Four flow regimes were tested: steady‑state (Uniform) and sinusoidal flow with periods of 20, 40, and 60 min (T20, T40, T60), all at the same mean flow rate (1 mL/min). Bromide was used as a conservative tracer, and Zn²⁺ solutions (100 mg/L) were injected in three sequential cycles. Effluent concentrations were measured by ICP‑OES (Zn) and UV‑Vis spectrophotometry (Br⁻).Numerical data: The variable‑flow advection‑dispersion equation (ADE) was used to simulate bromide BTCs, and the Two‑Site Kinetic Attachment Model (TSKAM) was used for Zn²⁺ transport. Simulations were performed on a one‑dimensional domain (20 cm length) using a finite‑difference method with implicit time stepping. The mesh‑independence test (Fig. S6) verified that a grid spacing of 0.2 cm and time step of 1 s yield converged results (error < 1%).File naming: The file name follows the pattern "Supplemental Materials_HYENG-14634.pdf", where HYENG-14634 is the manuscript ID.
