Work package 3: Managed Aquifer Recharge
In this work package Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) will be adapted and transferred to the case study areas (CSA).
Main Objectives
- Definition of most promising MAR planning schemes at CSA
- Viability of Soil-Aquifer-Treatment (SAT) at Joao Pessoa (PB)
- Performance, impact assessment and ranking of alternative MAR schemes at CSA
- Recommendations for installation of demonstration units and transfer of MAR schemes to other CSA and to the regional level
Specific Objectives
- Identify and characterize potential alternative sources of water for Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) at the case study areas (CSA);
- Identify most appropriate MAR technologies and locations at the CSA;
- Study the pre-treatment requirements according to the water source and groundwater recharge technology
- Conduct spatial MCA studies, based on laboratory and field experiments to support the selection of adequate MAR locations and model development
- Define and quantify a set of socio-economic and environmental decision criteria in accordance to WP8 for performance and impact assessment
