Abstract

This paper examined the behaviour of micrococcus deposition in higher heterogeneous permeable gravel formation in the study area, diffusion was observed to pressurize the behaviour of the contaminant in terms of inhibition from other deposited mineral in the formation, such development was experienced in the study, the transport processes were observed to reduce the concentration at different soil formation, despite the fluctuation deposition of the contaminant, the concentration was very low due to an inhibition from diffusion of micrococcus concentration in the study area, fluctuation were also observed in the transport process, the pressure were from diffusion influences through some other deposited minerals that were also observed to cause more inhibition in the study location. Such condition express fluctuation from the simulation values, the study is imperative because the rate of micrococcus diffusion of contaminant has been expressed in various dimension, experts will definitely apply this techniques as another breakthrough in monitoring transport system of micrococcus in the study location.
