The average flow rate was calculated at 280 cubic feet per minute <br /> (nomograph). The operational period was 506 hours; running time was reduced due to well installation <br /> (Table 1). <br /> C = 1,030 µg/1=0.00103 kg/m' <br /> Q =280 ft'/min <br /> t =506 hours <br /> Converting Q to m3/hour yields: <br /> Q=(280 ft'/min)•(60 min/hour)• (0.0283168m'/ft3)=473.2 m'/hour <br /> M=C• Q•t=(0.00103 kg/m3)• (473.2 m/hour)• (506 hours)=246.6 kg of gasoline <br /> Converting kg of gasoline to pounds of gasoline yields: <br /> 246.6 kg of gas•2.2046 lbs./kg=543.7 lbs of gasoline <br /> Converting pounds of gasoline to gallons of gasoline yields: <br /> 543.7 lbs.of gas• 0.16 gal of gas/lbs.of gas 86.99 gallons of gasoline <br /> 18 August to 12 September 2005 <br /> 1) The average analytical TPH-g concentration for this time interval was determined to be 1,065 µg/1(08-18+ <br /> 09-12/2= 1,400+730/2= 1,065 µg/1). The average flow rate was calculated at 280 cubic feet per minute <br /> (nomograph);the operational period was reduced due well installation, equal to 535 hours of running time <br /> (Table 1). <br /> C = 1,065 µg/1=0.001065 kg/m3 <br /> Q =280 ft/min <br /> t =535 hours <br /> Converting Q to m3/hour yields: <br /> Q=(280 ft/min)•(60 min/hour)• (0.0283168m3/ft')=473.2 m'/hour <br /> M=C•Q•t=(0.001065 kg/m3)•(473.2 m'/hour)• (535 hours)= 269.6 kg of gasoline <br /> Converting kg of gasoline to pounds of gasoline yields: <br /> 269.6 kg of gas•2.2046 lbs/kg=594.4 lbs of gasoline <br /> Converting pounds of gasoline to gallons of gasoline yields: <br /> 594.4 lbs.of gas •0.16 gal of gas/lbs of gas 95.1 gallons of gasoline <br /> • <br /> Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc. <br />
