Water displacement during sparging under perched water-table conditions

  • 1. Environmental Protection Agency, Ada, OK (United States). R.S. Kerr Environmental Research Lab.

Description

The feasibility of using sparging to purposefully displace perched water in silt loam soils was evaluated at a field site in northwestern Oklahoma. Soils and groundwater are contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons, trichloroethene (TCE), and vinyl chloride. During sparging, a transient response in water level measurements was observed in observation wells which is attributed to water displacement. Evidence of water displacement was manifested by water-table collapse upon the cessation of sparging
