Reservoirs |
Storage reservoirs provide a consistent supply of irrigation water, provide storage for farms with tail water recovery, and reduce energy costs. Water reservoirs and effluent reservoirs form the operational basis for many water irrigation systems.
Water reservoirs and effluent reservoirs are a cornerstone in the field of agriculture in Israel. With the help of the water reservoirs, it is possible to reduce the consumption of fresh water and maximize the use of effluent water for agriculture. Design considerations for irrigation storage reservoirs include site selection, permitting requirements, sizing, grading design, outlet design, and liner selection. Reservoirs should be designed in order to be safe during the course of its life, the design considerations must include: slopes stability under all possible conditions, includes rapid reservoir drawdown, seepage control and more. Effluent soil reservoirs design include: HPDE liner sheets, earthworks, piping, pumping and installation work, fencing, various control facilities and sealing against seepage. |
