Use of Functionalized Filter Media for Nutrient Removal in Stormwater Ponds
Many best-management practices (BMPs) currently used in urban regions have been developed to minimize flood risk, sustain downstream ecosystems, and secure the quality of groundwater sources either directly or indirectly. One such BMP is the reuse of stormwater by removing nutrients from the nutrient-laden “first flush” water collected in wet or dry ponds; this practice has led to the developme...
متن کاملOrganic BMPs Used for Storm Water Management
Recent university research has shown that a compost system can reduce storm runoff, sediment and nutrient loss, and increase vegetation and soil quality parameters relative to industry standard best management practices. State departments of transportation and construction companies have reported positive results in using compost as a filter media within filter socks. Compost used as a sediment...
متن کاملRole of Resilience in Sustainable Urban Stormwater Management
Typically, best management practices (BMPs) are implemented to help sustainable stormwater management in urban areas. Over recent decades the selection of urban stormwater management measures for a site has been a challenge among urban planners where thecriterion based on flood volume no longer suffices for selecting urban drainage solutions. Therefore there is a need to consider a set of holis...
متن کاملPolyurethane foam (PUF) passive samplers for monitoring phenanthrene in stormwater.
Pollution from highway stormwater runoff has been an increasing area of concern. Many structural Best Management Practices (BMPs) have been implemented for stormwater treatment and management. One challenge for these BMPs is to sample stormwater and monitor BMP performance. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using polyurethane foam (PUF) passive samplers (PSs) f...
متن کاملBacteria Removal from Stormwater Runoff Using Tree Filters: A Comparison of a Conventional and an Innovative System
Non-point source pollution of stormwater contributes high contaminant loads into surface water bodies and poses a threat to the ecosystem, public health and economy. Although (pre)treatment standards have not been introduced at the federal level, Rhode Island (RI) has set minimal contaminant reduction standards for stormwater using structural best management practices (BMP). As BMP performance ...
