1 <br /> Mass-Volume Calculation of Dissolved MTBE: 16 February to 15 March 2005 <br /> RAINWATER CAR WASH - 420 West Yosemite Avenue, Manteca CA <br /> Assumptions <br /> ' • A total volume of 111,730 gallons was extracted from well EW-1 between 16 February and <br /> the 15 March 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= (111,730 gallons)(3 79 1/gal) = 423,4571 processed water <br /> Multiplying the volume of the processed water by the average MTBE concentration (1,295 µg/l) <br /> yields the approximate mass of MTBE removed from processed water <br /> ' MMYBE =(423,457 0(0 000001295 kg/0 = 0.55 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_ (0 55 kg MTBE)(2 205 lb/kg) = 1.21 lb MTBE <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br /> ' Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc <br />
