Influence of Plant Species and De-Icing Salt on Microbial Communities in Bioretention. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol Rep
Plant species shape bioretention bacterial and fungal communities and their associated functions, which drive system efficiency. These results underscore the importance of plant selection when designing bioretention systems. Moreover, the communities were preserved or recovered within 5 months after the exposure to NaCl levels typical of spring runoff.

Early Structural Changes of Constructed Soils in Bioretention Bed for Stormwater Infiltration

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
Properties of constructed soils determine the functioning of nature-based solutions, such as stormwater bioretention beds. Water infiltration, colloid transport and heat transport in the soil layer are affected by changes in pore system geometry of the ...

Removal of fecal coliforms from sewage treatment plant tailwater through AMF-Canna indica induced bioretention cells

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Fecal coliform in the tailwater from sewage treatment needs to be deeply removed by chlorine disinfection, but ensuing disinfection by-products (DBPs) bring severe environmental and sanitary risks.

Influence of different ornamental shrubs on the removal of heavy metals in a stormwater bioretention system

open access: yesAdvances in Horticultural Science, 2020
Several laboratory studies have shown the ability of bioretention systems to remove pollutants from stormwater. However, to our knowledge, no existing research has addressed the use of ornamental shrubs for improving water quality in bioretention systems

Assessing Stormwater Nutrient and Heavy Metal Plant Uptake in an Experimental Bioretention Pond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
With the purpose to study a solution based on Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) to reduce and treat stormwater runoff in urban areas, a bioretention pond (BP) was realized in the Agripolis campus of the University of Padova, Italy.
