In this work the application of delay differential equations to the modelling of mass transport in porous media, where the convective transport of mass, is presented and discussed. The differences and advantages when compared with the Dispersion Model are highlighted. Using simplified models of the local structure of a porous media, in particular a network model made up by combining two different types of network elements, channels and chambers, the mass transport under transient conditions is described and related to the local geometrical characteristics. The delay differential equations system that describe the flow, arise from the combination of the mass balance equations for both the network elements, and after taking into account their flow characteristics. The solution is obtained using a time marching method, and the results show that the model is capable of describing the qualitative behaviour observed experimentally, allowing the analysis of the influence of the local geometrical and flow field characteristics on the mass transport.

Sewage Sludge Compost

Sewage dump is the main organic waste component accumulating in water treatment companies, and therefore the utilization of dump remains a burning issue. Fertilization is the most popular and cheapest way of using sewage dump a part of which is intended for agriculture in most European countries for composting purposes. Sewage dump or its compost are suitable for fertilizing the upper layers of the soil in cases the concentration of heavy metals is not greater than sanitarian standards can tolerate. The examinations were carried out using different waste dump rates from Vilnius water treatment facility in willow (Salix viminalis) grown cultivated fields. The analysis of the soil was executed after one and two years following the fertilization process. The obtained results indicate that waste dump is a valuable organic fertilizer which contains small amounts of heavy metals. Separate heavy metals migrate from sewage sludge compost to plants differently. It was noted that the concentration of heavy metals in willows was greater (except for Pb and Cd) than that in the soil.
