Groundwater Recharge

Groundwater quality has not substantially changed since 2007 recharge activities began in the Equus Beds aquifer in Kansas, according to a new study by the U.S. Geological Survey

Doctoral candidate Joanna Adadevoh was recently spotlighted by the University for her research into purification of contaminated groundwater through bacterial microbes

Doctoral candidate Joanna Adadevoh was recently spotlighted by the University for her research into purification of contaminated groundwater through bacterial microbes. Adadevoh presented her research last fall at the ninth International Symposium on Subsurface Microbiology in California.

Duke Energy Corp. will appeal a record $25.1 million fine imposed by the state of North Carolina for contaminating groundwater near one of its plants; a penalty that the utility describes as “regulatory overreach"

The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NC DENR) imposed the fine on Duke Energy on March 10 for the poisoning of the water at the utility’s LV Sutton Steam Electric Plant in Wilmington, NC, and plans yet more fines as it looks into possible pollution at other plants.

Study of arsenic cycling in a southern Willamette Valley aquifer is splashing with potential significance for arsenic-compromised aquifers around the world

In a paper online ahead of regular publication in the journal Nature Geoscience, Jin's five-member team reports on a bacterial process that turns toxic inorganic arsenic into organic forms that usually are considered to be less dangerous. Jin's conclusion now is that organic arsenic should be monitored.

EU Approves Dutch-led Research Programme Subsol on Protection of Fresh Water Resources in Coastal Areas

New way of groundwater management

Over the past ten years, KWR and partners have developed novel concepts to improve groundwater management and thereby significantly strengthen freshwater supply in coastal areas.

Participation in the EU Horizon 2020 programme, opens the possibility of introducing these subsurface water technologies internationally.
