Practical tips for new schemes
Free Online Webinar Presented by the CSIRO in Partnership with the NCGRT
Managed aquifer recharge, or MAR, refers to the intentional recharge of water to aquifers for subsequent use or environmental benefit. MAR offers numerous benefits, including storage to improve the security of water supply, including long-term storage for drought supply. natural treatment. All MAR schemes will invariably experience clogging of some type (physical, chemical or biological), and to some degree, during their operational life and is the single greatest operational risk to sustainability of schemes.
This webinar is for new proponents and operators of existing MAR schemes to assist them in recognising the potential for clogging and how to employ the appropriate mitigation or remediation measures.
The webinar will use case studies from both injection and infiltration MAR schemes and describe their approaches to clogging management through engineering design or operational management practices. Practical tips for managing the dominant types of clogging and principles on reducing clogging effects for new schemes will be shared.
