PhD Dissertation at University of Basrah Investigates the Transport of BTEX through Saturated and Unsaturated Zones
A PhD dissertation at the College of Engineering, University of Basrah, investigated the theoretical and experimental study of BTEX transport through saturated and unsaturated zones of soil.
The dissertation, submitted by student Nabaa Ahmed Obaid, aims to develop a comprehensive understanding of the transport and retention behavior of BTEX in sandy and sandy loam soils under controlled hydraulic conditions.
The dissertation comprises five chapters, during which the student discussed the construction of a laboratory model consisting of a rectangular glass tank filled with homogeneous sand or sandy loam soil, with two water reservoirs at the upstream and downstream points to maintain a constant hydraulic gradient.
