What is low flow purging?

The purpose of Low-Flow Purging and Sampling (LFPS) is to collect groundwater samples from monitor wells that are representative of ambient groundwater conditions in the aquifer. This is accomplished by setting the intake velocity of the sampling pump to a flow rate that limits drawdown inside the well.

What is the flow rate for low flow sampling?

Typically, flow rates on the order of 0.1 - 0.5 L/min are used, however this is dependent on site-specific hydrogeology. Some extremely coarse-textured formations have been successfully sampled in this manner at flow rates to 1 L/min.

What is considered low flow?

Low-flow faucets In the United States, conventional kitchen and bathroom faucets must not use more than 2.2 gpm. Faucets that meet energy efficiency standards for WaterSense mustnt use more than 1.5 gpm, a 32% decrease in flow rate over the federal requirement.

What is the low flow purge rate?

The use of low-flow (e.g., 0.1-0.5 L/min) pumps is suggested for purging and sampling all types of analytes. All pumps have some limitation and these should be investigated with respect to application at a particular site. Bailers are inappropriate devices for low-flow sampling.

What is low flow anesthesia?

Low-flow anaesthesia is defined to be an inhalation anaesthetic technique in which the rebreathing fraction at least amounts to 50%, where at least 50% of the exhaled gas mixture is returned to the patient after CO2 removal in the next inspiration.
