Coolside waste management research. Quarterly progress report, October 1, 1992--December 31, 1992
The data obtained from both the laboratory and field columns include pH, conductivity and ionic concentrations. This solute data must be manipulated to infer chemical species concentrations and the Mineral phases present in the column environment. For this a venerable and well-tested Public domain program WATEQ4F (reference: WATEQ4F with Revised Thermodynamic Data Base and Test Cases for Calculating Speciation of Major, Trace, and Redox Elements in Natural Waters. USGS Open File Report 91-183. James W. Ball and D. Kirk Nordstrom) was selected. This program, written in Fortran, expects a single input file and produces a single output file. Given the large amount of data collected in column experiments and the difficulty of extracting relevant data from the voluminous output provided by this program, work is being performed to simplify the data reduction process.
