Performance of ejectors in construction dewatering systems

Performance of ejectors in construction dewatering systems
Performance of ejectors in construction dewatering systems
Construction dewatering in fine soils can be difficult, because well yields are often low and it is usually necessary to apply a vacuum to assist drainage. Ejector systems are therefore ideally suited to groundwater control in fine soils and have been used increasingly in the UK in recent years. Although their efficiency is low, this is not usually an issue when the flow rate of groundwater is small...

Abstract

Construction dewatering in fine soils can be difficult, because well yields are often low and it is usually necessary to apply a vacuum to assist drainage. Ejector systems are therefore ideally suited to groundwater control in fine soils and have been used increasingly in the UK in recent years. Although their efficiency is low, this is not usually an issue when the flow rate of groundwater is small...
