  1. 1. Sorption of humic substances and microbial activity in the course of artificial recharge of groundwater

    Author : Talis Juhna; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering;

    Abstract : Sorption of humic subtances and metal-humate complexes on aquifer material taken from basins used for artificial recharge of groundwater was studied in batch scale experiments. Distribution of bacteria attached to the material from uppermost layer and from the horizons below the infiltration basin were measured in the field studies. READ MORE

  2. 2. Floodwater harvesting for artificial recharge of groundwater - estimation and prediction for arid Iran

    Author : Hossein Hashemi; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Artificial recharge; Groundwater modeling; Climate change; Spate irrigation; Arid area; FWS; GBP;

    Abstract : Groundwater depletion in arid and semiarid areas is of increasing concern. Increasing water demand due to increasing population and climate change impacts have intensified the water shortage problems and put further stress especially on groundwater. READ MORE

  3. 3. Artificial recharge of groundwater for public water supply : potential and limitations on boreal conditions

    Author : Cristina Frycklund; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : It is motivated by the intentions of Agenda 21 to findalternatives to the increasing dependence on chemical treatmentin the production of public water. Conventional waterworkscommonly include chemicals for removal of organic compounds,for reduction of corrosiveness and for disinfection. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modern Artificial Recharge Plants : Combining chemical flocculation with aquifer recharge

    Author : Kristofer Hägg; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Natural organic matter NOM ; Chemical flocculation; Ultrafiltration membrane; Disc filtration; Managed Aquifer Recharge;

    Abstract : Water supply security is increasingly becoming a challenge worldwide. Surface waters, which are often used for drinking water production, have experienced an increase in natural organic matter (NOM) and frequency of algae blooms. Water quantity is also an issue due to increasing populations and potable water demand. READ MORE

  5. 5. Aspects of drinking water supply in areas of humic water

    Author : Talis Juhna; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering;

    Abstract : The thesis investigated several aspects that are important for drinking water supply from waters with high amounts of humic substance (humic water). The results showed that the composition of humic substances is important in their sorption to aquifer material during surface water artificial recharge through infiltration basins to groundwater.
