The sulfurous groundwater of Longroiva Medical Spa, having a use that comes from a long time ago, was the subject of several studies and research. In the last 50 years, its quality has been tested at the physical-chemical and microbiological levels in the different abstractions, namely, in the Classic Spring and the Well TD1, currently deactivated, and with greater detail in the current abstraction, Well AC1A. It was based on detailed studies, namely, systematic physical-chemical and microbiological analyses, that the sulfurous water from Well AC1A was legalized as natural mineral water; this situation made possible major investments in the place, such as the construction of the new Longroiva Medical Spa, among others. In this chapter, the stability of water quality over time is analyzed, based on studies resulting from the application of classical and multivariate statistical methods as well as the results of studies on the microbiome of these waters. The main conclusions are presented regarding the vulnerability of the aquifer and the exploration plan. |
