Simulated Study on the Migration of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in the Soil

Abstract:

Spills and leaks of petroleum hydrocarbons such as gasoline, diesel, motor oils, and similar materials have caused widespread contamination in the environment. The migration and distribution of petroleum hydrocarbons in the vertical and horizontal profiles of soil were studied by the stimulating experiment. Results showed that the soil pollutions could diffuse in vertical and horizontal directions after petroleum hydrocarbons leaks. The petroleum hydrocarbons mainly spread vertically in the soil and the horizontally migration was relatively slowly. The migration distances were increased with a logarithmic growth dependence on the time both in horizontal and in vertical direction.
