The study of pollution movement is an important basis for solving water quality problems, which is of vital importance in almost every country. This research proposes the motion of flowing pollution by using a mathematical model in one-dimensional advection-dispersion equation which includes terms of decay and enlargement process. We are assuming an added pollutant sources along the river in two cases: uniformly and exponentially increasing terms. The unsteady state analytical solutions are obtained by using the Laplace transformation, and the finite difference technique is utilized for numerical solutions. Solutions are compared by relative error values. The result appears acceptable between the analytical and numerical solutions. Varying the value of the rate of pollutant addition along the river (q) and the arbitrary constant of exponential pollution source term (λ) is displayed to explain the behavior of the incremental concentration. It is shown that the concentration increases as q and λ increase, and the exponentially increasing pollution source is a suitable model for the behavior of incremental pollution along the river. The results are presented and discussed graphically. This work can be applied to other physical situations described by advection-dispersion phenomena which are affected by the increase of those source concentrations.

Abstract This study derives an analytical solution of a one-dimensional (1D) advection-dispersion equation (ADE) for solute transport with two contaminant sources that takes into account the source term. For a heterogeneous medium, groundwater velocity is considered as a linear function while the dispersion as a nth-power of linear function of space and analytical solutions are obtained for and . The solution in a heterogeneous finite domain with unsteady coefficients is obtained using the Generalized Integral Transform Technique (GITT) with a new regular Sturm-Liouville Problem (SLP). The solutions are validated with the numerical solutions obtained using MATLAB pedpe solver and the existing solution from the proposed solutions. We exanimated the influence of the source term, the heterogeneity parameters and the unsteady coefficient on the solute concentration distribution. The results show that the source term produces a solute build-up while the heterogeneity level decreases the concentration level in the medium. As an illustration, model predictions are used to estimate the time histories of the radiological doses of uranium at different distances from the sources boundary in order to understand the potential radiological impact on the general public.

Analyzing and improving mathematical models for water quality investigation are imperative for water quality issues around the world. This study is aimed at presenting the 1D unsteady state regarding analytical and numerical solutions of dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration in a river, in which the increase of pollution from a source is considered as an exponential term. Laplace transformation was utilized to obtain analytical solutions, while the finite difference technique was selected for numerical solutions. The results show that the rate of pollutant addition along the river (q) and the arbitrary constants of an exponentially increasing pollution source term (λ) affected inversely, while the initial concentration Xi affected directly, DO in the river. These solutions and simulations can be enabled for testing in various scenarios in terms of the behavior of oxygen depletion in polluted rivers.
