' Mass-Volume Calculation of Dissolved MTBE: 20 April to 09 May 2005 <br /> RAINWATER CAR WASH - 420 West Yosemite Avenue, Manteca CA <br /> ' <br /> Assumptions <br /> ' • A total volume of 91,106 gallons was extracted from well EW-1 between 20 April&09 May <br /> 2005 (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= (91,106 gallons)(3 791/gal) =345,2921 processed water <br /> Multiplying the volume of the processed water by the average April and the May 2005 MTBE <br /> ' concentrations(1,300 µg/1)yields the approximate mass of MTBE removed from processed water <br /> i <br /> MMTBE = (345,2921)(0 000001300 kg/l)=0.45 kg MTBE <br /> ' A converstion factor oft 205 lb/kg can be used to convert kilograms ofMTBE to pounds of MTBE <br /> ' • MM.,-BE _ (0 45 kg MTBE)(2 205 lb/kg)=0.99 lb MTBE <br /> 1 <br /> Advaneed GeoEnvironmentaf,Inc. <br /> 1 <br />
