Migration of pollutants in groundwater. V. Modelling the removal of DNAPL droplets by flushing.

Abstract:

:Mathematical models are developed for the flushing of droplets of dense nonaqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) distributed in aquifers. The kinetics of the diffusion of dissolved volatile organic compound (VOC) from the droplets into the moving liquid is included in the models. Models are developed for the flushing of DNAPL droplets in lab columns, in aquifers with a one-dimensional radial flow field and in quiescent aquifers in which a single well screened at the bottom is used to bring about the flushing. Some representative results are given.
