dc.description.abstract | The inter-well partitioning tracer test seemingly provides an attractive way of investigating the presence of non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) in aquifers. Although the feasibility of this rather new technique has been tested in the field, only few laboratory experiments have been performed to test its validity at scales greater than the column scale. In this study, a partitioning tracer test was conducted in a nominally two-dimensional, intermediate-scale flow cell containing a tetrachloroethene (PCE) spill. Tracer breakthrough curves were obtained at 14 sampling ports and an extraction well containing three outlets. Estimated PCE contents resulting from the tracer technique were compared to PCE saturations obtained at 800 locations by gamma radiation. An inverse procedure, based on the two-site, non-equilibrium convection-dispersion equation, was used in addition to the moment method for sampling port data analysis. Although the inverse procedure produced slightly better results than the moment method, the tracer technique generally underestimated the amount of DNAPL contained in our aquifer model. Notably, our results showed that the pooled part of the DNAPL spill was not detected. This was attributed to the low aqueous phase permeability within the DNAPL pool in combination with rate-limited partitioning of the tracers into the DNAPL. Our analysis indicate a general difficulty for the tracer technique to detect NAPL located in pools or large lenses. | |
