Groundwater Injection
Modeling, Risks, and Regulations

Written by the foremost practitioners and leading innovators in the field, Groundwater Injection details the fundamentals of groundwater technologies, explaining how to improve water resource utilization and bring more predictability to planning. It shows how to assess the suitability of these technologies to a particular situation, whether you are evaluating a major aquifer that supports a large urban area or the water table under local agricultural sites. Look inside to discover—

• What sites are suitable for groundwater technologies
• Real-life groundwater injection project successes
• Why and how to assess the risks in projects
• Using models to predict costs, risks, and outcomes
• Regulatory and operational considerations
• Salinity factors
• Assorted example projects that demonstrate risk assessment, modeling, and other important concepts
