Abstract: This survey treats the mathematical pattern that describes the solute transport in the unsaturated zone of a porous media conducting the contamination to the groundwater. This problem is the result of the combination of three essential processes: water flow in the porous media, the heat transfer and the transport of the polluting agent. The governing equations are non-linear and present a very strong coupling. A numerical approach based on the finite difference method, for the resolution of one-dimensional problem is proposed.
