Contamination of groundwater and soil by petroleum hydrocarbons is a widespread environmental problem. In order to quantify the potential of natural attenuation of groundwater at a petroleum contaminated site. The total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) concentrations of 11 rounds were collected during the 1 year monitoring period, and the mass flux technique is used to calculate the attenuation rates. The calculated attenuation rates are between 0.0046-0.0064d-1, which indicating the time to achieve the remediation goal for the contamination site is possible within 3 years by natural attenuation alone.
