Vapor Intrusion and Indoor Air Sampling Issues

Cypress, CAAbstract:
The vapor intrusion (VI) into the buildings is one of the most potent pathways for assessing risks associated with releases of chemicals into the environment. In cases where groundwater is shallow, VI becomes an issue of immediate concern to the occupants of the building and poses challenges with respect to acquisition of quality data, associated evaluation, and subsequent need for mitigation. There are approximately 375,000-500,000 contaminated sites in the United States. Half of the high priority sites are contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE) and approximately half of those have possible VI of TCE. Almost a quarter of high priority sites have VI issues associated with TCE. As the field of VI evolves and environmental community gains experience in this field, it also realizes the need for higher quality data for risk-management decision-making. In this presentation, we will attempt to address approaches for screening sites for VI and indoor air sampling and highlight issues associated with acquisition of indoor air data. Based on our agency experience, we will also try to provide some recommendations to address data quality issues.

IS SEGREGATION-INDUCED GRAIN BOUNDARY EMBRITTLEMENT
A POLYMORPHOUS MELTING PROCESS?Nghi Q. Lam
Argonne National Laboratory
Argonne, IL 60439 A number of important contributions to our understanding of solid-state amorphization and segregation-induced grain boundary embrittlement have been made
in recent years. The two processes have traditionally been regarded as completely different phenomena belonging to different branches of materials science. However, recent systematic studies on Ni-S alloys have revealed striking similarities in the kinetics of S-implantation-induced amorphization and S-induced grain boundary embrittlement. In this presentation, we examine the underlying thermodynamics and show that both phenomena can be regarded as a polymorphous melting process. Disorder-induced melting of grain boundaries gives rise to low fracture resistance due to the ability of a crack to propagate readily through amorphous material.All first year MASC students are required to attend.
