes in Flow-Through Soil Columns
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The influence of soil organic matter and pore water velocity on the transport of naphthalene in flow-through columns was investigated. Pulse injection experiments were conducted using three different soils (with 0%, 1.9%, ...
Hydraulic Conductivity of Soil Sorptive Zones Created by In Situ Injection of a Cationic Surfactant
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The sorptive capabilities of soils for organic contaminants can be greatly enhanced by treatment with cationic surfactants, and this has been suggested as a potential in situ approach for contaminant plume management. The ...
Change in Gasoline Constituent Mass Transfer during Soil Venting
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The mass transfer of gasoline constituents [benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes (BTEX), and naphthalene] to air during laboratory‐simulated soil vapor extraction (referred to here as soil venting) was determined. Soil ...
Hydraulic Conductivities of Cationic Surfactant Modified Soil Mixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Surfactant-enhanced sorbent zones have potential utility for contaminant plume management in the subsurface. Changes in the hydraulic properties associated with the formation of such zones were studied by measuring hydraulic ...
