Water quality performance of a batch-type stormwater detention basin.
The objective of this research was to modify an extended detention basin to provide batch treatment of stormwater runoff. An automated valve/controller was developed and placed on the outlet of a detention basin in Austin, Texas, which allowed the water quality volume to be retained in the basin for a preset length of time. The influent and effluent of the modified basin were monitored for tota...
متن کاملGreen Infrastructure Design for Stormwater Runoff and Water Quality: Empirical Evidence from Large Watershed-Scale Community Developments
Green infrastructure (GI) design is advocated as a new paradigm for stormwater management, whereas current knowledge of GI design is mostly based on isolated design strategies used at small-scale sites. This study presents empirical findings from two watershed-scale community projects (89.4 km and 55.7 km) in suburban Houston, Texas. The GI development integrates a suite of on-site, infiltratio...
متن کاملRunoff Characteristics of Stormwater and Washoff Water Quality from Roof and Road Surfaces
Owing to overflows from combined sewer pipe systems, water quality of receiving waters, including urban rivers, has become worse year by year. Appropriate countermeasures that can mitigate the overflows, therefore, must be developed promptly. The authors have investigated a distributed simulation model of water quality and stormwater runoff in urban sewer pipe systems. First, a surface routing ...
متن کاملCoastal water quality impact of stormwater runoff from an urban watershed in southern California.
Field studies were conducted to assess the coastal water quality impact of stormwater runoff from the Santa Ana River, which drains a large urban watershed located in southern California. Stormwater runoff from the river leads to very poor surf zone water quality, with fecal indicator bacteria concentrations exceeding California ocean bathing water standards by up to 500%. However, cross-shore ...
متن کاملStormwater Chemistry and Water Quality
Components of road surface degradation are common constituents of urban runoff. Studies conducted in Europe have indicated that as much as 0.05-0. 10 inch of pavement surface is worn away from the roadway each year. The largest component of street pavement is the aggregate material itself, with additional smaller quantities originating from the asphalt binder, fillers and substances applied to ...
