  • Abstract

    The rate of pollution on soil are the major problem of ground water contamination in the study area,  the   influence from   preconsolidation and compressibility of soil influence on E.coli transport  has been carried out. This  is  to determine the rate of influence on  E.coli transport in pheratic aquifers, mathematical model were developed to monitor the influence on the preconsolidation and compressibility of soil on  microbial transports, experimental analysis were also carried out through a  standard column experimental analysis, ten samples were  collected in a drilling site at interval of three metres each for several location, the effluent discharge from the lower end of the column were collected and subjected to a thorough analysis, the  theoretical values were compared with  experimental values, and both  values compared faviourably well. This study has explained the transport of E.coli base on the level of concentration generate from aquiferious zone. The study has reveal that the exploration of ground water should be design with its criteria’s to prevent the wild spread of water pollution emanating from the E.coli transport  in the study areas, the preconsolidation and compressibility of soil were found to be insignificant on the transport of the microbes, the preconsolidation and its rate compressibility of soil  could not reduce the transport of E.coli on a natural state.
