Spent geothermal water discharge to rivers: Risk or environmental benefit?
Sci Total Environ

Article Synopsis
- This study looked at how treated geothermal water affects a river when it's discharged, comparing it to non-renewable sources.
- Researchers tested the river's water quality before and after the geothermal water mixed in, checking things like temperature and pollution levels.
- The results showed that while there were some differences very close to the discharge point, the overall health of the river further away wasn't significantly affected, especially with good treatment and a diverse river environment.
