| Stormwater managers are increasingly faced with the need to address many potentially-conflicting issues as part of their activities, ranging from flood prevention to protection of downstream habitat. New philosophies, such as a post-development goal of mimicking pre-development hydrology, have been promoted as addressing both the goals of water quality and water quantity control. These new management plans incorporate both infiltration and surface treatment/discharge into the development. A flowchart was developed to aid stormwater managers in stepping through the process of selecting an appropriate management/treatment technology. |
Research Digest - Infiltration vs. Surface Water Discharge: Guidance for Stormwater Managers
Urban stormwater runoff contributes to the degradation of receiving surface waters and groundwater. This degradation is caused both by the increased flows that result from urbanization (i.e., the...
Evaluation of GHG Emissions from Septic Systems
The emission rates of greenhouse gases (GHGs) from individual onsite septic systems used for the management of domestic wastewater were determined in this study. A static flux chamber method was...
Prefiltration/Clarification via Dynamic Particle Separation
The project seeks to develop a non-fouling medialess inertial particle separator for use in industrial wastewater applications. The device, capable of removing fine particles from a fluid...
Uptake by Algae of Dissolved Organic Nitrogen from BNR Treatment Plant Effluents
Available as eBook only
The importance of dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) in wastewater treatment effluent has dramatically increased as permitted effluent total nitrogen...
Evaluation of WET Testing as an Indicator of Aquatic Health in Effluent-Dominated Streams: A Pilot Study
This project evaluated the quality of data needed to determine relationships between chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) test results and in-stream biological condition. A data quality...
Reduction of Pathogens, Indicator Bacteria, and Alternative Indicators by Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation Processes
In wastewater reclamation systems, microbiological monitoring is conducted to ensure that the users of reclaimed water are exposed to minimal risks from exposure to pathogens. Typically, utilities...
Assessing Infiltration and Exfiltration on the Performance of Urban Sewer Systems
Sewer systems constitute a very significant heritage in European cities. Their structural quality and functional efficiency are key parameters to guarantee the transfer of domestic and industrial...
Guidelines for Utilities Wishing to Conduct Pilot-Scale Demonstrations
As stewards of public funds, Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRFs) can be conservative in their approach to new technologies and processes, which hinders the advancement of technology and...
Optimizing Filtration and Disinfection Systems with a Risk-Based Approach
Treated wastewater effluents contain high concentrations of particles; many of these particles are large (with diameters greater than 100 μm) and consist of densely-packed bacterial cells. ...
