Infiltration systems are widely used in urban stormwater management. Infiltration systems can significantly reduce stormwater discharges to sewer systems and may...

Detention basins are at stake in urban stormwater discharges (USWD) management strategies. If well designed, they are not only used to mitigate stormwater flood...

French vertical-flow constructed wetlands (VFCW) directly treating raw wastewater are known to perform well on for SS, COD and nitrification. They are also known to...

The heterogeneity of the unsaturated zone plays an important role in the water and solutes transfer as it accentuates both the development of stagnant zones for water...

Stormwater detention basins are used to preserve the quality of receiving waters by sedimentation during the wet weather. However, the removal efficiencies of basin...

Currently, river and lake sediments are contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), to varying degrees of severity. PCBs are persistent micropollutants in the...

Permanent production and use of organic chemicals for many purposes has resulted in their introduction and accumulation in the environment. Depending on their...
