Solute Retention and Mixing Characteristics in CSO Structures

Publication: Urban Drainage Modeling

Abstract

Most current work regarding the outputs from CSOs and storage tanks is concerned with the treatment of aesthetics and gross solids separation. However, finer suspended and soluble pollutants are more important when considering water quality criteria. Work has been carried out to investigate the retention time and dispersion characteristics of a high side weir CSO structure in controlled conditions by employing a fluorescent solute tracing technique. Data from this work have been analysed to predict coefficients for input to ADE and ADZ numerical techniques, that could easily be incorporated into both river impact and sewer quality models. This would allow more accurate predictions of temporal variations in quality of the sewage in both CSO spill and continuation flows.
