' Mass-Volume Calculation of Dissolved MTBE; 22 May to 06 June 2002 <br /> RAINWATER CAR WASH- 420 West Yosemite Avenue, Manteca CA <br /> ' Assumptions <br /> ' A total volume of 35,935 gallons was extracted from well EW-1 between 22 May and 06 <br /> June 2002 (based on effluent flow meter observations) <br /> ' Data collected from the pump and treat influent were representative of general extracted <br /> ground water conditions <br /> ' One cubic foot of water contains 7 48 gallons, conversely, one gallon of water is equivalent to <br /> 0 1337 cubic feet, so the volume of processed water;s given by <br /> ' V=(35,935 gallons)(0 1337 ft/gal) =4,805 fe processed water <br /> ' One gallon of water weighs 8 337 lbs/gal at 60°F, so the mass of processed water is given by <br /> M"'r = (35,935 gallons)(8 337 lbs/gal) =299,590 lbs. processed water <br /> ' Multiplying the mass of the processed water bythe average MTBE concentration(19,500 gg/l)yields <br /> . the approximate mass of MTBE removed from processed water <br /> ' MMTBE= (299,590 lbs)(0 000019500) = 5.84 lbs MTBE <br /> ' A converstion factor of 0 4536 kg/lb can be used to convert pounds of MTBE to kilograms of <br /> MTBE <br /> ' MMTBE= 5 84 lbs MTBE(0 4536 kg/lb) =2,650 g of MTBE <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br /> Advanced GeoEnvlronmental,Inc <br /> 1 I I I I <br /> I <br /> I I I i iii <br /> i <br />
