2. Sludging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sludging

   Well documented examples are the Rota-sludge, Baptist and some variants of the EMAS drilling methods. Perhaps the simplest and cheapest of them all is the Baptist well drilling method, which uses lightweight and cheap PVC pipe for most of the drill stem and in which the drill bit doubles as a foot valve. Wells over 100 metres deep have been ...

3. Baptist well drilling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baptist_well_drilling

   If required, the upper part of the well can be reamed and cased with larger diameter pipe (3 or 5 inches), to accommodate larger pumps. A shallow (large diameter) rope pump, for example, may require a wider well and submersible pumps commonly need at least 4". Note that there is no need to enlarge the entire depth of the borehole: reaming until ...

4. Hand pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_pump

   On the up stroke of the piston the foot valve opens and suction brings water into the pump head. On the following down stroke of the piston the valve on the piston opens up and allows water to flow above the piston. On the successive up stroke of the piston water is pushed out of the outlet. A rural handpump in Belgium.

5. Completion (oil and gas wells) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completion_(oil_and_gas_wells)

   Gas lift well: gas is fed into valves installed in mandrels in the tubing strip. The hydrostatic head is lowered and the fluid is gas lifted to the surface. Single-well alternate completions: in this instance there is a well with two zones. In order to produce from both the zones are isolated with packers.

6. Reduced pressure zone device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_pressure_zone_device

   Because certain combinations of check valve failure and/or system backpressure cause the relief valve to discharge, the device must be mounted in a location where the drain will not become flooded. An example of where backflow would harm the water supply is the use of well washing devices inside underground sewerage pumping stations.

7. Check valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_valve

   A check valve, non-return valve, reflux valve, retention valve, foot valve, or one-way valve is a valve that normally allows fluid (liquid or gas) to flow through it in only one direction. [1] Check valves are two-port valves, meaning they have two openings in the body, one for fluid to enter and the other for fluid to leave. There are various ...
