We address the challenges of limescale deposition and its management in urban construction sites, specifically within the Sumayil North project in Tel Aviv. Jet grouting, a method increasingly favored over conventional dewatering techniques for its minimal environmental impact and efficiency, is scrutinized for its unintended consequences on groundwater chemistry, particularly in relation to limescale formation. Our investigation centers on a dual approach: dissecting the geochemical dynamics leading to limescale deposition following jet grouting operations, and evaluating a remedial acid injection strategy implemented to counteract this phenomenon. We identify the critical factors influencing aquifer water chemistry through a detailed hydro-chemical analysis encompassing the Pleistocene Coastal Aquifer’s dynamics. The study reveals that the interaction between grout components and aquifer water significantly alters groundwater pH, driving the precipitation of calcium carbonate. The subsequent implementation of a sulfuric acid injection regimen successfully mitigated limescale accumulation, restoring pumping efficiency and neutralizing pH levels. We propose a workflow to manage and prevent limescale, emphasizing preemptive measures like custom grout compositions and controlled dewatering, with strict post-intervention groundwater monitoring. This approach balances operational efficiency, infrastructure integrity, and environmental stewardship in urban construction projects interfacing with sensitive aquifer systems. |
