Artificial recharge system |
| 摘要 |
An artificial recharge system and method for recharging an aquifer. The artificial recharge system includes a constructed wetland, a settling pond, and a porous recharge reservoir. The constructed wetland receives water from a surface water source and has aquatic vegetation used to remove sediments and chemicals from the water. The settling pond receives the water from the constructed wetland and provides additional sediment removal. The porous recharge reservoir, which is hydraulically connected to the aquifer, receives the water from the settling pond. The water flows by gravity from the porous recharge reservoir to the aquifer. A backflush tube installed within a sand layer in the porous recharge reservoir is used to remove sediment and particulates from the sand layer. |

1. An artificial recharge system for recharging an aquifer, comprising:
a constructed wetland that receives water from a surface water source, the constructed wetland having aquatic vegetation used to remove sediments and chemicals from the water; a settling pond to receive the water from the constructed wetland and provide additional sediment removal; and a porous recharge reservoir receiving the water from the settling pond, the recharge reservoir being hydraulically connected to the aquifer to recharge the aquifer with the water. |
