How to “suck” water from a depth of more than 10 meters? Hypothesis.

Topics / Questions

Added 14 comments

I will share my thoughts about the "absorption" of water from a depth of more than 10 meters.

Suppose there is a well with a depth of 15 or 20 meters, do not raise water from it with an external pump. Why? Because the maximum water column that can provide atmospheric pressure is 10 meters, but in fact the pump pulls only with 8 or nine meters.

Then I got the idea that if the pressure in the aquifer is raised? If you lift it by just one atmosphere, we get a column height of another +10 meters, that is, real 18 meters.

But how to raise this pressure? The idea is as follows. Place the hose in the casing and lower it into the water layer slightly below the casing. And then we pump the compressor air into the casing. Well, this is one option, it is not final.
I thought of using a compressor from the refrigerator as a compressor, I have one.

But here the question arises: will air displace water from the aquifer?))) What is the probability of this event? I think a little. The air, too, seems to have nowhere to go, it is quite possible that under the ground it will turn out to get a stable elevated pressure and displace the water above, from where it can be "sucked" by an external pump.

The essence of the whole idea is to dig a small-diameter well, insert a plastic hose into it and calmly pump water from a depth of more than 10 meters. You can not use an external pump, but only work with a compressor, but the pressure will need a lot. Who has any opinions? The scheme is not final.

Airlift is a completely different one, the author proposes to implement a system for maintaining reservoir pressure, which cannot be implemented in a similar way.

Do not even try to implement this idea.

If you need to pump water from great depths, use a submersible pump - a centrifugal, screw, diaphragm, in general, whatever you want, any that fits into your well.

Here we have down a hollow where groundwater flows in the spring and then goes into the river. So I’m thinking, maybe there is a water vein under this hollow? I think it should be. My house is almost at the top of this hollow.

In Soviet times there were “specialists,” they said yes, there is a vein. True, they dug 27 meters in another place and threw everything on a quicksand.

ahah, presented the picture)))

That is not, there are no wells around, at least workers. I still thought, you can just lower the casing deeper and then displace water from it, as a result, the level in the inner pipe rises.

oh well, I’ll find a way. Guys out with 25 meters of the compressor blow through 32 polyethylene.
I’ll drill at 32, and we'll see. I hope I'm lucky and will be taken with a conventional outdoor pump. But no, option two, or in extreme cases, three ...

It seems to me that a lot depends on the structure of the aquifer. If you had a cavity after a nuclear explosion, the method would definitely work. But in this layer, I can assume, there are still someone's wells and wells. In this case, all your air will go to the rise of water in all wells and wells, and maybe even go into the atmosphere.

A hefty crazy idea. Tell your colleagues why it is so perverted in all sorts of non-natural ways, when there is a commonplace rod pump. For non-initiates, contact at least Google, at least Wikipedia. From the post, only one thing is clear - the author has a pump from the refrigerator, which SHOULD BE ADAPTED AT LEAST ANYWHERE.

Damn, hurry up .... I also "write already written" ...

Read on the topic of "airlift method" ... Dmitry ...
Once again, you invented something already invented. ("Everything has been stolen before us!" ..))))) (True, there are not refrigerators, usually compressors)))))

I mean, raising pressure in an aquifer is an extremely difficult task. Rather unrealistic.

Dimon, here is a video from Igor Beletsky. He painted everything perfectly! And study the formula very carefully. Better yet, just google the article from this video. We are waiting, sir. I won’t take her. Since you started the topic so come on - go for it!
