Saturation (S) = V w / V v Range: 0 -> 1. Porosity (n) = V V / V T. Moisture Content (ø) = V w / V T Range: 0 -> n. Void Ratio (e) = V V / V S Field Capacity = amount of water held in soil after wetting and drainage. e = n / (1-n) or n = e / (1+e). Here: V W - volume of water in an overall soil matrix V V - volume of void in an overall soil matrix V S - volume of soil in an overall soil matrix V T - total volume of overall soil matrix ( = V W + V V +V S ) Primary porosity (interstitial porosity) vs. Secondary porosity (fracture, solution porosity) "Apparent" porosity vs. "Effective" porosity (interconnected pore space) Definitions

Secondary porosity

Definitions: Aquifer Types Aquifer: geologic formation which a) contains water b) permits significant transmission Classification 1) Confined - bounded above and below by confining formations Artesian - wells flow freely 2) Unconfined (phreatic) - water table serves as upper boundary 3) Aquitard: aquifer loses or gains water through bounding formations cf) aquiclude - contains water but will not transmit aquifuge - impervious (neither contain water nor transmit water) Def: Piezometric Head - water level in well which penetrates aquifer. Piezometric Surface - imaginary surface defined by such wells.
10
Definitions II Permeability: Capacity of porous medium to transmit water Average water flow velocity is used as a quantitative measure of permeability (Length per time). Homogeneity: A formation is said to be homogeneous if the properties are the same at all points. Otherwise, the formation is heterogeneous. (An)Isotropy: A formation is said to be isotropic if its properties are independent of direction at a point. Otherwise, the formation is anisotropic.
11
GW Geological Elements controlling the nature and distribution of aquifers and aquitards in a geologic system Lithology: physical make-up, including the mineral composition, grain size, and grain packing, of the sediments or rocks that make up the geological systems Stratigraphy: the geometrical and age relations between the various lenses, beds, and formations in geologic systems of sedimentary origin. Structural features: such as cleavages, fractures, folds, and faults are the geometrical properties of the geologic systems produced by deformation after deposition. Unconformity: surface that represents an interval of time during which deposition was negligible or nonexistent, or more commonly during which the surface of the existing rocks was weathered, eroded, or fractured.
12
Genesis of Aquifer Unconformity: surface that represents an interval of time during which deposition was negligible or nonexistent, or more commonly during which the surface of the existing rocks was weathered, eroded, or fractured. Weathering In-situ physical disintegration and chemical decomposition Erosion Wind, running water, glacier ice Deposition Nonindurate deposits (90% of all development aquifers) Sedimentary rocks Igneous and metamorphic rocks Permafrost
13
Major types of aquifer systems 1. Alluvial aquifers Alluvium - sediments of recent geologic age deposited by flow water (a) deposits in braided rivers, (b) deposits in meandering rivers and floodplain environments, (c) deltaic deposits etc. 2. Glacial aquifers - tills (low permeability, poorly sorted) 3. Aeolian aquifers - loess (relatively uniform distribution of porosity) 4. Sedimentary aquifers - more advanced consolidation & cementation (of greater age than unconsolidated deposits). Sandstones: porosity reduced by chemical precipitation Shales: secondary porosity along bedding planes, fractures, joints Carbonate rocks: deposition from marine organisms (limestones, chalks, dolomites); secondary porosity along channels, sinkholes. 5. Igneous and metamorphic rocks - extremely anisotropic, varying hydraulic properties, low porosity Intrusive igneous rocks: post-emplacement changes (secondary porosity) Metamorphic rocks: principal rocks of the continental core Extrusive Igneous rocks: contains reasonably large volumes of water.

Review: Environ. Processes & Dynamics Transformation Homogeneous Heterogeneous Transport Microscopic transport Macroscopic transport Interphase mass transfer
15
Transformation Definition: Reactions resulting in the change of one chemical form, species, or state to another (chemically changed). Virtually all environmental transformations are chemically mediated. Homogeneous (mono-phase) Heterogeneous (multi-phases) => More environ. relevant * Nevertheless, within a mono-phase, transformation is not necessarily heterogeneous In nature

22
CEE3330-01 May 8, 2007 Joonhong Park Copy Right Molecular Diffusion The random motion of fluid molecules causes a net movement of species from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration. The rate of movement depends on the spatial gradient of concentration of a solute. Our discussion is restricted to conditions in which the diffusing species is present at a low mole fraction (the infinite dilution condition).

CEE3330-01 May 8, 2007 Joonhong Park Copy Right Dispersion The spreading of contaminants by nonuniform flow is called dispersion. This is not a fundamentally distinct transport process. Instead, dispersion is caused by nonuniform advection and influenced by diffusion. A phenomenon caused by the gradient of momentum, which is expressed by a tensor.

74
Homogenous Reactions Homogenous reactions are governed by relations which require that certain entropy, enthalpy, and energy balances be obeyed among the components or species participating in transformation processes that occur within a single phase. * Transformation via electron transfer (oxidation-reduction reaction) - Ionic reaction (give-and-take) - covalent reaction (sharing) - coordinate-covalent reaction (forming complexes) * Transformation via proton (H + ) transfer (in water)
76
Equilibrium distribution of a species among different phases are governed by thermodynamics (driving forces = chemical energy differences between different phases). Examples of heterogeneous reactions Gas & Water: Volatilization, Henry constant, K H P A = K H * C A, (P i = [n i / V]*R*T) here, P=partial pressure, C=molar conc. Water & Organic phase: Partitioning, Octanol-Water Partition Coeff., K O-W C A in organic = K O-W * C A in water Solid & Water: (Linear) Adsorption Coeff., Kd C A in solid = Kd * C A in water Heterogeneous Reactions
77
Transport processes as the result of specific “driving forces” - In essence, a driving force is a spatial energy gradient of a species - elevation head, pressure gradient, density gradient, concentration gradient, chemical energy gradient, electrical energy gradient Macroscopic transport processes occur at the scale of the system or reactor - In most cases, physical and mechanical driving force. Microscopic transport processes occur at the scale of subcomponents (e.g. suspended particles, phase interfaces etc.) - Concentration/chemical energy-driven transport at a microscopic scale (a nano-scale) Transport processes
