Rainwater harvesting: What are the potential effects of roof maintenance on runoff quality? France as an example
Currently rainwater harvesting is more and more popular in the world. The aim is reduce drinking water consumption in developed countries or create a point of access for water in developing countries, for drinking water or for plants irrigation. For developed countries the problems of rainwater re-use can be linked with micro pollutants contamination. Hence we underline a possible source of bio...
متن کاملEffect of P-Reactive Drainage Aggregates on Green Roof Runoff Quality
The main hypothesis of the presented study is that the negative effect of phosphorus leaching from a green roof substrate can be reduced by including P-reactive material in a drainage layer. In this work, different aggregates (Pollytag, lightweight expanded clay aggregates, chalcedony, serpentynite and crushed autoclaved aerated concrete) to be used as the green roof drainage layer are describe...
متن کاملA Review of Roof Harvested Rainwater in Australia
To address concern regarding water sustainability, the Australian Federal Government and many state governments have implemented regulatory mechanisms and incentives to support households to purchase and install rainwater harvesting systems. This has led to an increase in rainwater harvesting in regional and urban Australia. This review examines the implementation of the regulatory mechanisms a...
متن کاملA Rainwater Harvesting Technology by Roof Coating Using TiO2
Rainwater utilization has great potentials for recovering hydrological cycles, for buffering extreme run-off situations in the watercourses, and for reducing the costs for water supply in urban area. However, little information is available on the water qualities and runoff properties of collected rainwater, which is critical for efficient design and maintenance strategies of rainwater harvesti...
متن کاملClassification of Roof Materials for Rainwater Pollution Modelization
It has been proven that roof runoff water plays an important role in the high metallic concentration levels in urban rainwater since metallic elements are generated by corrosion of roof materials before being swept away by rainwater. The aim of TOITEAU project is therefore to model this phenomenon, evaluating the metallic flows from roofs in rainwater. To achieve this goal, an important work ha...
