Carpark pollutant yields from first flush stormwater runoff
Stormwater runoff from carparks should be treated to remove pollutants before they enter urban waterways; however, differences in traffic characteristics and surrounding land use activities can result in varying first flush pollutant types and ...

Quantifying the first flush phenomenon [PDF]
Removing the first millimetres before rainwater is diverted to a store is a much-used method for ensuring high water quality in rainwater harvesting systems. Such first-flush systems rely on the initial rain to partly wash the roof before runoff water is allowed in the store.

Quantifying the first-flush phenomenon: effects of first-flush on water yield and quality [PDF]
First-flush diversion is increasingly recognised as a useful intervention to reduce both suspended and dissolved contaminate loads in rainwater systems. Such first flush systems rely on the early rain to wash the roof before water is allowed in the store.

Design Storms for First Flush Modelling at Sewer Inlets
First flush is one of the key phenomena in the dynamics of pollutants in urban drainage. It is affected by a number of factors, like the characteristics of urban surfaces and drainage systems, the rainfall patterns, the street sweeping frequency and ...

First Flush Stormwater Runoff in Urban Catchments: A Bibliometric and Comprehensive Review
First flush is a phenomenon in stormwater runoff that has been considered a topic of great interest in the field of nonpoint source pollution. Despite several attempts to define the first flush quantitively, the specified characteristics of the ...

Study on pollution characteristics of urban pavement runoff
Urban pavement runoff has become an important pollution source endangering the quality of urban water. This paper analyzed the characteristics of particle size distribution of road-deposited sediment (RDS). The variation of pollutants with RDS content is
