Title: Experimental assessment and modeling of organic compound interphase mass-transfer rates in multiphase subsurface systems. Progress report

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10114389· OSTI ID:10114389

During the initial eight month period of this grant, work has been conducted on all facets of the project. Significant progress has been made in the design, construction and testing of the experimental apparatus. Investigation of methods for characterizing the physical forms of non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) residuals (globules or blobs) has led to a narrowing of possible approaches. Development of a numerical simulator that accomodates multiphase transport with mass transfer rate interactions is well underway.
