Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You have a soil-water system with 200 kg of a contaminant and Koc of 5. Calculate the distribution if aqueous solubility is limited to 20 mg/L.
💡 Hint: Use the partitioning formula and given values to set the equilibria.
Design a remediation strategy for a site with complex contaminants. How does the knowledge of Koc, solubility, and moisture content influence your approach?
💡 Hint: Consider both phases and the behaviors of different chemical types.
