Partitioning tracers for in-situ detection and quantification of dense nonaqueous. 1997 annual progress report
'The overall goal of the proposed project is to explore the use of partitioning tracers to characterize dense nonaqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) in subsurface systems. Bulk-phase partitioning tracers will be investigated to detect and determine DNAPL saturation, while interface partitioning tracers will be investigated to measure the area of the DNAPL-water interface. The specific objectives that will be addressed to accomplish this goal are: (1) investigate the use of partitioning tracers to detect and determine both the saturation and interfacial area of DNAPLs in saturated porous media; (2) investigate the effect of rate-limited mass transfer on the transport behavior of partitioning tracers; (3) investigate the effect of porous-media heterogeneity on the transport behavior of partitioning tracers; and (4) develop and evaluate mathematical models capable of simulating the transport of partitioning tracers in complex systems.'
