RECYCLING WATER VIA INFILTRATION GALLERIES IN URBAN GROUNDWATER

摘要

The research undertaken has demonstrated that MAR can be successfully used in an urban environment such as Perth. Infiltration galleries are a MAR method that can successfully combine the advantages of surface infiltration along with the benefits of being below ground, thus preventing uncontrolled access. When appropriate materials are used to construct the infiltration galleries, the research has shown that sustainable recharge using recycled water can be achieved.rnRecycling water through the subsurface and through the aquifer can improve the quality of the water and achieve recycled water that can be free of health risks to the community when used for non-potable purposes such as irrigation.
