...Dynamic 77 nature of groundwater table causes significant spreading of pooled LNAPL in smear zone, 78 which considerably increases the LNAPL-water interphase area and resulted in accelerated 79 dissolution (Mobile et al. 2012; Vasudevan et al. 2014)....

...Petroleum hydrocarbon dissolution is often described in terms of mass transfer at the NAPL/water interface assuming local equilibrium (Seagren et al., 1999; Sulaymon and Gzar, 2011) or rate limited mass transfer (Miller et al., 1990; Imhoff et al., 1994; Vasudevan et al., 2014)....

...Damkohler number Da ¼ KnwLVp represents the ratio of hydraulic residence time to the mass transfer reaction time, in other words, it is the ratio of reaction rate to advection rate which is a fraction approach to analyse equilibrium conditions for homogeneous systems (Mayer & Miller, 1996)....
