Enhanced Filter Media for Removal of Dissolved Contaminants from Stormwater

Enhanced Filter Media for Removal of Dissolved Contaminants from Stormwater

2014

The purpose of this project was to research materials that could be used in new or renovated sand filters, infiltration systems, rain gardens, and buffer strips to capture significant amounts of dissolved heavy metals, phosphorus, and nitrogen that are typically found in urban and agricultural runoff. This was accomplished with five primary objectives, which have been organized into five representative Chapters - Objective 1: Literature review and agent selection, Objective 2: Perform batch studies and agent selection, Objective 3. Perform column studies and develop descriptive models, Objective 4. Field verification studies, Objective 5. Public Outreach / Public Participation and Deliverables.
