Abstract
The modeling of pollution dissemination in water is based on a mathematical description of hydrodynamic, hydraulic, and physical–chemical processes that control pollution transfer in water reservoirs. Section 9.1 describes the structure and classification of such models. Section 9.2 discusses a general three-dimensional model of water pollution, which includes transport and diffusion of pollutants in dissolved state, suspension, and ground deposits, adsorption and sedimentation of pollutants, subjected to water dynamics and boundary conditions of water reservoirs, and pollution sources. Section 9.3 describes a two-dimensional horizontal model of water pollution dissemination. Section 9.4 presents a simple one-dimensional model and its analytic solutions for one point source of pollutant. Section 9.5 explores compartmental models of water pollutions and related problems of water pollution control.
