Description:
The Bubble Stripping Method is a chemical testing method that operates on the principle of Henry's Law. It is useful for determining concentrations of hydrogen in well water, and it is capable of detecting concentrations on the order of nanomoles per liter. The method provides information that is used in determining whether or not monitored natural attenuation is a viable strategy for restoration of sites contaminated with chlorinated solvents. With simple procedures and calculations, hydrogen concentrations in well water can be determined at a field site in less than an hour.
