  • Oil Spill Contamination of Ground Water in Chunnakam Aquifer, Jaffna, Srilanka S
    Oil spill contamination of Ground water in Chunnakam Aquifer, Jaffna, Srilanka S. Saravanan1 1National Water Supply and Drainage Board ABSTRACT The Chunnakam aquifer has high capacity and contains acceptable quality water for drinking and other usages. Water supplies are generated from this area. Fuel smell had been continuously observed in Chunnakam water intake site. The intake site is located very close to the Chunnakam fossil fuel power station, and on analysis, the intake well and the adjacent wells showed oil contamination. A research study was carried out during the peri- od November 2013 to August 2014. The total number of 150 wells was analyzed, of these 109 (73%) wells have shown higher oil level than the Srilankan standard 614(1983) of 1.0 mg/l, 07 (4%) wells were under the limit and 34 wells (23%) were not contaminated with oil and grease. From the analysis the oil and grease contamination was observed within 1.5 km surrounding of the power station. The high oil and grease concentration layers were observed in the surrounding of the Chunnakam power station area. Keywords Oil and Grease, Chunnakam, Ground water, Wells, Power station 1. Introduction Agriculture is practiced to a larger extent in this area. Therefore the aquifer is exposed to number of severe The Jaffna peninsula is located in the Northern vulnerabilities such as over-extraction of groundwater tip of Srilanka. It covers an area of 1,012.01 excessive fertilizer usage, and other forms of pollution by km2, including inland waters with a population anthropogenic activities.

Gamage Kithsiri Approved Examiner Supervisor (KTH) 2016-05-20 Miroslav Petrov - KTH/ITM/EGI Miroslav Petrov Collaboration Supervisors (OUSL) Open University of Sri Lanka Dr. N. S. Senanayake Ruchira Abeyweera Abstract Due to temperature and humidity deviations from the standard ISO conditions in real operational conditions in the tropical countries the performance of diesel engines used for power generation drops significantly. One of the reasons for dropping the engine performance is due to engine de-rating, hence increasing the specific fuel consumption. The present study was undertaken to develop a model for predicting whether the prevailing site conditions cause de-rating at a specific power plant in Sri Lanka. The model was developed with the aid of recorded information in previous studies and was validated with site conditions revenant to a selected location in Sri Lanka. In the study a set of equations was developed corresponding to different temperatures to predict engine de-rating as a function of relative air humidity. To achieve the required standard conditions in view of avoiding any de-rating of the engines, the charge air temperature needed to be reduced.
