| Short description: |
EXTRACT: BioVapor is a user-friendly spreadsheet implementation of an indoor vapor intrusion model with oxygen-limited biodegradation. The BioVapor model is a steady-state 1-D analytical model intended to provide the user with an improved understanding of the potential effect of vadose zone aerobic biodegradation on the vapor intrusion pathway. The model does not directly account for spatial or temporal variations in parameter values. As a result, the model is not expected to provide highly accurate predictions when a single set of input parameter values is used to represent a single site. Rather, the model is expected to help the user identify a reasonable range of potential outcomes that result from varying key input parameter values to account for the uncertainty and variability associated with site conditions.
