Abstract

Soil vapor extraction (SVE) is one of the most commonly used technologies for soil remediation of contaminated sites, and the use of models to accurately predict and evaluate the operational effectiveness of SVE is a necessary part of site contamination treatment projects. A pneumatic model-based equipment model is proposed to comprehensively describe the SVE operation process. Though the numerical simulation, the influence of fan frequency, air valve opening, pressure, and total flow was analyzed, and an optimal extraction strategy was validated. Then, field experiments were carried out to verify the validity of the model. The proposed model and experimental results can provide a theoretical basis for the design and duration evaluation of SVE.
