摘要：The paper approaches the necessity and implementation of a viable solution for constant saline water evacuation, and its transportation to the surface of the mine. A major problem in Slanic Prahova salt mine has been found to be water infiltration. Sump flooding is due to the high humidity condensation of the air circulating along Unirea sump, making a constant air exchange between the underground and the surface, at a temperature of 12-15 degrees. Water infiltration coming from ground water layers are also a factor favouring sump flooding.
