Laboratory investigation on water quality and soil consolidation behaviour of soil- activated carbon mixture in riverbank filtration system

Riverbank Filtration (RBF) is an alternative water treatment process that makes use of surface water that has naturally infiltrated into groundwater through rivers or bank(s) and is extracted by using pumping well. Conventional water treatment method uses both physical and chemicals like disinfectan...

Sanitary engineering Riverbank Filtration (RBF) is an alternative water treatment process that makes use of surface water that has naturally infiltrated into groundwater through rivers or bank(s) and is extracted by using pumping well.

In riverbank filtration system, specific natural soil properties are needed to effectively filter and extract fresh water from underground sources. Such scarcity of having the ideal soil properties has prompt the application of artificial soil barrier as an alternative source for riverbank filtration to extract fresh water from underground sources.
