DNAPL Surface Chemistry: Its Impact on DNAPL Distribution in the Vadose Zone and its Manipulation to Enhance Remediation
The primary hypothesis of this work is that surface-active chemicals and/or microorganisms present in the unsaturated zone can significantly alter interfacial phenomena governing the migration of DNAPLs, thereby affecting the accessibility of a DNAPL during remediation efforts. The surface-active materials are present in complex NAPL mixtures and are produced through microbial metabolic processes. The overall goal of this proposed research is to understand the role of and changes in interfacial phenomena on the accessibility of DNAPL in the vadose zone.
