tMass-Volume Calculation of Dissolved MTBE: 26 September to 18 October 2002 <br /> • RAINWATER CAR WASH - 420 West Yosemjte Avenue, Manteca CA <br /> ' Assumptions <br /> e A total volume of 55,440 gallons was extracted from well EW-1 between 26 September and <br /> 18 October 2002 (based on average 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=(55,440 gallons)(3 791/gal) =210,1181 processed water <br /> Multiplying the volume of the processed water by the average MTBE concentration (6,050 µg/1) <br /> yields the approximate mass of MTBE removed from processed water <br /> MMTBE =(210,118 1)(0 00000605 kg/0 = 1.3 kg MTBE <br /> ' A converstion factor of 2 205 ib/kg can be used to convert kilograms ofMTBE to pounds ofMTBE <br /> ' MmTBE = (1 3 kg MTBE)(2 205 lb/kg)=2.87 lb MTBE <br /> 1 <br /> ' Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc <br />
