    MTBE- Well/ Groundwater Contamination Issues What is MTBE?
    Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether
    In a major setback to the oil and chemical industries, on July 27, 1999 an EPA panel recommended that MTBE be reduced in use as a gasoline additive because of the toxic hazards that MTBE poses to drinking water supplies throughout the country. MTBE is a known animal carcinogen and possible human carcinogen. The reported U.S. production of MTBE in 1992 exceeded nine billion pounds - virtually all of it is added to gasoline. Oil companies reportedly make approximately $3 billion per year from MTBE production. MTBE Transport MTBE is highly volatile and would typically be expected to volatilize rapidly from soil surface s or water, but MTBE is soluble in water and highly mobile in soils and sorbs only weakly to aoil and aquifer material.. The solubility of MTBE in water at 25 C is approximately 5000 mg/L of a gasoline that is 10% MTBE. Whereas, non-oxygenated gasoline has a total hydrocarbon solubility of about 120 mg/L. In the atmosphere, MTBE is rapidly transformed into a formaldehyde compounds. Once in the soil, the natural or alternative remediation processes have shown a limited effectiveness for remediating this chemical through bioremediation. If found in groundwater at concentrations greater than 30 ppb, it is likely that the source is a leaking underground tank (UST) a point source. Lower concentrations probably represent a combination of point and non-point sources, which may include atmpospheric washout and stormwater runoff from parking lots, roads, etc..

    What Is Groundwater?
    Groundwater is water that is found underground in the cracks and spaces in soil, sand and rock. Groundwater is stored in, and moves slowly through, layers of soil, sand and rocks called aquifers. Aquifers consist of gravel, sand, sandstone, and fractured rock. These materials are permeable because they have large connected spaces that allow water to flow through. When rain falls to the ground, the water does not stop moving. The water flows along the surface to streams or lakes, some of it is used by plants, some evaporates and returns to the atmosphere, and some sinks into the ground. The majority of Groundwater comes from rain, snow, and ice which seeps into the ground. Where Can You Find Groundwater?
    Groundwater can be found almost anywhere. The water table may be deep or shallow, and may rise or fall depending on many factors. Heavy rains or melting snow may cause the water table to rise, heavy pumping of groundwater may cause the water table to fall. Water in aquifers is brought to the surface through a spring or can be discharged into lakes and streams. Groundwater can also be extracted through a well drilled into the aquifer. Groundwater supplies are replenished, or recharged, by rain and snow melt.

    Arsenic contamination of groundwater
    Arsenic is highly toxic and carcinogenic. Groundwater is particularly vulnerable to contamination with arsenic as a result of natural geochemical processes and problems can be exacerbated by mining activity. Even natural concentrations of arsenic in groundwater can limit its suitability for drinking. It is now apparent that arsenic contamination of groundwater is quite extensive. In the last eight years, BGS has undertaken a series of collaborative investigations into the arsenic contamination of groundwater in various countries. These investigations have included both 'mining-related' and 'natural' sources of arsenic contamination. Many of these have been undertaken with support from the UK Department for International Development ( DFID

It also is vital to sustaining the natural systems on and under the earth's surface. Groundwater is a hidden resource. At one time, its purity and availability were taken for granted. Now contamination and availability are serious issues. Some interesting facts to consider... Scientists estimate groundwater accounts for more than 95% of all fresh water available for use.

This research includes detailed field investigations, laboratory studies, development of reactive barriers and other passive remedial solutions, and development of mathematical models to predict the complex geochemical behavior of these systems. We have conducted detailed investigations of mine sites, mine-waste disposal facilities, wetlands, on-site sewage disposal systems and other industrial sites. Laboratory studies often focus on reaction mechanisms utilizing batch and column experiments. Mathematical modelling has focused on the development of fully-coupled reactive transport codes that can account for thermodynamic and kinetic controls on chemical reactions between groundwater and the aquifer material.

    It is widely recognized that site characterization and modeling are closely interconnected and that successful work in one requires thorough understanding of the other. The purpose of the Symposium is to bring together hydrogeologists, geologists, hydrologists and engineers collecting and analyzing field measurements or conducting lab experiments with those focused more on modeling. The Symposium will provide a forum for a dialog and exchange of ideas, which will enhance the ability of both groups to better describe and understand flow and transport processes in heterogeneous media. The Symposium aims also at promoting the dialog between researchers and practicing engineers and scientists. Organized by Co-Sponsors: Answers to Last-Minute Questions - Click Here

    http://www.uni-oldenburg.de/zoomorphology/Groundwater.html
    Groundwater - an unknown habitat
    The River Styx is one of the five rivers in the underworld of Greek mythology and a synonym for all subsurface waters. In the past it was unknown that these waters are teeming with life.
    Only recently it was realised that groundwater is a habitat for a diverse fauna that evolved special features for life within the dark interstices between the grains of sand. Refering to the River Styx the invertebrates which spend their whole lifes in subsurface waters are called stygobionts . They are found not only in porous groundwater aquifers of river valleys but also in karstic areas where caves of different sizes may be found. Stygobionts are able to penetrate into man made habitats such as wells and slow sand filters
    The stygobionts show a remarkable set of morphological and physiological characteristics which can be interpreted as adaptations to life in groundwater. The most apparent insignia are the depigmented and vermiform body and the lack of eyes. Compared with related organisms in surface waters the stygobionts have very long lifes (15 times longer and some even more) and all developmental stages are prolonged.Their metabolism is reduced and the reproductive output is small compared with surface water organisms. But due to the long life span of stygobionts the absolute number of offspring may be similar to that of surface water organisms.
