reactive transport modeling

Reactive transport modeling is a scientific method used to simulate how substances like chemicals, minerals, or pollutants move and change within natural environments such as soil and water. It combines understanding of how these substances flow (transport) and how they interact chemically or biologically (reaction). By creating computer models, researchers can predict things like how an underground pollutant might spread and break down over time, helping in environmental management, contamination cleanup, and resource extraction. It’s a valuable tool for understanding complex subsurface processes to make informed decisions.
