1 Infiltration of Contaminated Stormwater Runoff through Artificial Barriers Carsten Dierkes, Münster

2 Content Introduction Pollutants in Stormwater Runoff Aims for Infiltration Artificial Barrier Materials Research Projects and Results Conclusions

3 Urban Water Cycle high evaporation low runoff low evaporation high and fast runoff high groundwaterrecharge low groundwaterrecharge

4 Endangering Water Resources Photographs: Surholt und Keckevoet (2001)

5 Flooding

6 Green Roofs

7 Infiltration Swales

8 Problems of Stormwater Treatment High levels of TSS, filter capabilities are reduced Strong rain events, high flow-rates, short contact times with filter material Dissolved substances, mechanical filters can not solve the problem Space consuming systems Maintenance must be cost effective Control possibilities

9 Pollutants in Runoff inorganic substances heavy metals aluminium arsen cadmium chromium copper iron lead mercury nickel zink organic substances nutrients nitrate, phosphate pesticides phenols PAH benzo(a)pyrene anthracene benzo(g,h,i)perylene salt bacteria, viruses hydrocarbons
