Dewatering Systems Design
Characterization of the hydraulic properties that determine the underground flow, evaluation and determination of the extraction rates, associated water table drops and affected areas by the drawdown cone.
Design of the extracted water management system and the recovery of affected aquifers.
Description
We develop groundwater depletion systems through detailed characterization of the soil's hydraulic properties.
We evaluate extraction rates, water table drawdowns, and areas affected by the drawdown cone.
In addition, we design efficient systems for managing extracted water, ensuring sustainable management and the recovery of aquifers.
Area of catchment hydraulics where the effects produced by the extraction of water through catchments (points in wells or ditches) are studied, effects such as drops in the water table and areas of affectation (radius of influence of the drawdown cone).
Objectives:
Characterization of the hydraulic properties that determine the underground flow
Evaluation and determination of extraction rates, associated drops in the water table and areas of affectation by the drawdown cone.
Design of the system for managing extracted water and the recovery of affected aquifers.
