| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Potential applications of fine bubbles (FBs) have drawn more attention, especially in environmental engineering fields such as soil/groundwater remediation. Understanding a transport mechanism of FBs in soils is essential to optimize remediation techniques using FBs. In this study, transport characteristic of FBs in soils was investigated based on the column transport experiments. In addition, a transport model of FBs was tested. The column transport experiments using glass beads were conducted, where UFBs created by either air or oxygen were injected to the column with different flow conditions. The results showed that attachments of FBs were enhanced under lower water flow rate. In addition, the mobility of O2-FBs which has lower zeta potential was higher than that of Air-UFBs. A convection-dispersion model including bubble attachment and detachment terms was applied to the obtained breakthrough curves for each experiment, showing good fitness against the measured data.
