Micropollutant concentration fluctuations in combined sewer overflows require short sampling intervals [PDF]
Water Research X, 2023 Combined sewer overflows (CSOs) are an important pathway of organic micropollutants from urban areas to open water bodies. Understanding the temporal dynamics of these micropollutants during overflow events is crucial for applying appropriate sampling ...

The theoretical role of the wind in aerosolising microplastics and nanoplastics from coastal combined sewer overflows [PDF]
Scientific ReportsInhaled microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) have shown bio-persistence in the body, with concerning implications for human health. Airborne MNPs primarily originate from terrestrial sources, but sea air may contribute when onshore ‘aerosolising’ winds ...

Partitioning of Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Fecal Indicators Varies Intra and Inter-Storm during Combined Sewer Overflows [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Combined sewer overflows (CSOs) degrade water quality through the release of microbial contaminants in CSO effluent. Improved understanding of the partitioning of microbial contaminants onto settleable particles can provide insight into their fate in end-

Predicting combined sewer overflows chamber depth using artificial neural networks with rainfall radar data [PDF]
Water Science and Technology, 2014 Combined sewer overflows (CSOs) represent a common feature in combined urban drainage systems and are used to discharge excess water to the environment during heavy storms. To better understand the performance of CSOs, the UK water industry has installed

The impact of blue-green infrastructure on trace contaminants: A catchment-wide assessment [PDF]
Water Research XBlue-green infrastructure (BGI) reduce urban combined sewer overflows (CSOs) and stormwater outlets (SWOs). However, most conventional BGI are not designed to remove trace organic contaminants.

Priority substances in combined sewer overflows: case study of the Paris sewer network
Water Science and Technology, 2011 This study was undertaken to supply data on both priority pollutant (PP) occurrence and concentrations in combined sewer overflows (CSOs). A single rain event was studied on 13 sites within the Paris sewer network. For each sample, a total of 66 substances, including metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), pesticides, organotins, volatile ...
