Useful these infos, for simple realization with little investment.
These powerful 5 horsepower mini gold digger pumps therefore aspire to less than 7m deep.
For a deep well, it is better to use it in the opposite direction for injection which forces the pebbles to rise by the high flow of water which rises faster than their fall into the water, of the order of m / s , stones which can be broken by a drill, pile or tube with good mass which falls on it.
The water must be recycled from a large tank which is used to decant the sand
A mower motor mounted on a pump can be used.

With patience, this simplified drilling method should work.

Very interesting for sand, and to modify with pile or drill breaking the stone to transform it into sand, which goes up with water and the air under pressure to entrain sand with the bubbles which go up thanks to a little mud in sand (a bit like soap). !!!

Oil tankers make with mud as heavy as the sands !!

Good evening everyone,

Living in southern Brittany, I too was lucky to be able to dig a well ... er ... rather a borehole, in my garden.

To put it simply, I am attaching a few photos (if I can get there) for ease of explanation and then starting a little discussion on drilling.

I dug, as in the photos, in a very loose soil composed of yellow earth, clay and clay to find water at 3.50m and then with an auger up to 6m.

Hi neighbor, could you detail your method a bit?

Good evening everyone,

First of all, what was possible with me is not necessarily everywhere. A willow and a reed which obstinately pushed in a corner of the garden, gave me the idea to dig
to see if there really was water.

The survey of the ground ... a mine rod, diam 5/6 cm length 1.40, which I pressed with great ease.
Then I introduced a 40mm pvc tube into the hole made with the pencil, over a length of about 1m.

A 20mm galvanized bar in the 40mm tube with network pressure, I went down to 6.50m like that, without much difficulty. The T on the 40mm tube is used to evacuate the water that goes back up, so as not to have wet feet.The hole dug by the pressure allowed me to descend a 40mm pvc tube to 6m deep .... ....
For this evening I stop there, to follow .... I attach 2 photos

Good evening, here is a tutorial found on a blog, to make a hydrocureuse on the same principle as the suction dredgers of gold washers: http://www.discutbb.com/blog-249558-575 ... reuse.html more the concept is more compact so can easily be introduced into the well
this kind of device can also be used with a high pressure cleaner without mentioning a brand like here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0YWHqDK--E
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4evVTHjiq-A

this is what can be found in the american trade

funny air lift




by oli 80 » 28/09/12, 21:19

Good evening, here is a video that seems to be a fake
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6sejs7S ... re=related

we can see a pump by air lift powered by a fridge compressor with an aquarium air hose and a large tube coming out of a well with the water flowing continuously, without making a sacade

as normal we should see the water come out with little intermitance with the air, but nothing, moreover the water is conveyed over a long distance and the water flows normally at the end of the hose of the drinker

kind of weird

when starting it comes out of the water without air: normal the compressed air at the bottom of the hole starts by driving the water without air in the height of the pipe, but then the flow is irregular irregular sign of passage of air

the air lift is not a venturi or it takes a lot of air to entrain the water ... the air lift is something else: it works when there is a sufficiently long length of hose below the water level: as the rising pipe is filled with a mixture of water and air which has an average density lower than whole water, the level in the pipes rises higher than the water level in the borehole : if there is a long pipe below the level it is possible to raise a lot of water with little air

I saw an airlift working to purge a borehole and bring out a maximum of sand before putting an electric pump in it: with a fairly average site compressor it brought out a torrent by a 20cm diameter pipe, and it was brings out ten tons of sand in a few days

true or fake? it would be necessary to know the water level and the depth of the pipes ... it is possible that it works as easily in a very favorable case

it has no chance of working as well if the level is deep and if the pipe hardly drops below the level

Good evening, the pump on the previous video must be another principle than the air lift, a box at the bottom of the well with a non-return valve which lets water in, then when we put the tank under pressure with the water compressor air, the valve closes and the water goes up in the pipe that is maybe why it did not know at first, so here it is not an airlift but the pressure of the air which pushes the water a little like here
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygpLi9zqgsc
in this video there is no check valve
