s <br /> Mass-Volume Calculation of Dissolved MTBE: 24 February to 27 March 2003 <br /> RAINWATER CAR WASH - 420 West Yosemite Avenue, Manteca CA <br /> ' Assumptions <br /> • A total volume of 14,849 gallons was extracted from well EW-1 between 24 February <br /> and 27 March 2003 (based on influent flow meter observations) <br /> ' Data collected from the pump and treat influent were representative of general <br /> extracted 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= (14,849 gallons)(3 79 //gal) = 56,278 l processed water <br /> I <br /> Multiplying the volume of the processed water by the average MTBE concentration <br /> ' (6,500 gg/1) yields the approximate mass of MTBE removed from processed water <br /> lie MMTBE_ (56,278 I)(0 00000650 kg/0 = 0.37 kg MTBE <br /> A converstion factor of 2 205 lb/kg can be used to convert kilograms of MTBE to pounds <br /> of MTBE <br /> MwBE_ (0 37 kg MTBE)(2 205 lb/kg) = 0.81 lb MTBE <br /> • <br /> ' Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc <br /> 1 <br />
