Tübingen, 2007 Characterization of complex non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) in the subsurface environment: partitioning and interfacial tracer tests & numerical dissolution assessment 1 Matthias Piepenbrink Abstract. Contamination of the subsurface environment by complex organic non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) and the resulting release of carcinogenic or mutagenic organic compounds impose a serious risk on groundwater quality.
