Project
Overview
Significant technology gaps limit our ability to characterize the
inventory and distribution of contaminants in the vadose and saturated
zones. The ideal solution to DNAPL analyses is to collect and present
to the detector an amount of DNAPL from a much larger volume of
soil. This technology provides an in situ method to heat a significant
volume of soil around a penetrometer probe within several minutes
(103-106 times > than ambient sampling/detection), and capture and
route vaporized DNAPL from this volume to a sensitive in situ detector/sampler.
