| Summary |
|---|
| The gradual decline of water supplies or the direct lack of water in various parts of the world has caused water to become more and more in the forefront of the interest of professionals and the general public in all countries in recent years. With the development of industry, agriculture and the growth of living standards, water consumption is growing, but so is the pollution of surface and groundwater by industry, mining, construction and agriculture. The object of interest of this subject is therefore to ensure the supply of quality drinking and utility water and to determine protective measures against their pollution, which are already directly related to the protection of the environment as a whole. The issue of groundwater abstraction is one of the fields of applied hydrogeology. It represents a large area, including groundwater abstraction for water supply, land reclamation and groundwater abstraction in drainage in construction and mining. |
| Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
|---|
| By the capture we mean the collection of water from a water source through a capture object. The collection of groundwater as well as surface water must ensure hygienically safety, technically efficient and economical abstraction. Groundwater capturing is the completion of the exploration work. Properly constructed collection facilities must enable optimal pumping of groundwater reserves, their protection, level measurement and chemical composition of water. The filtration part of the collection object must allow water to pass through with minimal pressure losses without collation or suffocation. In this course, issues related to the design and implementation of collection facilities are discussed in detail, as well as the methods of equipping observation facilities necessary for the control of groundwater collection and protection. The greatest attention is paid to the equipment, because it is during the equipment that most errors occur and incorrect equipment then causes problems throughout the function of the collection object. The course also focuses on the maintenance and regeneration of buildings and measuring techniques, which must be kept in mind when designing collection facilities. |
