Aquifer Storage Recovery of Treated Drinking Water
$238,190
Abstract
Identifies changes in water quality occurring during aquifer storage. Also evaluates the relationship between the rate of particulate plugging of wells and such factors as recharge water quality, flow rate, redevelopment frequency, and aquifer permeability. Provides a set of criteria for aquifer storage recovery (ASR) applicability throughout North America, as well as a discussion of pertinent issues to ASR such as cost-effectiveness and regulatory issues. In addition, uses available data to calibrate a hydrogeologic model to simulate mixing between stored and native water. Published in 1996.
