【 摘 要 】

The behavior, transport and ultimate fate of contaminants in subsurface environments may be affected significantly by their participation in sorption reactions and related phenomena. The degree to which the resulting effects can be quantified and predicted upon the extent to which certain fundamental aspects of sorption are understood, and upon the accuracy with which these phenomena can be characterized and modeled in complex subsurface systems. Current levels of understanding of the reactions and processes comprising sorption phenomena are discussed in this paper, as are the forms and utilities of different models used to describe them. Emphasis is placed on concept development, on the translation of these concepts into functional models for characterizing sorption rates and equilibria, and on the application of these concepts and models for explaining contaminant behavior in subsurface systems. Examples are provided to illustrate the impacts of sorption phenomena on contaminant transport.
