This presentation comprises hydraulic aspects of a research project at a bank filtration site at the oligotrophic alpine river Enns in Austria. The project was started in order to deepen the understanding of filtration and transformation processes which take place, where they take place and how stable they are throughout the year. Extensive monitoring equipment has been installed in the river bank focusing on the first meter of the flow-path from the river to the well. During the start-up period of well production the built-up of a clogging layer is monitored. Due to the dynamic interrelation between infiltration rate and hydraulic conductivity of the riverbed, clogging shows a balancing effect on infiltration along the bank stretch.
