Abstract

This paper evaluates partial deposition of Caulobacter and its rate of transport in soil and water environment. The study monitored the migration process in homogeneous gravel formation. The study area predominantly deposits homogeneous gravel formation where it partially deposits Caulobacter in sequence through the lithology to phreatic bed within a short period. The rate of transport has not been monitored to determined there rate of porosity through hydraulic conductivity influences, these condition were found to pressured the contaminant fast to Phreatic bed in the study location, the transport process were integrated in the developed system that generated derived model to predict the transport process to unconfined bed. The developed model expresses various rate of concentration through simulation were partial deposition of Caulobacter in fluctuation were observed, Such theoretical values were compared with other experimental results for model validation; both parameters compared faviourably well expressing validation rate for the study, experts will definitely use these tools in monitoring the transport rate of Caulobacter in gravel formation.
