Modeling of Contaminant Transport through Porous Media

Sources of soil and ground water contamination are widespread and include thousands of accidental spills and leaks of toxic and hazardous metals. An evaluation of hazardous metal transport through the soil media is one of the significant parts of Geo - environmental projects. The concept of contaminant transport relating to the migration or the fate of contaminant miscible in ground water from waste sites, dumping yards and industries are essential for the preparation of ground water contamination models. In the present study, an attempt has been made to analyze the mechanism involves one ¿ dimensional contaminant flow transport considering sorption. A well organized study was conducted to analyze the fate of contaminants at surrounding areas of Hyderabad, Telangana State, India.
