Diffusion in Natural Porous Media: Contaminant Transport,
Sorption/Desorption and Dissolution Kinetics introduces the general
principles of diffusion in the subsurface environment and discusses
the implications for the fate and transport of contaminants in
soils and groundwater. Emphasis is placed on sorption/desorption
and the dissolution kinetics of organic contaminants, both of which
are limited by the slow speed of molecular diffusion. Diffusion in
Natural Porous Media: Contaminant Transport, Sorption/Desorption
and Dissolution Kinetics compiles methods for calculating the
diffusion coefficients of organic compounds (in aqueous solution or
vapor phase) in natural porous media. The author uses analytical
solutions of Fick's 2nd law and some simple numerical models to
model diffusive transport under various initial and boundary
conditions. A number of these models may be solved using
spreadsheets. The book examines sorption/desorption rates of
organic compounds in various soils and aquifer materials, and also
examines the dissolution kinetics of nonaqueous phase liquids in
aquifers, in both the trapped residual phase and in pools.
Diffusion in Natural Porous Media: Contaminant Transport,
Sorption/Desorption and Dissolution Kinetics concludes with a
discussion of the impact of slow diffusion processes on soil and
groundwater decontamination and the implications of these processes
for groundwater risk assessment.
