Water wells are among the oldest hydraulic engineering structures in the world. Today, hundreds of water wells service water supply systems in Serbia, and groundwaters are widely used for public water supply. Extensive practical engineering experience in water well operation has identified a number of problems which affect well service life and capacity (i.e. reduce specific yield). Some of the encountered problems are, also, a result of microbial activity in groundwater. Products of life processes of groundwater specific microbial community cause biocorrosion, blockage, closure, plugging, deposition, and biofouling of well screens and collectors. We applied BART biodetectors as a reliable tool in monitoring well rehabilitation effectiveness. This paper presents several process assessments based on BART biodetector tests conducted at Belgrade groundwater source.
