Particle Size Distribution and Metal Content in Street Sediments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sediments that had accumulated during the winter season, and which were left at the surface when the snow had melted, were studied with regard to physical and chemical characteristics. The investigation was carried out in ...
Trace Metal Composition in Water and Sediment from Catch Basins
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: When eductor trucks are used to maintain catch basins, the mixture of water and sediment that is produced has to be disposed of in some way. This paper considers the quality of this mixture after it has been discharged ...
Handling of Urban Snow with Regard to Snow Quality
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Snow-handling strategies employed in Swedish municipalities today are not very different from those used
Litter in Urban Areas May Contribute to Microplastics Pollution: Laboratory Study of the Photodegradation of Four Commonly Discarded Plastics
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Plastic litter in the urban environment has been identified as a source of microplastics and stormwater a pathway for its transportation to freshwater and marine environments. However, few studies exist on the potential ...
Environmental Risk Assessment of Sediments Deposited in Stormwater Treatment Facilities: Trace Metal Fractionation and Its Implication for Sediment Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Detection of Wastewater Discharges into Stormwater Sewers: Effects of Travel Distance on Parameters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Fat, Oil, and Grease Accumulation in Sewer Systems: Comprehensive Survey of Experiences of Scandinavian Municipalities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Problems with fat, oil, and grease (FOG) in sewer systems have received relatively little attention, although in the longer term this might imply (
Valuing the Multiple Benefits of Blue-Green Infrastructure for a Swedish Case Study: Contrasting the Economic Assessment Tools B£ST and TEEB
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In addition to flooding and water quality management, blue-green infrastructure (BGI) provides multiple benefits to humans and ecosystems, including health and biodiversity. Various tools are available for assessing these ...
Occurrence and Concentration of 6 Metals and 28 Organic Micropollutants in the Forebays of Bioretention Facilities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Pollutant loads in urban runoff from anthropogenic sources contribute to degradation of downstream waters. Cities are turning toward green infrastructure to manage urban stormwater. Bioretention is popular as green ...
Impacts on Rural Wastewater Systems in Subarctic Regions due to Changes in Inputs from Households
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of water-saving appliances and heat exchangers is becoming increasingly popular to decrease water consumption and recover energy from preheated water. However, such in-household changes can bring particular ...
