Diffusion Equation for Pollutant Dispersion

Mark
< Prev
Next >

Which of the following scenarios describes pollutant dispersion that can be modeled using the diffusion equation ∂C∂t=D∂2C∂x2\frac{\partial C}{\partial t}=D\frac{\partial^2 C}{\partial x^2}?

A

Pollutants spreading from a chemical spill in a river naturally diffusing over time in accordance with the diffusion model.

B

A mechanical treatment process that removes contaminants via rapid filtering without considering natural dispersion.

C

A point source discharge where pollutants are instantly and uniformly mixed throughout the entire water body.

D

A sedimentation process where gravitational settling of particles occurs independently and is not described by diffusion dynamics.
