Abstract

Model prediction and evaluation were to assess the model that can be applied to solve the challenges of Thermotolerant transport in the study area, the model are from experimental results through,  an equation from the experiments value  were  resolved, it   generated theoretical values, these values were compared with developed analytical model values, both values compared faviourable well, the model where able to confirm the rate of high degree of substrate utilization base on the rate of concentration in Aquiferious zone, high degree of porosity  has influence fast migration of microbes as presented in the figures, this condition are also from the influence on the geologic history of the study area, shallow aquifers  that deposit in the study locations were  as a results from these dimension, the deltaic nature in the study area are also one of the influence of fast migration of Thermotolerant to ground water aquifers, the comparative models are imperative, because microbial transport has a lots of influence, and in most cases the behaviour of Thermotolerant is not linear, the model that can solved these sources of pollution from these dimension should be thoroughly evaluated, this is to ensure that the models can definitely solve the problem of Thermotolerant transport  in the study area, the models haven’t been assessed has produced a good result, it  will definitely solve the transport of Thermotolerant transport in the study area.
