    Decision Making with Uncertainty in Stormwater Pollutant Processes : A Perspective on Urban Stormwater Pollution Mitigation (2019)
    Singapore : Springer Singapore
    Details Availability
    Keywords: Environmental pollution ; Hydraulic engineering ; Waste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution ; Environmental pollution ; Hydraulic engineering ; Water pollution. ; Water quality. ; Engineering geology. ; Engineering—Geology. ; Foundations. ; Hydraulics.
    Description / Table of Contents: This book presents new findings on intrinsic variability in pollutant build-up and wash-off processes by identifying the characteristics of underlying process mechanisms, based on the behaviour of various-sized particles. The correlation between build-up and wash-off processes is clearly defined using heavy metal pollutants as a case study. The outcome of this study is an approach developed to quantitatively assess process uncertainty, which makes it possible to mathematically incorporate the characteristics of variability in build-up and wash-off processes into stormwater quality models. In addition, the approach can be used to quantify process uncertainty as an integral aspect of stormwater quality predictions using common uncertainty analysis techniques. The information produced using enhanced modelling tools will promote more informed decision-making, and thereby help to improve urban stormwater quality

    Role of Rainfall and Catchment Characteristics on Urban Stormwater Quality (2015)
    Singapore : Springer
    Details Availability
    Keywords: Hydraulic engineering ; Environmental pollution ; Engineering ; Engineering geology. ; Engineering—Geology. ; Foundations. ; Hydraulics. ; Hydrology. ; Water pollution.
    Description / Table of Contents: The key highlights of the book include an innovative rainfall classification methodology based on stormwater quality to support the planning and design of stormwater treatment systems. Additionally, this book provides a practical approach to effective stormwater treatment design and development of a methodology for rainfall selection to optimize stormwater treatment based on both its quality and quantity. The case study presented in this book evaluates how pollutant buildup on urban surfaces and stormwater runoff quality varies with a range of catchment characteristics based on different rainfall types. The information presented will be of particular interest to practitioners such as stormwater-treatment designers, urban planners and hydrologic and stormwater-quality model developers since the outcomes presented provide practical approaches to and recommendations for urban stormwater-quality improvement. Readers will benefit from a state-of-the-art critical review of literature on urban stormwater quality, an in-depth discussion on stormwater-quality processes providing guidance for engineering practice such as stormwater treatment design and model development, a comprehensive overview on the application of multivariate data analysis techniques and a paradigm of the integrated use of commercial models and mathematical equations to undertake a comprehensive, urban stormwater-quality investigation
