Multiphase numerical simulations indicate that air sparging may be an efficient remediation technology for subsurface DNAPLs. Measurement of the sparging-induced pressure increase below the water table, which may be performed in the field, is recommended as the best method for determining the radius of influence. The authors use numerical simulations to support this recommendation, and to illustrate the transient and steady-state aquifer behavior during sparging.
