For 1-d advective mass transport with dispersion and linear sorption, the equation is
(18.4)
For BC and IC
(continuous source)
(18.6)
(18.7)
Eq 18.7, often referred to as the retardation equation, predicts the position of a plume front due to
advective transport with linear sorption
The ratio describes how faster ground water or non-sorbing species is moving relative to the
contaminant being sorbed
Note, when ,
For binary exchange reactions, the partition coefficient is replaced by and the retardation
equation is given by

, selectivity coefficient, unitless
, total competing cation C in solution, meq/mL
, cation exchange ratio, meq/100 g mass = centimole/kg
For 1-d advective mass transport with dispersion and radioactive decay, the equation is
(14.16)
For BC and IC
(continuous source)
the solution is

The dimensionless group is critical; if large, exp 6 0, and —species decays faster
than it is transported; if large, , exp 6 1, species moves faster than it decays
instead of
If the observation point is far behind the modified advective front, the argument of erfc 6 !2 and erfc
6 2, a steady-state C profile is obtained as
