Modelling Bioretention Systems

2018
Bioretention systems are of great importance LID structures for acting in runoff control and pollutant removal. Modelling bioretention systems are defying because many process and functions are involved. There are many efforts in modelling such systems.

Modeling Bioretention Hydrology with DRAINMOD

2010 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, June 20 - June 23, 2010, 2010
It has been documented that bioretention cells are an effective low impact development (LID) stormwater practice to remove nitrogen, phosphorus, and other pollutants at high rates, as well as to restore a site’s pre-developed hydrology. However, hydrologic performance has varied greatly in past field studies because of the impact of underlying soils ...

Heavy metal fates in laboratory bioretention systems

Chemosphere, 2007
Key to managing heavy metals in bioretention is to understand their fates in bioretention facilities. In this study, pot prototypes filled with bioretention media were built to simulate the conditions of natural growth of plants. Synthetic runoff with different heavy metal loadings (copper, cadmium, lead, and zinc) was periodically applied.

Hydrological performance of bioretention in field experiments and models: A review from the perspective of design characteristics and local contexts.

Science of the Total Environment
Bioretention is a widely used countermeasure to address stormwater runoff issues and restore the urban water balance. This review investigated the variety of designs and local contexts covered by earlier studies, as well as the means for assessing the ...

Impact and mechanism of microplastics on the denitrification of a bioretention system.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Microplastics (MPs) are widely distributed in the natural environment and are transported into bioretention systems through rainwater runoff, where they progressively accumulate. However, their impact on denitrifying bacteria within these systems remains

Developing nitrogen removal models for stormwater bioretention systems

Water Research, 2023
Bioretention systems have the potential of simultaneous runoff volume reduction and nitrogen removal. Internal water storage (IWS) layers and real-time control (RTC) strategies may further improve performance of bioretention systems. However, optimizing the design of these systems is limited by the lack of effective models to simulate nitrogen ...

Effect of tire wear particle accumulation on nitrogen removal and greenhouse gases abatement in bioretention systems: Soil characteristics, microbial community, and functional genes.

Environmental Research
Tire wear particles (TWPs), as predominant microplastics (MPs) in road runoff, can be captured and retained by bioretention systems (BRS). This study aimed to investigate the effect of TWPs accumulation on nitrogen processes, focusing on soil ...

Stormwater Capture Efficiency of Bioretention Systems

Water Resources Management, 2013
Bioretention systems are increasingly being used to control the adverse effects of urbanization on stormwater quantity and quality. The stormwater capture efficiency of a bioretention system, defined as the fraction of stormwater volume captured by the system, can be used as an important index of its stormwater management performance. In this paper, an
