TLDR
In this paper, a mass transport model to simulate the evaporation of nonaqueous phase contaminants from the unsaturated soil during venting is presented, and the dependence of NAPL evapuration on the resistance due to diffusional transport within the liquid phase is discussed in detail.

Effect of water content on transient nonequilibrium NAPL-gas mass transfer during soil vapor extraction.

TL;DR: Simulations showed that the nonequilibrium mass transfer process could be characterized by the exponent beta, a parameter which described the reduction of the specific area available for NAPL volatilization.

Effectiveness of in situ air sparging for removing NAPL gasoline from a sandy aquifer near Perth, Western Australia

TL;DR: Air sparging was also effective in removing residual NAPL from below the water table although evidence of a depleted source of volatilised hydrocarbons suggests the possible development of mass transfer limitations.
