Modelling Runoff and Diffuse Pollution Loads in Urban Areas

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 1999
This paper presents a simple approach for estimating long-term runoff and diffuse pollution loads in urban catchments, and discusses conceptual modelling methods for simulating daily runoff and pollution loads.

Urban Runoff Pollution Method

Journal of the Water Resources Planning and Management Division, 1979
This work devises a simplified method to evaluate the event magnitude of nonpoint source rain-induced UBOD loads for urban areas. The method is flexible, non-dependent upon computer simulation, and uses readily available data. The results appear to be realistic.

Pollutants in highway runoff

2005
In response to rainfall, highway surface runoff discharges may contain pollutants that have accumulated on the carriageway, particularly following periods of dry weather. In the UK the Highways Agency, in association with the Environment Agency, commissioned a 5-year study in 1997 to collect data to improve the understanding of contaminants in highway ...

Pollutants in Airport Runoff Waters

Critical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology, 2012
Runoff waters from airport areas constitute a serious environmental problem. It is essential to monitor levels of pollutants emitted into the environment and measure their toxicity on a continuous basis. The authors’ aim was to critically review data on pollution from aviation fuel combustion, aviation fuel spillage, the washing and cleaning of ...

Road Runoff Pollution and Measures

2012 International Conference on Computer Distributed Control and Intelligent Environmental Monitoring, 2012
With the rapid development of our country road, road rainfall runoff pollution has been got more and more attention. Combining with the current research at home and abroad, the paper introduces the characteristics of road runoff pollution, the pollution law and its major effect factors.

On Regulation of Urban Runoff Pollution Abatement

2011
A new regulation and storage mode, which the higher concentration initial rainwater is intercepted to the reservoir and sewage treatment plant, and the river self-purification capacity to treat the lower concentration initial rainwater is applied as a supplement way.

Pollutant Washoff Characterization of Expressway Runoff in Shanghai

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2009
Pollutant washoff loads from an expressway in Shanghai, China were investigated during a 1-year study program. The median washoff load during an rainfall event for total solids, chemical oxygen demand, total nitrogen and total phosphorus were 4,389.8, 2,123.0, 47.6 and 1.6 mg/m(2), respectively.

Identification of Roads for Urban Runoff Pollution Management

IGARSS 2008 - 2008 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2008
Urban roads are identified as major sources of many pollutants and the runoff from these areas discharges high pollution mass loads to receiving waters. Identifying roads is important for effective urban runoff and non point source pollution management. However, public land use information usually does not provide detailed road information.

Total pollution effect of urban surface runoff

Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2009
For pollution research with regard to urban surface runoff, most sampling strategies to date have focused on differences in land usage. With single land-use sampling, total surface runoff pollution effect cannot be evaluated unless every land usage spot is monitored.
