Transport of light nonaqueous phase liquid in a saturated nonhomogeneous Soil

The purpose of the present research is to study the dissolution and transport of LNAPL(toluene) from a circular pool in heterogeneous sand soil. An aquifer was constructed toconduct this aim with dimension of (100 * 50 * 30) cm. The aquifer was packed withheterogeneous sand soil. Eight points at three depths along the aquifer were selected forsampling procedures. Samples were analysis for toluene concentration using gaschromatography devise. Three velocities of five were selected to explain the transportphenomena. Statistical analysis was applied to the data to find the correlation betweenmeasured concentrations. It was found that, the concentrations of toluene were fluctuatedin the low and max porous medium flow velocities (0.408 and 5.118) cm/day effect of flowthrough porous media on. The statistical analysis showed that there a correlation betweenconcentrations of toluene in the vertical direction (depth) of the medium.
