Mapping groundwater contamination around a landfill

VLF-EM data were collected with a WADI (ABEM) system during the summer of 2004 along 12 sub-parallel profiles (Fig. 2) roughly oriented E–W and with stations every 8 m. It was not possible to have a perfectly regular grid of data points due to irregular topography and the landfill installations themselves. A frequency of 19.6 kHz was used …

VLF-EM prospecting for the characterization of a fault …

A WADI-ABEM system was used for the VLF data acquisition survey. The VLF-EM data were first interpreted using the Karous-Hjelt linear filter (Karous-Hjelt, 1983; Ogilvy and Lee, 1991) which allows the generation of apparent current density pseudosections by filtering the in-phase data. The pseudosections provide a representation of the depth of ...

GEM Portable EM Instruments for Resistivity Mapping

Ground and Airborne Conductor mapping and Cost Effective Resistivity Solutions. Very Low Frequency Electromagnetics (VLF) is a geophysical ground probing technology that utilizes VLF signals in the 15 to 30 kHz range normally used for communication with submarines. The signal generated is suitable for making geophysical measurements globally.

Groundwater exploration in Ago-Iwoye Area of …

The VLF WADI instrument displays the filtered real anomaly on the screen, and this anomaly can be roughly interpreted on site. (Sharma and Baranwal, 2005) For each VLF-EM traverse, the filtered real (FR) and the filtered imaginary (FI) of the secondary field are plotted against their corresponding distance to produce characteristics VLF-EM ...

WADI: Novel VLF Instrument For Water And Mineral Exploration

A novel instrument called WADI" has been developed. The instrument is based on the well-known VLF method, and designed to be simple to use even for non professionals, WADI is able to tune into any VLF station in the band from 15 to 30 kHx. It is also able to find the most suitable transmitter for the survey direction. The WAD1 memory is able to store …

The survey was carried out using ABEM Wadi VLF instrument with other accessories such as hand-held Global Positioning System (GPS) and measuring tape. A total of twelve (12) VLF EM profile stations were conducted in the eight (8) villages with profile length ranging from 120 to 650m. Readings were taken at station interval of 5m in

Identification of fracture zones for groundwater

The average annual rainfall in the area is about 752 mm. The area lies under semi-arid zones of India. In this area, VLF-EM and VES survey are conducted along the suitable profiles and points selected on the basis . Materials and methods of investigation. The VLF-EM data are collected using ABEM WADI VLF instrument in frequency range …

1.1 principe de la méthode VLF

VLF method is easier to put in place and more efficient for searching structures that may contain water in basement areas than other methods like geoelectric imagery, only the magneto telluric method may be more interesting but with a very high price. 1 principe de la méthode et conditions expérimentales. 1.1 principe de la méthode VLF

7. Geological Mapping Using VLF Radio Fields

INTRODUCTION The fact that electrical properties of the ground affect the behavior of radio waves has been known for years. Indeed measurements of the conductivity and dielectric constant of the earth using "wave-tilt" techniques were first performed in the 1930's [Feldman (1933), Smith-Rose (1933), Barfield (1934)]. These early measurements were, …

5 VLF data were collected using an ABEM-WADI instrument. Since the strike of the formation was approximately in the E-W direction, a transmitter in this direction with a frequency of 19.8 kHz was used. This transmitter was appropriate for E-polarization VLF surveys. Next, we covered much of the area by making suitable traverses along ...

(PDF) Very-low Frequency (VLF | Mohamed Attwa

The VLF-E.M. (Very Low Frequency-Electro Magnetics) method was first used for geophysical surveying in 1964. Since then many hundreds of surveys have been carried out; several variations on the original design have been introduced; and the method has become airborne.The VLF instrument is a directional radio receiver, which can be tuned to distant …

Correlation of VLF-EM Data with Radiometric Measurements

This study is an attempt to correlate VLF-EM data with the radiometric measurements to decipher the subsurface structure and to locate uranium mineralization in the shear zone. The study area is around Beldih mine which is an open cast apatite mine located on the South Purulia Shear Zone. VLF method has been applied to map the …

VLF insulation testing

VLF insulation testing. VLF testing uses very low frequencies as part of an AC cable maintenance routine. VLF testers are smaller and more practical than AC testers but output the same amount of power as a 50 Hz mains device. This combination of size and power makes Very Low Frequency cable testing perfect for testing longer sections of cable ...
