Can allotment-scale rainwater harvesting manage urban flood risk and protect stream health? La récupération des eaux pluviales à la parcelle : peut- elle protéger contre les inondations et la dégradation des milieux aquatiques?
The traditional management of stormwater with a singular focus on flood protection has resulted in the degradation of receiving waters. The health of urban streams is degraded by a suite of stressors, notably, the frequent disturbance due to stormwater runoff. We investigate the catchment scale implications of allotment scale rainwater harvesting, in terms of potential simultaneous benefits for...
متن کاملDesign and Modeling of an Adaptively Controlled Rainwater Harvesting System
Management of urban stormwater to mitigate Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs) is a priority for many cities; yet, few truly innovative approaches have been proposed to address the problem. Recent advances in information technology are now, however, providing cost-effective opportunities to achieve better performance of conventional stormwater infrastructure through a Continuous Monitoring and Adap...
متن کاملApproaching Water Sensitive Cities with Adaptive Rainwater Diversion
Total water cycle management (TWCM) discussion mostly limits the role of residential rainwater harvesting to providing an alternate water supply to a fraction of fit-for-purpose end uses. However, with operational improvements, greater outcomes can be achieved. By increasing the portion of roof area connected and developing adaptive rainwater diversion (ARD), reliable stormwater management outc...
متن کاملAssessment of Biosorption Activated Media under Roadside Swales for the Removal of Phosphorus from Stormwater
Stormwater runoff from highways is a source of pollution to surface water bodies and groundwater. Excess loadings of phosphorus in stormwater discharged to surface water bodies can result in eutrophication. Treatment of stormwater for phosphorus is necessary in order to sustain ecological and economical benefits related to aquatic resources. If phosphorus is removed, the water can be sustained ...
متن کاملIntegrated design workflow and a new tool for urban rainwater management.
Low Impact Development (LID) practices provide more sustainable solutions than traditional piping and storm ponds in stormwater management. However, architects are not equipped with the knowledge to perform runoff calculations at early design stage. In response to this dilemma, we have developed an open-source stormwater runoff evaluation and management tool, Rainwater+. It is seamlessly integr...
