The first flush in sewer systems
The first flush phenomenon of urban wet weather discharges is presently a controversial subject. Scientists do not agree with its reality, nor with its influences on the size of treatment works. Those disagreements mainly result from the unclear definition of the phenomenon.

First flush analysis of urban stormwater runoff from an urban catchment in Johor, Malaysia
An increase of pollutants that are present in the initial stage of stormwater runoff hydrograph compared to a later stage of runoff is defined as a first flush phenomenon. This study aims to investigate the occurrence of first flush from samples of urban

Water Quality and the First-Flush Effect in Roof-Based Rainwater Harvesting, Part II: First Flush
Rainwater runoff samples from a range of roofing materials were temporally collected from 19 small-scale roof structures and two commercial buildings through simulated and actual storm events, and the concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), phosphorus flame retardants (PFLs), and pyrethroid insecticides and other water quality ...

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 ...

The application of improved flow diverter for first flush management
The paper presents the investigations on first flush phenomenon based on the total suspended solids (TSS) concentration measurement during selected rainfalls at central part of Czestochowa (Poland) and also the hydrodynamic model of the catchment. The model allows to present the conception of first flush management using an improved flow diverter ...

Influence of Rainfall Characteristics on First Flush Behaviour [PDF]
Abstract Urban stormwater with impervious surface often produces runoff with a variety of contaminants. This paper discusses an investigation into the influence of rainfall characteristics toward the first flush behaviour. This study involved field investigations, sampling of urban stormwater runoff, laboratory testing and data analysis.

Evaluation of the methods for first flush analysis in urban watersheds
The general tendency between the ratio of cumulative pollutant loads and the ratio of cumulative runoff appears as a nonlinear form which can be expressed in the form of a third polynomial. In this paper third degree polynomials were applied to represent the first flush curves based on the relationship between the cumulative pollutant load ratio and ...

Characteristics of particle-associated PAHs in a first flush of a highway runoff
Runoff monitoring of six rainfall events was carried out in a highway, Winterthur, Switzerland focusing on first flush (runoff volume up to 2.88 mm). Six runoff events were used to investigate the characteristics of particle-associated PAHs in first flush.
