Numerical Treatment of the Mathematical Models for Water Pollution

F. B. Agusto and O. M. Bamigbola

Abstract

To evaluate the environmental impact of pollution, mathematical models play a major role in predicting the pollution level in the regions under consideration. This paper examines the various mathematical models involving water pollutant. We also give the implicit central difference scheme in space, and a forward difference method in time for the evaluation of the generalized transport equation.
