N3.02 (formerly N4.2) Mohanty 2014 ReNUWIt Annual Meeting Poster
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Low impact development (LID) or ‘green infrastructure’ aims to capture and infiltrate stormwater. However, LID systems rarely are designed for removal of pollutants including pathogens. Our work aims to enhance the removal of pathogens and pathogen indicators from stormwater and to develop a fundamental understanding of pathogen attenuation in stormwater biofilters so that their fate can be reliably predicted. Our initial work aims to develop and screen engineering geomedia including iron oxide-coated sand (IOCS), iron filings, and biochar for bacterial removal and to test their removal capacity under hydrological conditions relevant to stormwater infiltration. These experiments are conducted in simplified conditions that allow us to isolate key variables. Ongoing experiments aim to capture more complex conditions such as active microbial communities and biofilms, physical and chemical aging of geomedia, and complex stormwater matrices, which are expected in the field. Knowledge gained will next be applied at the test-bed scale and will feed into N4.1.
