OSTI ID:6351685
This report presents and discusses the results of a field investigation of volatile hydrocarbon emissions from an operating hazardous waste land treatment facility at a major West Coast petroleum refinery. The study was conducted over an 18-day period during September 1987 and involved the collection of oily waste, soil, and air samples to ascertain the environmental fate of oil and specific organic constituents applied to a 96,000 ft{sup 2} landfarm test plot. In addition, the project involved the fabrication and testing of two devices to capture emissions from the landfarm surface: an isolation flux chamber and an experimental wind tunnel device.
