1 <br /> ' Mass-Volume Calculation of]Dissolved MTBE: 26 Dec. 2003 to 15 Jan. 2004 <br /> RAINWATER CAR WASH - 420 West Yosemite Avenue, Manteca CA <br /> Assumptions <br /> ' Y A total volume of 59,172 gallons was extracted from well EW-1 between 26 December 2003 <br /> and 15 January 2004 (based on influent flow meter observations) <br /> • Data collected from the pump and treat Influent were representative of general extracted <br /> ground water conditions <br /> ' One gallon of water is equivalent to 3 79 liters, so the volume of processed water is given by <br /> V= (59,172 gallons)(3 79 1/gal) =224,262 I processed water <br /> Multiplying the volume of the processed wafer by the average of the December 2003 and the January <br /> ' 2004 MTBE concentrations (4,950 gg/1) yields the approximate mass of MTBE removed from <br /> processed water <br /> ' MYITBS= (224,2621)(0 000004950 kg/1) = 1.11 kg MTBE <br /> A converstion factor of 2 205 lb/kg can be used to convert kilograms of MTBE to pounds of MTBE <br /> lie MSB= (1 11 kg MTBE)(2 205 lb/kg) = 2.45 lb MTBE <br /> 1 <br /> • Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc <br /> 1 <br />
