Predicting Dispersion Rate of Nitrobacter Pressured by Potassium Deposition in Silty Clay Formation at Wetland Area of Port Harcourt

Solomon Ndubuisi Eluozo

Abstract


This study predict the dispersion rate of Nitrobacter in silty clay, the study were developed to determine the rate of dispersions under the pressure of phosphorus in the study area, coastal deposition were observed to develop lots of Nitrobacter contaminant in the coastal environment, investigation carried out by other experts proof abortive in monitoring and evaluation of dispersion rate in the costal location, based on this factors, it becomes imperative to adopt this conceptual frame work by applying this type of techniques, the system generated the significant variable that influences the deposition of Nitrobacter in silty clay. To monitor this type of microbial specie the variables were subject into a system, the developed structure generated the derived governing equation, the derived solution was thoroughly expressing to monitor the contaminant under the influences of these parameters, porosity of the formation were one of the significant variable that will always determine the rate of dispersion in the study area. The study has expressed various conditions in which the depositions of Nitrobacter can increase its dispersion rates on silty clay formation.
