Establishment of porosity and permeability models correlation to validate E.coli Transport to ground water aquifers: Rivers state of Nigeria

Abstract

The evaluation of porosity and permeability models correlation on the migration of e.coli transport in deltaic environment has been assessed. This is to validate the model generated from the experimental analysis in the study location, this model are generated through the experimental results from both parameters, the theoretical values from both parameters confirm that the models generated is a bench mark that can be applied as a design criteria in preventing the migration of e.coli to ground water aquifer, it has also confirm that it plays a major role in fast transport of e.coli in deltaic environment, the figures displayed shows the level of deposition of geological formation in the study area, the study has also explain the migration of the microbes influenced by porosity and permeability, the results from the experiment that generated theoretical values for porosity and permeability were evaluated to see their relationship in terms of influence on the behaviour of the microbial transport as a system known as plug flow. the results has been confirm that without any inhibition from any other deposition, e.coli will be in progressive phase condition, therefore it is advise that the models generated from the study area should be applied in design of bore hole in other to prevent the pollution emanating from e.coli in the study area, finally the relationships verified from the study has a fit to the existing geological history of the study area that is predominant of alluvium deposition, this condition ascertain the reality of the experimental results generated from the study area ,it should be applied to avoid water related diseases and the threat of life

Geospatial Analysis of Soil Resistivity and Hydro-Parameters for Groundwater Assessment

“…The primary distinction lies in the fact that transmissivity is the measure that extends over the vertical thickness of aquifer layer (Eluozo et al, 2012). So, in both maps, 9th and 10th points have low hydraulic conductivity (up to 4.05 m/day) and low transmissivity (up to 365.462 m 2 /day) which shows that aquifer layers at these points have low groundwater potentials (6-30 liter/sec) and intermediate water capacities respectively.…”

“…In groundwater management science, hydraulic conductivity and transmissivity are the important factors aiding in the understanding of groundwater exploration properties Ebong et al, 2014). Aquifers play a crucial role in supplying the water to wells after activation of pump, water level declines which stimulate the groundwater ow from aquifer as it initially comes from storage within the aquifer, so aquifers possess at least two vital properties: capacity to store and capability to transmit the water (Eluozo et al, 2012;Schwartz and Zhang, 2003). Both maps look similar, but these are different in de ning the hydraulic properties to explain them and we can identify the high groundwater potential zones along with high water capacities by comparing both maps.…”

“…4a). Aquifers play a crucial role in supplying the water to wells and one of the aquifer's important attributes is its capacity to store water (Eluozo et al, 2012). Porosities values are used to differentiate the geological formations in the aquifer layers by storage and retention of water within a geological formation.…”

“…Transmissivity plays a prevalent role in groundwater management science. Multiplication of hydraulic conductivity with aquifer layer thickness yields transmissivity (Sikandar et al 2012;Khalil et al 2009;Eluozo et al, 2012).…”

Porosity Influenced on Prediction of Enterobacter Transport in Heterogeneous Sand Graved Depositions

“…Greater microbes can be excluded from most subsurface formations, except for those formation that deposit gravelly and cavernous aquifers [6][7][8][9][10][11] pollution that contain microbiological are derived mostly from human and animal activities such as unsewered settlements; onsite sanitation; cemeteries; waste disposal; waste disposal; feedlots; etc. However, with very limited exemptions the only waterborne microbial pathogens of man are vitally human bacteria, viruses and protozoa, consideration the safety on drinking water such be adhered from the point of view of infectious diseases, because if that is ignored pollution from such sources will definitely contaminant the ground waters [12][13][14][15][16].…”
