Conservative and reactive solute transport in constructed wetlands

Conservative and reactive solute transport in constructed wetlands

[1] The transport of bromide, a conservative tracer, and rhodamine WT (RWT), a photodegrading tracer, was evaluated in three wastewater-dependent wetlands near Phoenix, Arizona, using a solute transport model with transient storage. Coupled sodium bromide and RWT tracer tests were performed to establish conservative transport and reactive parameters in constructed wetlands with water losses ran...

Modeling Variably Saturated Water Flow and Multicomponent Reactive Transport in Constructed Wetlands

important factors in controlling subsurface flow and/or contaminant transport, and/or evaluating regional and Constructed wetlands (CWs) are becoming increasingly popular global water cycles (Scanlon et al., 2002). worldwide for removing organic matter (OM), nutrients, trace elements, pathogens, or other pollutants from wastewater and/or runoff Many or most vadose zone models consider the trans...

Extraction of model parameters for reactive solute transport

In the present study, tried to examine the reactive solute relationships for transport and degradation processes through the rockfill media. By applying the analytical solution of reactive transport, the 1st to 3rd theoretical temporal moments have been extracted then, by using two methods of curve fitting and temporal moment matching, the coefficients of dispersion and degradation have been ex...
