Product Detail

Engineers and construction contractors will find valuable informatuion on any aspect of water-well aging issues and well rehabilitation.

There is no perfect remedy for ageing wells; rehabilitation techniques that may be useful for one well can be useless or even dangerous for the next one. It is for that reason that the authors chose to present each rehabilitation method, whether mechanical or chemical, with all its possibilities, limits, and potential drawbacks. You will find guidance on the latest testing and maintenance methods, economics of well rehabilitation, plus information on legal and environmental issues.

This book is an updated and expanded English translation of a German book published in 2003, thus many German and some Dutch references are cited. SI units are used, with US customary units given where possible. An extensive collection of conversion tables is provided.
