WRRCTR No.5 A Survey of Literature on Groundwater Recharge and Sulfide Generation

Abstract

A critical appraisal of the extant literature was made to evaluate the various studies and concepts derived from these studies pertinent to groundwater recharge with respect to treatment, transport, and storage of recharge water. The need for more scientific methods of underground disposal of waste waters, concepts of water filtration, mechanisms of clogging, and percolation studies is extensively reviewed. The extent of occurrence and optimum conditions for sulfide generation was also traced historically.
