Sedimentation and Subsurface Water Storage Systems

When engineers and review authorities first encounter our Rainstore3 Subsurface Water Storage System, they will frequently ask how the storage chamber is maintained, especially for the removal of sediment. The structural nature of Rainstore3 is different from all other storage devices, employing a series of closely spaced, hollow, loadbearing columns. These columns make it impossible to ...

The Benefits of Mixers in Water Storage Tanks

Why use a mixer? The main benefit of using a mixer is that it keeps your water in the tank fresh. If you don’t have mixer when the tank fills the warm water that was in the tank rises to the top and the new fresh water that is cooler in temperature stays at the bottom causing stratification. When stratification occurs, and the warm water stays at the top it never really gets used, and the ...

Study on extinction depth and steady water storage in root zone based on lysimeter experiment and HYDRUS-1D simulation

HYDRUS-1D was combined with lysimeter experiments to study extinction depth and steady water storage in root zone (Ws) of groundwater evaporation (ETgw) under winter wheat and silt soil. The measured soil water contents and daily ETgw with various groundwater depths were used to calibrate and validate the parameters in HYDRUS-1D. In total, 13 groundwater depths ranging from 0.5 to 5.0 m were ...

SAWA Project - HEA ,Watershap Hunze en Aa’s. Water storage combined with economic development.

In the project "Blue City" in the Provence of Groningen in The Netherlands, a new recreational lake of 800 ha has been created in 2006. The lake has a good water quality and creates an economic impulse for the poor region. In the lake an extra peak storage of 4 million m³ water is possible. This will happen once in 30 years. To avoid conflicts between WFD and FD the nutrient rich storage ...

Three examples of temporary stormwater catchments in dense urban areas: a sustainable development approach

ABSTRACTThe Seine Saint-Denis County Council carried out a study involving 200 water storage installations within its jurisdiction. The results showed that many of the basins were inadequate in such a dense urban area. The main problems were the following: difficulty of access, insufficient maintenance and poor integration into the urban landscape. To remedy the situation, the DEA launched ...

Collecting, transporting and storing water in karst settings of southern Italy: some lessons learned from ancient hydraulic systems

The karst landscapes of southern Italy, even though they show a lack or scarce presence of water at the surface, host a variety of ancient hydraulic works realized to collect and store water resources, to the advantage of the local settlements and for agricultural purposes as well. Ancient populations were forced to gain a deep knowledge of the territory in order to exploit the few available ...

Prevent Ice Damage In Potable Water Storage Tanks

It never fails… The battle of Summer and Fall happens every year right on or around Labor Day weekend in North Dakota. And most times, Fall wins in quick fashion. Moving toward October, the brisk shiver of cooler temperatures serve as an all too familiar reminder that it won’t be too long before the long prairie winter sets in. We often joke that the best thing about a North ...

Extending the global gradient algorithm to unsteady flow extended period simulations of water distribution systems

This paper introduces an extension of the Global Gradient Algorithm (GGA) to directly solve unsteady flow problems arising from the presence of variable head water storage devices, such as tanks, in Extended Period Simulations (EPS) of looped water distribution networks (WDN). Such a modification of the original algorithm was motivated by the need to overcome oscillations and instabilities ...
