With increased emphasis on sustainability and brownfield redevelopment, well owners increasingly look to more cost-effective, long-term well development and maintenance solutions. Underperforming wells limit removal rates, shorten pump life, and increase remediation time and costs.

The performance of recovery wells is largely dictated by the effectiveness of a groundwater remediation system. Conventional well maintenance or rehabilitation methods often call for chemical processes, such as acids and dispersants, and/or mechanical processes such as brushing and jetting. More recently, owners and well operators are looking to impulse generation technology—used independently or in combination with chemical and mechanical processes—to rehabilitate groundwater recovery wells that are not performing due to mechanical or biological plugging. ...
