Transport Calculations n Advection Dispersion n Reaction n
ADVECTION Cells are numbered from 1 to N. Index numbers (of SOLUTION, EQUILIBRIUM_PHASES, etc) are used to define the solution and reactants in each cell SOLUTION 0 (or N+1) enters the column Water is “shifted” from one cell to the next
ADVECTION TRANSPORT adds dispersion, stagnant zones, and heat transport
ADVECTION Number of cells Number of shifts If kinetics—time step

T.1.Exercise 1.Run the Oklahoma simulation in a 10-cell column. a. Change the log K to –15 for the following two surface complexation reactions: Hfo_wOH + Mg+2 = Hfo_wOMg+ + H+ Hfo_wOH + Ca+2 = Hfo_wOCa+ + H+ b. Initial conditions: equilibrate the following brine with calcite and dolomite.
T.1.Exercise (continued) c. Initial conditions: Equilibrate 1 mol of exchanger with the reacted brine and place in each cell of the column. d. Initial conditions: Equilibrate 0.07 mol of surface complexation sites with the reacted brine. Assume 600 m^2/g specific surface area and 30 grams of sorbing material. Place the surface in each cell of the column. e. Define evaporated rainwater with the following composition:
T.1.Exercise (continued) f. Assume the rainwater reacts with calcite and dolomite in the soil zone and the soil zone pCO2 = 10^-1.5. This water flows into the column. g. Replace half the pore volume of the column with the infilling water. h. Plot pH, Cl (mol/kgw) and total dissolved As (ug/kgw) versus cell number.
T.2.Questions 1.Describe the Cl- profile in the column at the end of the simulation. 2.Describe the pH profile in the column at the end of the simulation. 3.What is the pH at which arsenic appears to become a problem?
