Yes, You are all correct. Henry's Law Constant (HLC) for organic compounds is normally given at a reference temperature of either 20/25 degrees C in the literature. Under the CLR guidance, it is required that HLC is corrected to a UK soil temperature of 10 degrees. The correction is based on the Clapeyron equation and several supporting calculations (unfortunately!). These are all given in the EA CLEA briefing note 2 and the USEPA fact sheet (2001). Hope this helps. John P.

Should be in a text book or Google it.

I have looked in the 2 references and cannot work out what equation should be used, can anyone help?
