1996 Henry Darcy Lecture Series - Linda Abriola (part 1)
Channel: National Ground Water Association
Date: 11/08/2011

"Organic Liquid Contaminant Entrapment and Persistence in the Subsurface: Interphase Mass Transfer Limitations and Implications for Remediation" was the title of the lecture presented by Linda Abriola, Ph.D. The lecture presented an overview of collaborative research conducted at The University of Michigan during the last five years to elucidate and quantify the processes controlling interphase mass transfer in multiphase subsurface environments. Abriola received a B.S.E. in civil engineering from Drexel University, and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in civil engineering from Princeton University. For the past 12 years she has been involved in research exploring the transport and fate of organic contaminants in groundwater and soils.
 
Abriola's lecture was heard by more than 4000 persons at 33 locations in the United States, Canada, Switzerland, Germany, France, and England.
