Study of heavy metals transport in the vadose zone of contaminated soil

Due to the anthropogenic activity, soil environment is deteriorated by various organic and inorganic contaminants a greater extent in Bangalore industrial area. The movement of heavy metals driven physical chemical properties soil. This contamination leads groundwater pollution through infiltration. In this study, an attempt made simulate transport like nickel zinc for one contaminated sites Bangalore. existing site levels are used model vadose zone simulation carried out 25 years study changes infiltrated water considering non-linear adsorption model. results help identifying vulnerability borewells these arriving suitable measures prevent pollution.
