However, if the receiver soil also contains a measurable salt concentration, a more refined
6、calculation may be required. The following data are required: target salt concentration (salt criteria to be met), salt level of the salt-affected soil, salt level of the receiver soil, and volume of spill-affected soil. The calculation provides the final soil volume required, which is then converte
7、d into final land area required based on 3 inches of available depth. The calculation is performed as follows: Final volume needed = (spill volume)(spill soil EC - target soil EC)l/(target EC - receiver EC) Using previous example (assumes receiver EC = O mmhos/cm): Final soil volume needed = (300 CU

The land area required and thickness of spreading should be adjusted to allow for sampling and analytical variability, An expansion of the final

Because of the potential for salt concentrations to increase at the soil surface during evaporative periods, a top dressing of gypsum may help minimize soil dispersion. BU

The cost of deep burial techniques (if there is sufficient soil) is on the order of $2,000 for a modest-sized spill site. If the soil is shallow with underlying bedro
14、ck, the cost of deep burial can be ten times as great. DISPOSAL WELL INJECTION If produced water spillage is in a shallow depression with relatively loose soil, slurry and injec- tion may be appropriate. In slurry/injection, freshwater is added to the spill site and mixed with the salt-affected soil
15、. The slurry is then removed by vacuum truck and taken to a commercial disposal well permitted for oil and gas waste. This procedure is limited to very small spills where the slurry can be thin enough not to cause injection problems. IN SITU AND u( SITU SOIL WASHING Soil washing is a very fast but o
16、ften costly operation which combines high mechanical energy agitation with application of chemical amendments in order to remove salts, including sodium, from the salt-affected soil. The soil is often, but not always, removed from its original location. Soil washing is typically performed by soil wa
17、shing contractors who have appropriate equipment and are aware of the soil chemistry involved. Generally, the soil is kept in a chemically floccu- lated slurry during the entire process. Depending on soil texture, salinity, sodicity, and pH lev- els, salts are leached with increasingly less saline w
18、ater to a certain salinity level before chemical amendments are added to begin to displace sodium. When the soil is at an accept- able salinity and sodicity level, it can be returned to its original location or taken to another site. Although this process is rapid and has the potential to be very th
19、orough, it tends to be expensive.

BURIAL PROCEDURES Shallow burial (e4 ft) is undesirable because the salt will typically remain in the root zone a
32、nd may cause significant vegetative stress for many years. The process of deep burial involves cutting a slot the width of a bulldozer blade of sufficient depth to allow 5 ft of freeboard when the salt-affected soil is placed in the excavation. The soil removed from the slot is then used to cover th
33、e slot and replace the salt-affected soil. H-3 _ _ _ _ STD-API/PETRO PUBL 4bb3-ENGL 1997 0732290 Ob12670 TO4 D The 5-ft depth is normally sufficient to prevent capillary action from bringing the salt back to the surface. If desired, a capillary barrier of clay or plastic can also be used if the slot
34、 is kept narrow. (The slot may have to be wider than a bulldozer blade for safety. The salt-affected soil should be placed only in the center of the excavation when backfilling.) Groundwater is the critical issue in deep burial. Deep burial is most appropriate in arid areas with deep soils and groun
35、dwater. If groundwater is IO0 ft and a plastic or clay cap is used, the potential risk of groundwater contamination is minimal. The cost of deep burial techniques (if there is sufficient soil) is on the order of $2,000 for a modest- sized spill site. If the soil is shallow with underlying bedrock, t
36、he cost of deep burial can be ten times as great. DISPOSAL WELL INJECTION If produced water spillage is in a shallow depression with relatively loose soil, slurry and injection may be appropriate.
