The document discusses vapor phase remediation technologies, specifically soil vapor extraction (SVE). It provides information on SVE, including that it extracts contaminants from subsurface soil in vapor form by applying vacuum through wells. Key factors that affect SVE design and effectiveness are discussed, such as soil properties, depth to water table, and concentration/type of contaminants. Limitations include systems being ineffective in saturated zones or soils with high fines or moisture content requiring higher vacuums. Different types of airflow measurements like SCFM, ACFM and ICFM are also explained.

What is Soil Vapor Extraction ?
Soil Vapor Extraction (SVE) extracts contaminants for the
subsurface soil in a vapor form. Therefore , SVE systems
are designed to remove contaminants that have a
tendency to volatilize or evaporate easily such as volatile
organic compounds (VOC’s) and some semi-volatile
organic compounds ( SVOC’s) beneath the ground surface
in the unsaturated zone IE: Vadose zone. By applying a
vacuum through a series of underground wells,
contaminants are pulled to the surface as vapor or gas.

Soil Vapor Extraction (SVE)
• Extracts contaminants from
the subsurface soil in a vapor
form
• Only works on contaminants
which volatilize (or evaporate)
easily
• Vacuum through underground
wells
• Contaminants pulled to
surface as vapor or gas
• Will not remove heavy oils,
metals, PCB’s or dioxins

Soil Vapor Extraction
Applicability
The target contaminants group for in situ SVE are VOC’s and some
fuels. The technology is typically applicable only to volatile
compounds with a Henry’s law constant greater than 0.01 or a vapor
pressure greater than 0.5 mm Hg ( 0.02 inches Hg) Other factors,
such as moisture content, organic content, and air permeability of the
soil, will affect the SVE’s effectiveness. In situ SVE will not remove
heavy oils, metals, PCB’s, or dioxins.
Because the process involves a continuous flow of air through the
soil, however, it often promotes the in situ biodegradation of low-
volatility organic compounds that may be present.

Soil Vapor Extraction
Design Considerations
• Soil that has high percentage of fines and a
high degree of saturation will require higher
vacuums
• Large screen intervals are required in
extraction wells with highly variable
permeability's or stratification, which may
result in uneven delivery of gas flow from
contaminated regions

Soil Vapor Extraction
Design Considerations (continued)
• Soil that has high organic content or is extremely dry
has a high sorption capacity for VOC’s, which reduce
removal rates
• SVE is not effective in the saturated zone; however,
lowering the water table can expose more of the
contaminated zone to the SVE ( LNAPLS)
• Exhaust air from the in situ SVE system may require
treatment
• Residual liquids may require treatment or disposal

First Thing -Establish CFM
What are you measuring?
• CFM is a CFM .. Or is it ?
• SCFM, ACFM, ICFM… What does it mean ?

24. GROUND WATER SAMPLING • WATER LEVEL & PRESSURE • WATER SAMPLE FILTRATION • GROUND WATER REMEDIATION • GEOPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS
SCFM
Definition of SCFM– the term SCFM stands for Standard
Cubic Feet Per Minute. It is referenced to a pre-specified
atmospheric pressure, temperature, and relative
humidity.
SCFM is referenced to 14.7 PSIA, 68 degrees F, and 0%
relative humidity.
By specifying these parameters, the mass flow of
compressed air and gas is clearly defined.

25. GROUND WATER SAMPLING • WATER LEVEL & PRESSURE • WATER SAMPLE FILTRATION • GROUND WATER REMEDIATION • GEOPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS
ACFM
Definition of ACFM– the term ACFM stands for Actual Cubic Feet Per
Minute.
The ACFM is dependent on actual site conditions: PSIA,
temperature, relative humidity.
By specifying these parameters, the mass flow of compressed air
and gas is defined on actual site conditions.
The larger the difference between site conditions and SCF conditions,
the larger the difference between SCF and ACF.

26. GROUND WATER SAMPLING • WATER LEVEL & PRESSURE • WATER SAMPLE FILTRATION • GROUND WATER REMEDIATION • GEOPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS
ICFM
Definition of ICFM– the term ICFM stands for Inlet Cubic Feet Per Minute.
The ICFM is dependent on the amount of air flow that enter in through the
air filter on the equipment
Vacuum blowers / Pressure Blower manufacturer usually rated at SCFM
conditions ….. BUT WHEN ARE YOU REALLY AT THOSE CONDITIONS ??
QUESTION: When you are measuring CFM, are you correcting for the
location conditions or are you assuming it is SCFM because the meters says
it reads in SCFM ?

What is Air Sparging?
Since SVE cannot remove contaminants in the
saturated zone that lies below the water table,
Air Sparging technology pushes air into the
saturated zone to help flush (bubble) the
contaminants up into the unsaturated zone
where the SVE extraction wells can remove
them.
2650 East 40th Avenue • Denver, Colorado 80205 • www.geotechenv.com
38. GROUND WATER SAMPLING • WATER LEVEL & PRESSURE • WATER SAMPLE FILTRATION • GROUND WATER REMEDIATION • GEOPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS
Air Sparging
• The process of blowing air directly into the ground
water.
• As the bubbles rise, the contaminants are removed
from the groundwater by physical contact with the air
(i.e., stripping).
• Air and contaminants are carried up into the
unsaturated zone (i.e., soil).
• As the contaminants move into the soil, a soil vapor
extraction system is usually used to remove vapors.

39. GROUND WATER SAMPLING • WATER LEVEL & PRESSURE • WATER SAMPLE FILTRATION • GROUND WATER REMEDIATION • GEOPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS
Air Sparging
Applicability & Limitations
For Air Sparging to be successful, the soil in the saturated zone must
be loose enough to allow injected air to readily escape up into the
unsaturated zone. Sites where coarse grained soil, sand, gravel are
good candidates. Tight clays and poor permeable soil only inhibit the
effectiveness of this technology. You can spend a lot of money on
electricity and accomplish very little when the soil are not conducive
for Air Sparging technology.
As with SVE, the added benefit of Air Sparging is that it provides an
oxygen source which helps stimulate aerobic biodegradation.

40. GROUND WATER SAMPLING • WATER LEVEL & PRESSURE • WATER SAMPLE FILTRATION • GROUND WATER REMEDIATION • GEOPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS
Before you can size an Air Sparge
Blower – Do a pilot test
• As with the SVE pilot, you will need to know just
how much air flow and PSIG will be required to
push the air into the formation.
• Also when incorporating the technology with an
SVE system how much is enough ? Too much ?
• Rule of thumb: size the Air Sparge unit air flow
at 1/3rd to 1/5th of the SVE system air flow. You
will want to be able to capture the vapors and not
allow for off-site migration.
