Recharge dams are impermeable structures built into stream channels that store stream runoff water by creating surface reservoirs upstream of the dam. They can be either designed to recharge the …

Rooftop rainwater harvesting is being increasingly used in urban areas to collect precipitation water. Uses are manifold and include surface storage in tanks, usage for irrigation and groundwater recharge. The …

For Aquifer Storage, Transfer, and Recovery (ASTR) water is injected into the aquifer through one well and is extracted by another well located some distance away. The underground passage facilitates …

For Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) a constructed deep well is connected to the targeted aquifer and is used for both water extraction and injection. This type of MAR is …

Soil Aquifer Treatment is a technology where water is recharged into the groundwater through soil percolation under controlled conditions. During percolation, natural soil filtration processes occur improving the source water …

Surface spreading and specifically infiltration ponds are among the most applied MAR techniques around the world. They are based on the retention and spreading of water over a mostly flat …

The infiltration through shallow wells, shafts or pits is usually practiced to recharge a phreatic aquifer where spreading methods cannot be applied because of the existence of a low permeability …

For river/lake bank filtration surface water from a river or lake is induced to infiltrate by pumping on a well gallery or line of wells parallel to the bank of …
