Review on wastewater treatment ponds clogging under artificial recharge: Impacting factors and future modelling

Artificial recharge (AR) of treated wastewater (TWW) has been widely applied in arid areas as a promising technique to replenish groundwater and control the depletion of aquifers. Consequently, surface clogging and reduction of infiltration rate (IR) in infiltration basin problems have appeared on t...
