Assessment of natural attenuation of volatile aromatic hydrocarbons in agricultural soil contaminated with diesel fuel.
A diesel fuel spill was simulated on a 12-m(2) plot of agricultural land, at a concentration of 1 Lm(-2) of soil. The natural attenuation of Volatile Aromatic Hydrocarbons (VAHs) was monitored at different soil depths over a period of 50 days. The natural attenuation of VAHs in the surface layer would be attributed to two processes, namely: volatilisation (mainly linked to the boiling point of ...
متن کاملAnalytical modelling of stable isotope fractionation of volatile organic compounds in the unsaturated zone.
Analytical models were developed that simulate stable isotope ratios of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) near a point source contamination in the unsaturated zone. The models describe diffusive transport of VOCs, biodegradation and source ageing. The mass transport is governed by Fick's law for diffusion. The equation for reactive transport of VOCs in the soil gas phase was solved for differen...
متن کاملNatural attenuation of zinc pollution in smelter-affected soil.
Previous synchrotron X-ray microprobe measurements of Zn speciation in contaminated and uncontaminated soils have identified phyllosilicate as the main sequestration phase. The emphasis now is focused on comparing the nature and properties of neoformed and geogenic phyllosilicate species to understand natural attenuation processes. Refined structural characterization of the two types of Zn-cont...
متن کاملNon-Passive Transport of Volatile Organic Compounds in the Unsaturated Zone
1 2 A detailed model was formulated to describe the non-passive transport of water-soluble 3 chemicals in the unsaturated zone and used to illustrate one-dimensional infiltration and 4 redistribution of alcohol-water mixtures. The model includes the dependence of density, 5 viscosity, surface tension, molecular diffusion coefficient in the liquid phase, and gas-liquid 6 partition coefficient on...
متن کاملEffect of Water Table Fluctuation on Barometric Pumping in Soil Unsaturated Zone
An analytical one-dimensional model for vertical transmission of barometric pressure in soil unsaturated zone has been developed to examine the effect of free boundary caused by water table. The model is applicable to a special case in which the water table moves in according to the pressure with high barometric efficiency. Ambient sinusoidal pressure fluctuation is assumed at the soil surface....
