Abstract
Riverbank filtration (RBF) is a significant part of drinking water production in Hungary. Around 40% of the public water supply is based on RBF. It means that about 1,300 Ml/d is abstracted from bank filtration wells. In Hungary RBF areas are mainly along the Danube River, where large sand-gravel alluvial deposits have good hydraulic conductivity.
