Contaminant Accumulation in Best Management Practices: Implications for the Performance of Catchment Basins
| 项目名称： | Contaminant Accumulation in Best Management Practices: Implications for the Performance of Catchment Basins |
| 摘要： | Stormwater runoff contains dissolved pollutants but it is well known that a much larger fraction of the contaminants is associated with suspended solids. The control of these contaminated solids is typically addressed by Best Management Practices (BMP), such as retention/detention ponds or catchment basins in general. This project proposes a comprehensive study of catchment basins to elucidate the impact of seasonal weather conditions onto the fate and multi-phase transport of a particularly important class of petroleum hydrocarbons (PH) in stormwater runoff, which, for the purpose of this project, include semi-volatile poly-aromatic-hydrocarbons (PAH) and volatile mono-aromatic compounds, such as benzene or toluene. The potential outcomes of this study may have important ramifications for designing and maintaining BMP system and, in general, are relevant to meeting National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and MS4 requirements and Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) regulations. |
