SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CAPTURING WATER FROM UNDERWATER AND / OR COASTAL SPRINGS WITH OVERFLOW BASIN

Abstract

The invention relates to a system for capturing water from at least one underwater spring, comprising a separation means (1) for separating the spring water from the seawater, an overflow basin (5) including an opening for water inlet, and a spring water recovery device (4). The overflow basin (5) includes an overflow wall configured so that the spring water passes over said overflow wall to enter, by gravity, into the recovery device (4). Furthermore, the overflow area of ​​the overflow basin (5) is strictly larger than the opening area, and the overflow area of ​​the overflow basin (5) is located above sea level (8).
