Investigation of Scale-Dependent Groundwater/Surface-water Exchange in Rivers by Gradient Self-Potential Logging: Numerical Modeling and Field Experiments

Journal Article Ikard, Scott J. ; Briggs, Martin A. ; Lane, John W. - Journal of Environmental and Engineering Geophysics

Exchanges of groundwater and surface-water are fundamental to a wide range of water-supply and water-quality management issues but challenging to map beyond the reach scale. Waterborne gradient self-potential (SP) measurements are directly sensitive to water flow through riverbed sediments and can be used to infer exchange locations, direction (gain versus loss), scale, and relative changes, but to date applications to river corridor hydrology are limited. Numerical modeling and field experiments were therefore performed herein, each emphasizing waterborne gradient SP logging for identifying and locating focused vertical groundwater discharge (surface-water gain) and recharge (surface-water loss) in a river.

Applying membrane technology to air stripping effluent for remediation of groundwater contaminated with volatile organic compounds

Journal Article Brown, J J ; Erickson, M D ; Beskid, N J - Hazardous Waste and Hazardous Materials

Remediation groundwater contaminated by volatile organic compounds (VOCs) requires cost- and technically-effective solutions. This paper reviews the options for VOC removal from remediation air streams, focusing on membrane separation. The basic separation science and technology, results of performance tests, and results of cost studies for membrane separation are presented. Competing technologies are discussed and compared with membrane separation. Membrane separation combined with air stripping will provide an economically and environmentally safe technology for remediation of VOC-contaminated groundwater and, as it matures, may become the preferred method. 9 refs., 6 figs., 2 tabs.

A full-scale pilot study to investigate the remediation potential of air sparging through a horizontal well oriented perpendicular to a contaminant plume: Preliminary results

Journal Article Wade, A ; Wallace, G W ; Seigwald, S F - Ground Water

A full-scale, one-year pilot study of a new design of air sparging system is being conducted at a site in the Midwest where plumes of TCE-contaminated ground water have been identified in an unconfined sand and gravel aquifer in which ground water flows at approximately 0.5 feet/day. TCE concentrations in the ground water range up to several thousand {micro}g/L. A horizontal sparging well and associated soil vapor extraction (SVE) system have been constructed perpendicular to a contaminant plume immediately downgradient from its source. In addition, a vertical sparging well and SVE system have been constructed at the source to acceleratemore »« less
The Oak Ridge Field Research Center : Advancing Scientific Understanding of the Transportation, Fate, and Remediation of Subsurface Contamination Sources and Plumes

Conference Watson, David

Historical research, development, and testing of nuclear materials across this country resulted in subsurface contamination that has been identified at over 7,000 discrete sites across the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) complex. With the end of the Cold War threat, DOE has shifted its emphasis to remediation, decommissioning, and decontamination of the immense volumes of contaminated groundwater, sediments, and structures at its sites. DOE currently is responsible for remediating 1.7 trillion gallons of contaminated groundwater, an amount equal to approximately four times the daily U.S. water consumption, and 40 million cubic meters of contaminated soil, enough to fill approximately 17more »« less

Flushing of organic contaminants from a groundwater plume at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal, Volume 1: Field and laboratory studies. (Draft report)

Technical Report Mackay, D M ; Thorbjarnarson, K W

During the summer of 1986, UCLA conducted a field experiment on flushing organic contaminents from a contaminated aquifer in the western tier of RMA. The objectives of the study were to: (1) Estimate the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer; (2) Estimate the degree to which TRCLE and 111TCE are retarded in their mobility due to sorption by the aquifer media; (3) Determine the effects of spatial variability of aquifer properties water flow and TRCLE and 111TCE flushing rates; and (4) Compare results of field and laboratory investigations. The laboratory analysed of coring samples indicated that both the hydraulic conductivity ofmore »« less
