How can we prevent dryland reservoirs filling with sediment?

Feb 13, 2013

Category: Water Utilities

How can we prevent dryland reservoirs filling with sediment The challenge Build a dam, interrupt the movement of water and, inevitably, the reservoir will fill with sediment…
Build a dam, interrupt the movement of water and, inevitably, the reservoir will fill with sediment brought down feeder rivers during floods. The rate of fill varies with the condition of the water catchment ‘commanded’ by the impounding dam and especial… https://www.wskep.net/waterr2b/sectors/water-utilities/prevent-reservoirs-filling-sediment/
