    A light non-aqueous phase liquid (LNAPL) is a groundwater contaminant that is not soluble in water and has a lower density than water, in contrast to a DNAPL which has a higher density than water. Once a LNAPL pollution infiltrates the ground, it will stop at the depth of the water table because of its positive buoyancy. Efforts to locate and ...

    That said, some chemical compounds within the NAPL are capable of solubilizing into water, meaning that two liquid phases of NAPL (immiscible hydrocarbon and aqueous solute) can exist simultaneously. The gaseous phase of NAPLs is also responsible for the contamination of groundwater and soil; therefore, the distribution of NAPLs between its ...
