High levels of sewage contamination released from urban areas after storm events: A quantitative survey with sewage specific bacterial indicators. [PDF]
PLoS Medicine, 2018 BACKGROUND:Past studies have demonstrated an association between waterborne disease and heavy precipitation, and climate change is predicted to increase the frequency of these types of intense storm events in some parts of the United States.

Inflow and infiltration assessment of a prototype sanitary sewer network in a coastal city in China
Water Science and Technology, 2023 A 16-month monitoring program was conducted on a prototype sanitary system in a coastal city in China. The groundwater infiltration (GWI) on dry weather days and the rain-derived inflow and infiltration (RDII) on wet weather days were quantified and ...

Rain model — Boundary condition in sewer network appraisal [PDF]
Pollack Periodica, 2016 Appraisals results of divided and combined rain sewers highly depend on the appropriate choice of model rain. The goal of this research is to verify the impact of different rain models on results of rainfall totals, calculated flow in the network and in their overall effect on the assessment. This research focuses on three main rain models - block rain

Characterization of water quality among direct and delayed wet -weather flows in an urban combined sewer catchment of Thailand [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2017 The purpose of this research was to compare five water quality parameters (BOD, TSS, total zinc, TKN, and fecal coliform) in wet-weather flow of a combined sewer catchment against dry-weather flow, while making a distinction between direct and delayed ...

Reconstruction of rain sewer networks in the historical border of the city of Samara
Urban construction and architecture, 2023 The state of the centralized wastewater disposal system has undergone some changes over several decades, the article presents the problem of the negative impact of reducing water consumption costs on engineering structures, from precipitation and cementation of sediment in pipelines and concentration of runoff due to reduced flow, to the impact on the ...

Urban Floods: Linking the Overloading of a Storm Water Sewer System to Precipitation Parameters
Hydrology, 2020 The lack and inefficiency of urban drainage systems, as well as extreme precipitation, can lead to system overloading and, therefore, an urban pluvial flood.

Factors Contributing to the Hydrologic Effectiveness of a Rain Garden Network (Cincinnati OH USA)
Infrastructures, 2017 Infiltrative rain gardens can add retention capacity to sewersheds, yet factors contributing to their capacity for detention and redistribution of stormwater runoff are dynamic and often unverified.

Dynamics of rain-induced pollutographs of solubles in sewers
Water Science and Technology, 2005 When looking at acute receiving water impacts due to combined sewer overflows the characteristics of the background diurnal sewage flux variation may influence the peak loads from combined sewer overflows (CSO) and wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluent significantly.

Informal uncertainty analysis (GLUE) of continuous flow simulation in a hybrid sewer system with infiltration inflow – consistency of containment ratios in calibration and validation? [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013 Monitoring of flows in sewer systems is increasingly applied to calibrate urban drainage models used for long-term simulation. However, most often models are calibrated without considering the uncertainties.
