MODELING OF E. COLI TRANSPORT ON HOMOGENEOUS CLAY FORMATION INFLUENCED BY PERMEABILITY IN AHAODA EAST RIVERS STATE OF NIGERIA

Modeling of E.coli transport on homogenous clay influenced by permeability has been carried out. The transport of the microbes on uniform clay formation was developed to monitor the migration process of the microbes in the clay region. The model explains the behaviour of the microbes with respect to time of transport on homogenous clay, and determines the rate of concentration including the rate of permeability influence. The results show that without any regeneration of the microbes in the study area, the concentration at the period from 10 ? 100 days may be insignificant on homogenous clay formation. From the simulation results it has explain the behaviour in physical process where the contaminant express it deposition from high to low concentration, while in other deposition the heterogeneous setting of some minerals developed high accumulation of E.coli in eighty days thus decreasing slightly in hundred days. The models were compared with the experimental values and both parameters compared favourably well.
