' Mass-Volume Calculation of Dissolved MTBE: 05 August to 26 September 2002 <br /> RAINWATER CAR WA$H -420 West Yosemite Avenue, Manteca CA <br /> ' Assumptions <br /> ' a A total volume of 58,461 gallons was extracted from well EW-1 between 05 August and 26 <br /> September 2002 (based on effluent flow meter observations) <br /> ' o 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= (58,461 gallons)(3 79 1/gal) =221,5671 processed water <br /> Multiplying the volume of the processed water by the average MTBE concentration (7,450 µg/I <br /> ' yields the approximate mass of MTBE removed from processed water <br /> MMTBE= (221,5 6 7 1)(0 00000745 kg/l) = 1.6 kg MTBE <br /> A converstion factor of 2 205 lb/kg can be used to convert kilograms of MTBE to pounds of MTBE <br /> ' MMTBE= (I 6 kg MTBE)(2 205 lb/kg) =3.5 lb MTBE <br /> 1 <br /> Advanced GeoEnriroamental,Inc <br /> 1 <br /> I { <br /> I I <br />
