Precise mass flux and groundwater velocity measurements made easy

Technology at-a-glance:
FluxTracer® Flux Mapping Tools are easy-to-use devices that vertically delineate contaminant mass flux and groundwater velocity within existing monitoring wells to aid in site characterization and remedial designs.
Conventional methods (pump and slug tests) give a single value for groundwater velocity whereas passive tools like FluxTracer are designed to distinguish individual zones within an aquifer. This level of resolution is especially useful for remediation design.
A Dual-Functioning, Passive Sampling Technology For Site Characterization and In Situ Remediation Designs
The FluxTracer consists of separate two-foot-long (61cm) stainless steel canisters internally spaced in two chambers and secured in a series on a pre-measured central wire line equipped with a modified J-plug. FluxTracers are always pre-assembled, and ready to deploy with no onsite construction required. The unique design provides joint-like flexibility between the closely stacked cannisters to easily install and remove from a well.

What is Mass Flux?
Mass flux is defined as the contaminant mass moving across a unit area (aquifer) perpendicular to the groundwater flow direction. Mass flux is measured as mass/area/time.
