英文摘要 | To overcome water scarcity issues in arid and semi-arid regions, Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) remains a viable and suitable solution to manage and restore aquifers. However, clogging represents a major issue that can affect the durability and efficiency of MAR structures. The aim of this study was to evaluate the extent of clogging in MAR sites (Berrechid, Morocco). To achieve this objective, two field-based studies were undertaken: the first one consists of implantation of sand-filled columns in the recharge sites to evaluate the surface and subsurface clogging. The second one consists of the implantation of pickets over a 750 m(2) area in each recharge site to measure the extent of deposit thickness on the surface of the wadi bed. Results show that, despite the low rainfall (<1.4 mm/day) and the short period (91 days) of the study, the deposits thickness exceeds 3 cm in a large part of the MAR. The suspended solids concentrations measured in recharge sites ranged from 1.1 to 1.4 g/L. Due to the particles retention, the estimation of the saturated hydraulic conductivity (k) of the sand declines over 90% in the immediate entrance of the columns. The k values measured in situ during the drying period ranged from 10(-5) to 10(-6) m/s. The k values of the cake formed, without cracks, was about 10-8 m/s. The presence of cracks drives the entire infiltration. However, due to the high plasticity index of theMAR soil, a slight reduction of cracks opening during wetting cycles is observed. In addition, particles deposited in these cracks, would contribute actively to the reduction of infiltration. The results of this study clearly showed theMAR sites vulnerability in semi-arid regions due to physical clogging. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. |
