Modeling and simulation to predict partial deposition of ammonia and specific growth rate of bacterial in homogeneous formation in Obio/Akpor, rivers state of Nigeria

Specific growth rate of bacteria has been expressed through characteristics influence deposition at various stratums to aquiferous zone. The growth rates of bacteria are under the influence of the substrate utilization that contaminates groundwater aquifers in various formations. Derived mathematical equations generated theoretical values that expressed the rate of exponential phase of ammonia deposition and bacteria growth rate in homogenous formation. Slight fluctuations were experienced in between the aquiferous zones under the influence of variation from degree of porosity and permeability of the stratum. Experimental values were compared with the theoretical values; both parameters produced a best fit. These expressed the application of the derived model that determines partial deposition of ammonia and bacteria growth rate in homogenous formation. The study is imperative because the model expressed partial depositions of ammonia that determine the growth rate of bacteria at various formations to groundwater aquifers in the study area.
