Groundwater recharge with recycling water through soil aquifer treatment (SAT) system was applied in a lot of countries. In the process of recharging, the SAT system plays an important role in degrading organic pollutants, removing bacteria, N, P and so on. Even if the pathogen can be removed effectively, however, it doesn't mean that there is no possibility for the pathogen going through aerated zone and contaminating groundwater. This paper presents an experiment on the transport and fate of the bacteria (E.coli) in SAT system, a packed silt soil column, under saturated conditions. The simulated solution considered the basic control index and maximum limit value of groundwater recharge with urban recycling water. The concentration of bacteria was 105-CFU/L in the secondary discharge standard of wastewater treatment plant effluent. The experiment included two recharging stages (firstly for 12 days and secondly for 22 days) with 11 days drying between them The results showed that there was no detection of E.coli, and the electric conductivity, total nitrogen, IMn became the same finally between the influent and effluent. The concentration of E.coli in the solid phase decreased from up to down. Because of the growth and metabolism of bacteria, the soil column was blocked, which was resolved through drying. This simulation of recycling water recharge in lab could make people understand the transport and fate of contaminants better, and provided reference to practical projects.
Keywords:E.coli; recycling water; soil aquifer treatment (SAT) system
