Hydro-morphodynamic numerical modeling indicates risk zones for riverbed clogging [PDF]
Scientific ReportsRiverbed clogging compromises the ecological functioning of gravel-bed rivers. Physical clogging affects aquatic habitats and occurs when fine sediments infiltrate coarser substrates, reducing permeability, porosity, and oxygenation.

Reducing the clogging of emitters in drip irrigation systems using acid washing and ultrasonic technology [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe main challenge in maintaining drip irrigation systems is the emitter’s clogging. In this study, the acid-washing method was used to remove chemical blockages, while ultrasonic technology was employed to reduce physical and biological deposits in ...

Biological and Physical Clogging in Infiltration Wells: Effects of Well Diameter and Gravel Pack [PDF]
Groundwater, 2021 Abstract Gravity‐driven infiltration into the shallow subsurface via small‐diameter wells (SDWs), i.e., wells with an inner diameter smaller than 7.5 cm (3 inches) and no gravel pack) has proven to be a cost‐efficient and flexible tool for managed aquifer recharge (MAR), as it provides relatively high recharge rates with minimal ...

Physics-based prognostic modelling of filter clogging phenomena [PDF]
Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing, 2016 Abstract In industry, contaminant filtration is a common process to achieve a desired level of purification, since contaminants in liquids such as fuel may lead to performance drop and rapid wear propagation. Generally, clogging of filter phenomena is the primary failure mode leading to the replacement or cleansing of filter.

Predicting physical clogging of modular paver equipped with filter media
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2023 Abstract Porous pavements are simple to retrofit, good at improving the hydrology and quality of the water, but prone to clogging. There is little knowledge on the physical clogging processes through these systems, even though they play a significant role in the lifespan of porous pavements. This study’s objectives were to comprehend the
