Reaction front formation in contaminant plumes.
The formation of successive fronts in contaminated groundwater plumes by subsoil bacterial action is a commonly accepted feature of their propagation, but it is not obviously clear from a mathematical standpoint quite how such fronts are formed or propagate. In this paper we show that these can be explained by combining classical reaction-diffusion theory involving just two reactants (oxidant a...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Characterization of Contaminant Plumes
Before remediating a site with contaminated soil or groundwater, the contaminant plume must first be characterized. This involves sampling the contaminant concentration at a set of locations in and around the contaminated area. To present the measured concentrations in a meaningful form, the concentrations are typically interpolated to the nodes of a three-dimensional grid and the plume is visu...
متن کاملImaging techniques in dermatology
Since the discovery of X-rays, the use of imaging technology has continued to play an important role in medicine. Technological advancements have led to the development of various imaging modalities, most of which have been used to image organs deep within the human body. More recently, attention has focused on the application of imaging technology for evaluation of the skin. A variety of techn...

A.P. Aizebeokhai ( ) Department of Physics, College of Science and Technology, Covenant University, Ota, Ogun State, Nigeria e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The presence of contaminants in the environment requires a precise characterization of the nature and extent of contamination for effective remediation. Conventional environmental monitoring has focused largely on point s...
متن کاملA model for the resistivity structure of LNAPL plumes and their environs in sandy sediments
Geophysical site characterization investigations at fuel spill sites have been generally guided by a working hypothesis Ž . which assumes that the light non-aqueous phase liquids LNAPL are a fully saturating phase of intrinsically very high electrical resistivity. Using observations from other related sciences, and contrary geophysical observations, a different model is developed which treats t...
