Download or read book Comparison of Steady State Evaporation Models for Toxic Chemical Spills written by Teri L. Vossler and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States Air Force handles and stores a number of toxic and hazardous chemicals. Associated with this activity is the threat of accidental release. To determine the downwind threat of a spilled liquid chemical, one must estimate the evaporation rate of the spilled chemical. A steady state evaporation model is one that calculates the temperature of the spilled chemical pool based on the net energy input into the pool from all possible sources. The pool temperature is used to calculate the evaporation rate. Three steady state evaporation models are compared, and the most appropriate calculation for each energy input into the pool is identified. A new steady state evaporation model is presented based on the comparisons. Sensitivity studies are presented in support of the new model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1970s, experts have recognized that petroleum pollutants were being discharged in marine waters worldwide, from oil spills, vessel operations, and land-based sources. Public attention to oil spills has forced improvements. Still, a considerable amount of oil is discharged yearly into sensitive coastal environments. Oil in the Sea provides the best available estimate of oil pollutant discharge into marine waters, including an evaluation of the methods for assessing petroleum load and a discussion about the concerns these loads represent. Featuring close-up looks at the Exxon Valdez spill and other notable events, the book identifies important research questions and makes recommendations for better analysis ofâ€"and more effective measures againstâ€"pollutant discharge. The book discusses: Inputâ€"where the discharges come from, including the role of two-stroke engines used on recreational craft. Behavior or fateâ€"how oil is affected by processes such as evaporation as it moves through the marine environment. Effectsâ€"what we know about the effects of petroleum hydrocarbons on marine organisms and ecosystems. Providing a needed update on a problem of international importance, this book will be of interest to energy policy makers, industry officials and managers, engineers and researchers, and advocates for the marine environment.
