Book excerpt: Hydrology covers the fundamentals of hydrology and hydrogeology, taking an environmental slant dictated by the emphasis in recent times for the remediation of contaminated aquifers and surface-water bodies as well as a demand for new designs that impose the least negative impact on the natural environment. Major topics covered include hydrological principles, groundwater flow, groundwater contamination and clean-up, groundwater applications to civil engineering, well hydraulics, and surface water. Additional topics addressed include flood analysis, flood control, and both ground-water and surface-water applications to civil engineering design.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rotary air stripping was researched and developed to remove volatile organic contaminants from groundwater. The Traverse Group, Inc, Ann Arbor MI, was contracted under a joint funding venture by the US Coast Guard and the US Air Force to evaluate feasibility of using rotary air stripping to treat water contaminated with benzene, toluene, xylenes, trichloroethylene, 1,2,dichloroethane, and tetrachloroethylene. A site of groundwater contamination at the US Coast Guard Station, Traverse City MI provided a readily available source of contaminated water for this work. A prototype rotary air stripper (RAS), manufactured specifically for this project, was installed onsite in Traverse City MI. The RAS (consisting of a packed bed 1.7 feet in diameter by 1.2 feet thick) was evaluated over a range of contaminant concentrations (63 to 19,000 ppb), liquid flow rates (50 to 120 gpm), air to water ratios (10:1 to 170:1 vol/vol), and rotor speeds (365 to 875 rpms). The effect of each parameter on removal efficiency was analyzed. Generally, removal efficiencies in excess of 99 percent were achieved for all contaminants (except 1,2-DCE) at an air-to-water ratio and rotor speed of 30:1 vol/vol and 435 rpms, respectively.

Book excerpt: Air stripping is an economical and efficient method of removing dissolved volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from contaminated groundwater. Air strippers, however, produce a vent air stream, which must meet the local air quality limits. If the VOC content exceeds the limits, direct discharge is not possible; therefore, a carbon adsorption VOC capture system is used to treat the vent air. This treatment step adds a cost of at least $50/lb of VOC captured. In this program, a combined air stripper/membrane vapor separation system was constructed and demonstrated in the laboratory. The membrane system captures VOCs from the stripper vent stream at a projected cost of $15/lb VOC for a water VOC content of 5 ppmw, and $75/lb VOC for a water VOC content of 1 ppmw. The VOCs are recovered as a small, concentrated liquid fraction for disposal or solvent recycling. The concept has been demonstrated in experiments with a system capable of handling up to 150,000 gpd of water. The existing demonstration system is available for field tests at a DOE facility or remediation site. Replacement of the current short air stripping tower (effective height 3 m) with a taller tower is recommended to improve VOC removal.

Download or read book Removal of Organics from Water wastewater by Membrane Air stripping written by Hassan Mahmud and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Removal and recovery of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from industrial wastewater and groundwater has become increasingly important due to stringent environmental regulations. Membrane air-stripping (MAS), using microporous polypropylene hollow fiber membrane modules, is one of the most promising processes for this purpose. The mass transfer of water and VOCs in MAS was studied using such a module, with air-flow on the lumen side and liquid cross-flow on the shell side. Chloroform, toluene and their mixture were used as model VOCs. Water transport experiments showed that mass transport was significantly decreased when the membrane had been in contact with water for prolonged periods. It was hypothesized the increased mass transfer resistance was due to water condensation in a fraction of the membrane pores. MAS of chloroform from aqueous solutions confirmed the additional mass transfer resistance with prior exposure to water. It was concluded that membrane pores were completely air-filled at the start and became partially wetted with water after prolonged period during the MAS process. The currently existing models are able to predict the performance only for either completely air-filled or liquid-filled pores. A modification of an existing model was proposed to take into account diffusion through the partially water-filled pores, as well as the partially air-filled pores. It was found that the model predictions agreed well with the experimental data. This hypothesis also provided a plausible explanation for the conflicting literature values of the membrane mass transfer resistance. It was also found that the membrane mass transfer resistance of the partially water-filled pores was two orders of magnitude higher than that of air-filled pores. Leveque's (1928) correlation overestimates the local mass transfer coefficient in a cylindrical tube at low velocities. A modification of this correlation has been proposed to predict the local air film mass transfer coefficient at low air velocities. The proposed correlation predictions matches well with the experimental data. The overall mass transfer coefficients of chloroform obtained in this work for liquid cross-flow on the shell side were up to twice as high as those reported in the literature, even though our experiments were carried out at much lower water and air velocities. However, the air pressure drop on the lumen side was significantly higher than that for system with air flow on the shell side. The overall mass transfer coefficients did not change when the initial chloroform concentration in the feed ranged from 81 to 908 ppm. MAS process was found effective in concentrating chloroform to more than 90% from a feed aqueous solution of ppm levels. The adsorption of toluene had strong detrimental impact on the performance of the polypropylene hollow fiber module. It is hypothesized that the toluene sorption resulted in swelling of the polypropylene fibers causing a reduction of the effective pore diameter and as a result of this, the toluene transport was substantially lower than expected. Due to this effect, the presence of toluene in the binary aqueous solution with chloroform significantly reduced the mass transport of chloroform compared to that with only chloroform. Henry's law constants were determined for individual chloroform and toluene as well as for their mixtures at 23°C and are reported. The effect of initial chloroform concentrations on Henry's law constant was experimentally examined.
