Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a scenario of a D-NAPL spill in a river with estimated diffusion rates and sediment characteristics, calculate the expected concentration of the contaminant downstream after a set time frame.

💡 Hint: Use known equations for diffusion and think about how concentrations distribute over time.

Challenge 2 Hard

Evaluate how changes in temperature and pressure might affect the behavior of D-NAPLs in sediments over an extended period of time.

💡 Hint: Consider temperature effects on solubility and fluid properties.
