Low-flow purging and sampling

While traditional methods like fixed-volume purging, bailers, or submersible high-flow pumps can remove stagnant water in wells, they often introduce significant scientific and practical issues. Low-flow purging and sampling extract groundwater at rates under 500 ml/min, aligning with natural groundwater flow. Our approach:

  • Minimises drawdown: reduces mixing of stagnant water in the well.
  • Preserves sample integrity: maintains more accurate water chemistry for dependable data.
  • Lowers disposal costs: generates significantly less purge water for handling and off-site treatment.
