We consider a nearest neighbor, symmetric random walk on a homogeneous, ergodic random lattice Z d . The jump rates of the walk are independent, identically Bernoulli distributed random variables indexed by the bonds of the lattice. A standard result from the homogenization theory, see [A. De Masi,

The motion of swimming micro-organisms that have a preferred direction of travel, such as single-celled algae moving upwards (gravitaxis) or towards a light source (phototaxis), is modelled as the continuous limit of a correlated and biased random walk as the time step tends to zero. This model lead
Diffusion in the presence of high-diffusivity paths is an important issue of current technology. In metals high-diffusivity paths are identified with dislocations, grain boundaries, free surfaces and internal microcracks. In porous media such as rocks, fissures provide a system of high-flow paths. R
