REIBLEI AND KATERINA DEMNEROVA 1 Hazardous Substance Research Center/South and Southwest, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803 2 Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology, Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague, Czech Republic On May 24, 2001, a total of 102 students and lecturers participated in an Advanced Study Institute (ASI) sponsored by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) under our direction. The Institute was focused on in situ and onsite management of contaminated sites. The objective of the Institute was to balance state of the art science with techniques for field application of a variety of technologies for in situ assessment and remediation of contaminated sites. Many of the lecturers were drawn from the ranks of the Hazardous Substance Research Centers, multi-university consortia that have been funded by the US Environmental Protection Agency to conduct research and technology transfer designed to promote risk-based management and control of hazardous substances for the nation. The Centers have made special contributions to the areas of in situ and onsite assessment and remediation of contaminated sites. Such approaches have the potential for being significantly less expensive than other assessment and remediation approaches while maintaining accuracy and effectiveness. Cost-effective remedial and management approaches that are also effective in minimizing exposure and risk to human health and the environment are a critical need throughout the world but particularly in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union where resources that can be devoted to environmental cleanup are especially limited.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transport and dissolution of residual non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLS) trapped in water saturated porous media is a problem pertinent to both environmental and petrochemical industries. In this work we have quantitatively examined the complete dissolution of residual entrapped NAPL at the pore-scale in three dimensions using refractive index matching techniques along with planar laser induced fluorescence. The results yielded pore-scale information regarding ganglia volume, surface area, and position over time at various Capillary numbers. We found that with increasing Capillary numbers, the time for total dissolution decreased. In addition, it appears that large ganglia exhibit fractal area to volume scaling. We were also able to examine the distributions of the ganglia in the direction of flow over time. The use of low-frequency flow pulsations as a removal technique was also examined. A two dimensional micro model was used for these studies. We found that for this system, lower frequencies and higher amplitudes were more effective in NAPL removal due to breakup and mobilization. We also examined the effect of increasing amplitude and continuous versus pulsed stimulation. In addition, mass transport in the presence of a surfactant was also enhanced due to flow pulsation with lower frequencies and higher amplitudes again being most effective.

This book was released on 2014-04-22 with total page 759 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to help engineers and scientists better understand dense nonaqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) contamination of groundwater and the methods and technology used for characterization and remediation. Remediation of DNAPL source zones is very difficult and controversial and must be based on state-of-the-art knowledge of the behavior (transport and fate) of nonaqueous phase liquids in the subsurface and site specific geology, chemistry and hydrology. This volume is focused on the characterization and remediation of nonaqueous phase chlorinated solvents and it is hoped that mid-level engineers and scientists will find this book helpful in understanding the current state-of-practice of DNAPL source zone management and remediation.

Download or read book Characterization Dissolution and Enhanced Solubilization of Multicomponent Nonaqueous Phase Liquid in Porous Media written by Kenneth Cooper Carroll and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multicomponent nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPL) contaminating the subsurface can significantly inhibit remediation. One method of enhancing the rate of remediation of NAPL constituents, compared to pump-and-treat, involves source zone treatment with enhanced solubilization agents (ESAs) including cyclodextrins. Equilibrium cyclodextrin enhanced solubilization of simple 1, 2, and 3 component NAPL mixtures was examined to evaluate the applicability of Raoult's Law. The results suggest that Raoult's Law may be used to estimate equilibrium and early-time dynamic concentrations in contact with ideal NAPL mixtures, and Raoult's Law may be used to estimate cyclodextrin enhanced groundwater concentrations for ideal NAPL mixtures. Solubility enhancement of NAPL compounds was dependent on the cyclodextrin concentration and independent of NAPL composition. Column experiments and numerical modeling were used to evaluate the dissolution behavior of the NAPL mixtures in water and a cyclodextrin solution to estimate mass transfer rates. The aqueous multicomponent dissolution followed Raoult's Law, and the model-estimated lumped rate coefficients were independent of the NAPL composition. Addition of the cyclodextrin enhanced the dissolution and removal of compounds from residual NAPL due to an increase in the driving force (i.e. concentration gradient) and the mass transfer coefficient. The model results suggest that Raoult's Law is applicable for ideal NAPL mixture dissolution in water, but potential nonideality was observed and caused the model simulation to deviate from the dissolution behavior for NAPL mixture cyclodextrin experiments. The cyclodextrin dissolution experiments were less rate-limited than aqueous dissolution, and the mass transfer coefficients were quantified with the model. The results of the model suggest that NAPL mixture nonideality and intra-NAPL diffusion may also impact enhanced dissolution behavior. Additionally, the importance of NAPL mixture characterization was illustrated by evaluation of a mixture of PCE (tetrachloroethene) and diesel fuel collected from a site in Tucson, Arizona. A sample from the site was used to create mixtures with increasing PCE in the NAPL. Chemical evaluation of the complex NAPL was conducted, and physical property and phase partitioning testing was performed, which demonstrated the effect of NAPL composition on its distribution, interphase mass transfer, and potential mobilization.
