Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Considering a river contaminated with DNAPL, if the mass transfer coefficient is estimated to be 0.1 cm/hr and the concentration gradient is found to be 5 mg/L, calculate the flux. Show all steps involved.
💡 Hint: Pay close attention to unit conversions and apply the formula systematically.
Devise a plan to assess the flow of a new contaminant into a sediment, accounting for environmental factors like water velocity and temperature. Identify what data you would need.
💡 Hint: Consider how environmental factors interact with contaminant properties during your assessment.
