Content Summary | A numerical model for one-dimensional virus transport in homogeneous,
unsaturated porous media was developed. The model accounts for virus sorption onto
liquid-solid and air-liquid interfaces as well as inactivation of viruses suspended in the
liquid phase and viruses attached at both interfaces. The effects of the moisture content
variation on virus transport in unsaturated porous media were investigated. In agreement
with previous experimental studies, model simulations indicated that virus sorption is
greater at air-liquid than liquid-solid interfaces. Available data from experiments of colloid
transport through unsaturated columns were successfully simulated by the virus transport
model developed in this study. | en |
