In this paper we investigate the family of nonlinear partial differential equations used to describe the kinetics of critical phenomena within the Landau–Ginzburg model. An analysis of the recently obtained symmetry-reduction results for a number of such equations is provided from the point of view of pattern formation at criticality. Various possibilities occur depending on the choice of control parameters. An illustration is provided using several physical examples such as metamagnets and liquid crystals.

Phenols are especially suitable for defining the mechanism of their degradation in groundwater. Phenols, for the most part, do not sorb on clastic aquifer material. This allows for a comparison of their relative concentrations in groundwater to the concentrations of a tracer, and leads to conclusions which can be drawn about the kinetics of phenol degradation. We have had an opportunity to monitor, in detail, the degradation of phenols at three locations. All three cases involved gravelly and sandy aquifers and aerobic conditions. A summary of the analytical methods applied, and basic results obtained is presented. This paper represents a short overview of the flow and results of the monitoring and five tests which were conducted at the three locations over several years. We believe that the results are representative of the behavior of phenols in aerobic intergranular aquifers.

The biodegradation of naphthalene in the presence of Na montmorillonite particles, of montmorillonite/polyacrylamide complexes and of polyacrylamide alone was studied in batch assays under aerobic conditions. The concentrations of naphthalene used were below aqueous phase saturation. Adsorption-desorption experiments with montmorillonite and montmorillonite/polyacrylamides complex indicated that little or no naphthalene was adsorbed. Adsorption appeared totally reversible and desorption was rapid, reaching completion in less than 24 hours. Naphthalene was rapidly degraded by an adapted strain of Pseudomonas cepacia (10-25 hours) as a function of the initial viable bacteria count of the inoculum. The kinetics of naphthalene degradation in the presence of montmorillonite/polyacrylamide complexes or even with montmorillonite alone (with no naphthalene adsorbed), were slower (0.64 mg l−1 h−1) than in clayless aqueous solution (0.84 mg l−1 h−1). Dissolved non-biodegradable polyacrylamide had no effect on naphthalene degradation. These results indicate that particles decrease the rate of naphthalene breakdown byPseudomonas cepacia . This may be caused by the fact that montmorillonite particles are smaller on average than bacteria cells. Montmorillonite particles may cover bacteria and so limits nutrient mass transfer.
