Abstract

A user-friendly BASIC computer code is presented for a one-dimensional mathematical model of contaminant transport in a porous medium employing linear, reversible. equilibrium partitioning for the adsorption/desorption mechanism and a first-order degradation kinetic mechanism. The model predicts the transient response of changable contaminant step function inputs to a flow-through, porous-medium system.
