Computer Simulation of Phosphorus Movement Through Soils¹

ABSTRACT

Although the movement of P through soil can be described by mathematical models, this approach has certain limitations in practical application, particularly when soil is used for waste water renovation. To circumvent the limitations of mathematical modeling, empirical adsorption equations can be obtained and utilized in computer simulation of phosphorus movement. In this way, the renovation lifetime of a soil can be estimated. This approach is not limited to P, and can be used for any potential ground-water contaminate, whether inorganic or organic.
