Cleaning Up Reservoirs: Challenges and Solutions in a Changing World
The cleaning of reservoirs represents one of the great contemporary challenges, although it often goes unnoticed.
Increasing human pressure and climate change threaten these valuable water resources.
But how do we address these challenges, and what solutions are available?
The Challenges Of Reservoir Cleanup
Our reservoirs are threatened by a number of interrelated problems.
The main one is pollution, be it microplastics, pesticides, industrial waste, or unwanted debris.
Moreover, climate change is exacerbating these problems, with extreme weather events often resulting in flooding and the introduction of additional pollutants.
