Simulating the in situ oxidative treatment of chlorinated ethylenes by potassium permanganate

Abstract

Mathematical FormulationIn the following development of mathematical equations, it is assumed that there exists a zone of residual NAPL or a 3031

Permanganate Treatment of DNAPLs in Reactive Barriers and Source Zone Flooding Schemes

“…At the end of that study, a preliminary version of the code was operational (Zhang and Schwartz, 2000), but relatively rudimentary. Major emphases in the initial part of the present study were to improve the inputloutput structure of the code to make it more user friendly, to document the verification and other test problems, and to develop a detailed user's guide for the code.…”

“…General Formulation NAPL dissolution, chemical reactions, and solute mass transport in the imsitu chemical oxidization scheme (Zhang and Schwartz, 2000). The model incorporates a kinetic description of reactions between the MnO4-and the chlorinated ethylenes and the rate of dissolution of the NAPL.…”

Mass and Heat Transfer During Two-Phase Flow in Porous Media - Theory and Modeling

“…Local equilibrium models for multi-phase systems have been introduced and developed e.g. by Miller et al (1990); Powers et al (1992;Imhoff et al (1994); Zhang & Schwartz (2000) and have been used and advanced ever since. Let us consider a system with a liquid phase (denoted by subscript l) and a gaseous phase (denoted by subscript g) composed of air and water components.…”

“…where Q In the absence of a physically-based estimate of interfacial area in classical kinetic models, the mass transfer coefficient k κ α→β and the specific interfacial area a αβ are often lumped into one single parameter (Miller et al (1990); Powers et al (1992;; Imhoff et al (1994); Zhang & Schwartz (2000)). This yields, in a simplified notation,…”
