<p>The present invention is method for constructing a synthetic infiltration collection system (10) for installation at seaside locations. This system (10) filters undesirable elements from seawater including detritus, suspended solids, garpage, debris, volatile organics, toxic and harmful algal blooms and other biologies. The resulting filtered seawater is then pumped to a desalination plant for de-salting. This system (10) comprises a subterranean reservoir (12) installed at a sheltered location, such as behind a set of dunes (14). A borehole (32) is created by slant drilling, the borehole (32) breaking through the surf line (30) and into the open ocean (24). A pipe (20) is laid in the bore hole (32), the pipe (20) extending fiom the reservoir (12) out to the open ocean (24). The pipe (20) ends in an intake (44), which is overlapped by gravel packets (52) which act as filtration media. The intake (44) receives water filtered through the gravel packets (52), which is transported through the pipe (20) to the reservoir (12).</p> |
