Reduce the intensity of siltation of bulk reservoirs for irrigation and hydropower purposes

Abstract

The results of field studies to study the siltation of a reservoir and the dynamics of their siltation are presented. The article presents designs that allow reducing the amount of sediment entering the reservoir bowl. The structure will contain spillways located perpendicular to the bed of the supply channel, elements of connecting structures, a sediment storage facility, and a lateral water outlet to the sediment storage facility. The reservoir sediment has a mark below the bottom of the supply channel and above the maximum water level in the reservoir and a wall of large pebbles that act as a filter for residual turbid water in the channel. In the basin of the deposit storage, a road is provided for trucks and equipment to carry out its seasonal cleaning.

Measures to reduce negative effects of waste using the Amu-Bukhara machine channel

“…Its total length is 384.8 km, which supplies Amu Darya water to Bukhara and Navoi regions for irrigation. Water for the canal is taken from the Amu Darya through the first and second artificial streams, depending on the seasonal variation of water [5,6,7]. The length of these canals is 22 km.…”
