A Mathematical Model Incorporating the Influence of Biodegradation on the Fate of a Simulated Oil Spill in a Brackish Aquatic System
Aims: To address the limitation in the Nigerian Oil Spill Model (NOSM) which models biodegradation using the first order decay process in which the rate of oil biodegraded is proportional to the initial mass and an empirical decay coefficient. It does not monitor the total biomass of the microorgani...
