For the infiltration of runoff from traffic areas, a tailored pretreatment is recommended that is considering the site-specific contamination level, e.g., by using a vegetated topsoil in accordance with the German Standards DWA-A 138 and DWA-M 153. Following this approach, the contamination level of the runoff is categorized by the annual average d...
To remove heavy metal contaminations from road runoff prior to discharge into surface water or groundwater, highly porous sorptive filter materials are used. One effective material is a technical product based on granular ferric hydroxide. To specify the removal mechanisms, lab-scale column experiments were performed preloading the material with Cd...
Decentralized stormwater treatment systems for runoff from traffic areas are used for the retention of solids, organic substances such as total petroleum hydrocarbons, and heavy metals. Furthermore, a removal of nutrients such as phosphorus is required at several sites for water protection. Specialized filter materials can be used for the simultane...
For uncoated copper and zinc roofing systems, annual average runoff rates are estimated to be 1.3 g Cu/(m2 · a) and 3.0 g Zn/(m2 · a), respectively. Thus, the resulting roof runoff waters are frequently subject to treatment prior to discharge and infiltration into groundwater. However, currently there are neither federal requirements nor national s...
Traffic area runoff waters are polluted by several organic and inorganic substances. The most concerning inorganic substances are the heavy metals zinc, copper, lead, nickel, chromium and cadmium. The discharge concentration in traffic area runoff waters depends on site-specific factors, which are composed of fixed-site conditions of the drainage a...
In Germany, sodium, calcium and magnesium chloride and their mixtures are used as de-icing salts in winter roads maintenance. With the exception of small municipalities, pre-wetting technologies are used for spreading the salt on the roadway and de-icing salts are usually found in the months of November to April in traffic area runoff waters. Salt...

... Filter media intended for removal of various pollutants from storm water have been investigated, mostly in laboratory investigations, e.g., in batch and column studies. In these, a wide range of natural and engineered filter media have been studied regarding their capacities to remove various pollutants such as nutrients and heavy metals (Färm, 2002;Wu and Zhou, 2009;Chang et al., 2010;Norris et al., 2013;Reddy et al., 2014;Lim et al., 2015;Huber et al., 2016a;Genç-Fuhrman et al., 2016;Hilbig et al., 2017;Sounthararajah et al., 2017). More recently, Okaikue-Woodi et al. (2020) presented a review on filter materials for storm water management. ...
... In the winter season, abrasives and de-icing salts are applied on roads to ensure traffic safety [7,8]. This application directly causes a higher load of particulate matter (PM) to be present on the road surface [8]. ...
