| Summary: | The study focuses on the one dimensional Advection-Dispersion Equation (ADE) to study the dynamics of concentration of water pollution when the pollutants at the source is increasing uniformly and exponentially. Analytical solutions are obtained by using Laplace transform and numerical solutions are by Finite Difference Method (FDM). The steady state case is studied. The dynamics of pollution concentration along the length of river channel are studied through two dimensional plots by varying the rate of added pollutants, cross sectional area of river and water flow velocity. The pollution concentration decreases along the length of river (downstream) for each analysis. The analytical and numerical solutions are shown in three dimensional plots. The analytical and numerical solutions are compared with the help of relative error. The relative errors calculated for uniform and exponential increment of pollutants at the source are compared while studying the dynamics of the concentration. The environmental and chemical engineering may substantially benefit from such studies.
