Accumulation of typical persistent organic pollutants and heavy metals in bioretention facilities: Distribution, risk assessment, and microbial community impact. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 252:119107. [PMID: 38723989 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024]
Abstract
Bioretention facilities have proven highly effective in removing pollutants from runoff. However, there is a concerning paucity of research on the contamination characteristics and associated risks posed by refractory pollutants in these facilities following long-term operation. This research focuses on the distribution, sources, microbial community impact, and human health risks of pollutants in eight bioretention facilities that have been operational for 5-11 years. The results showed that the distribution of Cu, Zn, and Cd was closely related to anti-seepage measures. PAHs, PCBs, and OCPs primarily accumulated in the surface, with concentrations ranging from 7.42 to 20.34 mg/kg, 31.8-77.3 μg/kg, and 60.5-163.6 μg/kg, respectively. Their concentrations inversely correlate with the depth of the media. Although the majority of contaminants remained below their respective risk thresholds, their concentrations typically exceeded those of background soil values, indicating an enrichment phenomenon. Source analysis revealed that PAHs primarily originate from oil combustion, PCBs were linked to their related industrial products, DDTs had their main sources in technical DDx and residues from the use of dicofol, while HCHs were traced back to historical residues from agricultural activities. Microbial α-diversity (Chao 1 and Shannon) decreased by 8.3-23.4% and 0.8-4.4%, respectively, in different facilities after long-term operation. The most dominant microbial phylum in the facilities was Proteobacteria (all relative abundances >48%). The total relative abundance of dominant genera was 6.7-34.3% higher than the control site, and Pseudomonas, a typical POPs-heavy metal degrading bacterium, had the highest relative abundance (>1.2%). Cu, Zn, and Cd present no non-carcinogenic risks and have low potential ecological risks. However, the lifetime cancer risk for PAHs is 10-6 ∼10-4 in most facilities and is of concern. The cancer risk for PCBs is acceptable, while OCPs pose a low cancer risk only for children.

Montoya-Coronado VA, Tedoldi D, Lenormand E, Castebrunet H, Molle P, Lipeme Kouyi G. Combined sewer overflow mitigation through SUDS - A review on modelling practices, scenario elaboration, and related performances. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 362:121073. [PMID: 38833926 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.121073] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/06/2024]
Abstract
Hydrologic-hydraulic modelling of urban catchment is an asset for land managers to simulate Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) implementation to fulfil combined sewer overflow (CSO) regulations. This review aims to assess the current practices in modelling SUDS scenarios at large scale for CSO mitigation encompassing every stage of the modelling process from the choice of the equation to the validation of the initial state of the urban system, right through to the elaboration, modelling, and selection of SUDS scenarios to evaluate their performance on CSO. Through a quantitative and qualitative analysis of 50 published studies, we found a diversity of choices when modelling the status quo of the urban system. Authors generally do not explain the modelling processes of slow components (deep infiltration, groundwater infiltration) and interconnexion between SUDS and the sewer system. In addition, only a few authors explain how CSO structures are modelled. Furthermore, the modelling of SUDS implementation at catchment scale is highlighted in the 50 studies retrieved with three different approaches going from simplified to detailed. SUDS modelling choices seem to be consistent with the objectives: studies focusing on dealing with several objectives at the time typically opt for a complex system configuration that includes the surface processes, network, CSO, SUDS, and often the soil and/or groundwater components. Conversely, authors who have selected a basic configuration generally aim to address a single, straightforward question (e.g., which type of SUDS). However, elaboration and selection of scenarios for CSO mitigation is mainly based on local constraints, which does not allow hydrological performance to be directly optimised. In conclusion, to improve current practices in modelling SUDS scenarios at large scale for CSO mitigation, authors suggest to: (i) improve clear practices of CSO modelling, calibration and validation at the urban catchment scale, (ii) develop methods to optimize the performance of scenarios for CSO mitigation using hydrological drivers, and (iii) improve parsimonious and user-friendly models to simulate SUDS scenarios in a context of data scarcity.

Abstract
The bioretention system is one of the most widely used low impact development (LID) facilities with efficient purification capacity for stormwater, and its planting design has been a hot spot for research at home and abroad. In this paper, ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), bermuda (Cynodon dactylon Linn.), bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flugge), and green grass (Cynodon dactylon × C .transadlensis 'Tifdwarf') were chosen as plant species to construct a shallow bioretention system. The growth traits and nutrient absorption ability of four gramineous plants were analyzed. Their tolerance, enrichment, and transportation capacity were also evaluated to compare plant species and their absorptive capacity of heavy metals (Cu, Pb, and Zn). Results showed that the maximum absorption rate (Imax) ranged from 22.1 to 42.4 μg/(g·h) for P and ranged from 65.4 to 104.8 μg/(g·h) for NH4+-N; ryegrass had the strongest absorption capacity for heavy metals and the maximum removal rates of Cu, Pb, and Zn by four grasses were 78.4, 59.4, and 51.3%, respectively; the bioretention cell with ryegrass (3#) was significantly more effective in purifying than the unplanted bioretention cell (1#) during the simulated rainfall test. Overall, the system parameters were optimized to improve the technical application of gramineous plants in the bioretention system.

Qiu Y, Schertzer D, Tchiguirinskaia I. Assessing spatial scales in hydrological effectiveness and economic costs of nature-based solutions within a scale-invariance framework. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 909:168653. [PMID: 37979869 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.168653] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 11/20/2023]
Abstract
This study proposed a scale-invariance framework within the fractal and Universal Multifractal (UM) framework to assess hydrological performances and economic dimensions of nature-based solutions (NBS) across various spatial scales. Firstly, a series of NBS scenarios are created by implementing NBS heterogeneously over Guyancourt city (a peri-urban catchment located in the Southwest of Paris). Then, the spatial heterogeneity and the implementation levels of NBS in the NBS scenarios are quantified by a scale-invariance indicator (fractal dimension; DF) across various spatial scales. The X-band radar rainfall data with high space-time resolution was obtained from École des Ponts ParisTech, which is used as the rainfall forcing for numerical modelling experiments. Then, the hydrological responses of the NBS scenarios are simulated by using the fully distributed and physically-based hydrological model (Multi-Hydro) under the selected spatially variable rainfall event. The renormalised maximum probable singularity indicator (RI) is developed based on the UM framework, and it is employed to quantify the hydrological effectiveness in terms of efficiency in runoff reduction of the NBS scenarios. The economic indicator is represented by the life cycle costs (LCC), which are used to estimate the economic costs of NBS scenarios. Finally, the economic dimensions of NBS across various spatial scales are quantified by integrating DF and the LCC of NBS scenarios. The results show that the permeable pavement scenarios 3 and 4 perform better than the other NBS scenarios in mitigating overland flow. The assessment of the economic dimensions of NBS suggests that a higher implementation level of NBS measures in the small-scale range is necessary. The economic dimensions of NBS at the large-scale range vary between 225 m2 and 600 m2. Overall, this study will potentially provide valuable strategies for better managing stormwater runoff in urban catchments and support the decision-making processes of implementing NBS on multiple spatial scales.

Abstract
Sewer sediments contain various hazardous compounds, leading to significant pollution risks when combined sewer overflows (CSOs) occur without appropriate controls. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the issues associated with particles in sewers, specifically focusing on the non-negligible contribution of particulate matter to CSOs, which leads to pollution in urban rivers. Therefore, the sources of particulate matter in sewers, their contributions to the overflow particles, and the specific areas of concern when it comes to managing particulate matter during particle transportation are outlined. Overall, carefully considering the goal of avoiding sedimentation during the drainage system design is the most effective prevention and control method for pipeline sediment, where minimum velocity and minimum shear stress are the core parameters. The establishment of a flexible and adaptive particle simulation method in drainage pipelines requires reliable simulation of particle sedimentation and erosion, the development of sediment prevention facilities with strong adaptability, and a comprehensive evaluation of economic and environmental benefits. With the ongoing enhancement of urbanization in developing countries, such studies will have more practical significance.

Abstract
Efficiently addressing initial rainwater pollution is crucial for mitigating urban water pollution. However, the performance evaluation of initial rainwater pollution control project is rarely introduced. In this study, the architecture of effective comprehensive engineering measures for improving the water quality of initial rainwater in Anhui Province, China, was described. Three water quality indicators, ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and total phosphorus (TP), were selected to explore the severity of urban pollution caused by initial rainwater under various rainfall scenarios. A single-factor evaluation method was used to contrast and assess the benefits of the initial rainfall interception project in terms of water quality enhancement. Results showed that initial rainfall pollution was gentler under light rainfall conditions but more prominent under moderate and heavy conditions. The percentages of NH3-N, COD, and TP in Lotus Pond that met the tertiary drinking water standard were 100%, 74.91%, and 100% with great improvement, and the average concentrations of NH3-N, COD, and TP in Fushan Road Drainage have decreased by 91.43%, 10.49%, and 57.33% respectively, after the construction of the interception project. These indicated that the nitrogen and phosphorus pollution were successfully controlled by the control techniques in both locations, but COD concentration has to be addressed with more specialized strategies. Overall, the water quality improvement project for initial rainwater pollution plays a great role in effectively governing initial rainwater pollution and improving river water quality, and provides an effective technical reference for urban water ecological environment management.

Abstract
With the rapid progress in urbanization, frequent urban waterlogging and non-point source pollution are threatening the living and health of human beings. Sponge city construction has become an effective means to curb urban waterlogging. Although related studies have explored the comprehensive benefits of sponge cities, few studies have been conducted on the effects of different geographical environments on runoff control and suspended solid (SS) removal. Based on 76 cities with sponge cities in China, this study used the meta-analysis method to evaluate the relationships of climate, terrain, underlying surface conditions, and construction area with the increase in the total annual runoff control rate and SS removal rate. The results reveal that the runoff control benefit can be significantly improved by sponge cities under the combined conditions of average annual precipitation of approximately 1000 mm, high fractional vegetation cover, sufficient soil fertility, a terrain slope i of ≤2%, and a permeability coefficient of strata of 100-200 m/d, especially in northern China, where the weight representing the quantity of comprehensive benefits was calculated to be 25.5%. In addition, the study results assist in reforming unfavorable geographical environments in the construction of sponge city, thus providing more effective solutions for tackling SS pollution. The most significant benefits of SS removal were obtained in north central China, where the weight was 21.4%. This study comprehensively investigated the effects of geographical environmental factors on the comprehensive benefits of sponge city reflected by the improvement in the total annual runoff control rate and the SS removal rate. The results will provide guidance for the planning and design of global sponge cities and effectively optimize the practice, scale, and location of existing construction based on specific geographical environments.

Abstract
Studies have shown the usefulness of low impact development (LID) in runoff management in urban areas; however, there is a limited number of systematic decision-making models for ranking LID solutions (i.e., the location and type of LID required). This research proposes a physics-based GIS Multi Criteria Decision Making model (GIS-MCDM), which we refer to as the LID Solution Evaluation and Ranking ApproacH (SERAH). This model integrates the hydrological and socioeconomic-environmental benefits of LID with the subcatchment-level demand of LIDs - this has been traditionally overlooked in previous research. Specifically, SERAH integrates key the contributing criteria, including LID benefits, cost, feasibility, and subcatchment demand to rank LID solutions. To demonstrate the applicability of SERAH, a highly urbanized catchment in Toronto was used as a case-study and three types of LID: rain gardens, infiltration trenches, and porous pavements were considered. The hydrological performance of the ranked solutions was estimated using the stormwater management model, PCSWMM. The resulting LID ranking from SERAH corresponded to the best hydrological performance and LID co-benefits. Runoff volumes were reduced by 8.9-11.3%, and peak runoff values were reduced by 1.3-19.9% compared to the base scenario. The infiltration trench was ranked the highest in 16 of the 19 subcatchments where the cost was identified as a key factor. For the remaining three subcatchments, the rain garden was ranked the highest due to its socioeconomic-environmental benefits outweighing the higher cost. The effect of different rainfall durations, frequencies, and temporal patterns on the performance of the highest-ranked LID solution suggested that LID provide higher performance (runoff volume reduction) in more severe events. SERAH is useful for strategic planning for sustainable infrastructure. Future research is needed to better quantify the socioeconomic and environmental benefits of LID to improve SERAH.

Refining Assignment of Runoff Control Targets with a Landscape Statistical Model: A Case Study in the Beijing Urban Sub-Center, China. WATER 2022.

Abstract
Rapid urbanization has triggered large changes to both the urban landscape and the yield and degree of confluence of runoff. The annual runoff volume control rate (ARVCR) is the key target identified in sponge city overall planning and is based on local natural and social conditions. However, the large impact that landscape patterns have on the runoff process causes the capacity to implement the targets to differ between those patterns. Refinement of ARVCR targets based on landscape pattern indices is therefore needed. This study identified statistical relationships between landscape indices and runoff control targets in the delta pilot region of the Beijing urban sub-center and extended the statistical model to the Beijing urban sub-center, an area almost 20 times larger than the pilot region. Landscape factors were quantified based on their area, shape, and distribution. In the delta pilot region, the runoff control volume for each block was obtained from a simulation using the SWMM model, and the correlation between landscape indices and runoff control volume capacity in different functional land-use blocks was identified by multiple linear stepwise regression. Because the distributions of landscape indices were similar in the pilot delta area and the Beijing urban sub-center, the model could be extended to the much larger study area. The statistical model provided a runoff control scheme that produced a refined assignment of the total annual runoff control target and provided guidance that could be implemented in land-use planning.

Abstract
With the acceleration of urbanization, the proportion of surface imperviousness is increasing continuously in cities, resulting in frequent waterlogging disasters. In this context, storm water management, based on the low-impact development (LID) concept, offers an effective measure for the management of urban storm waters. First, the storm water management model (SWMM) was built for a typical cold climate city (Changchun) in China. Next, the two-stage calibrated model was employed to explore the surface runoff and storm sewer control effects of four LID combination plans. Finally, these plans were put through a "cost-benefit" evaluation through an analytic hierarchy process. According to the results, after using four LID plans, the reduction rates of peak runoff exceeded 40% and the problem of overflow load of the storm sewage was significantly mitigated. The infiltration-oriented Plan I proved to be the optimal plan, with the lowest proportions of the overflow nodes and full-load pipe sections in each return period, as well as with maximum overall performance. This study offers technical and conformed methodological support to cold cities for the prevention and control of waterlogging disasters and recycling of rainwater resources.

Abstract
Urban floods research has been attracting extensive attention with the increasing threat of flood risk and environmental hazards due to global climate change and urbanization. However, there is rarely a comprehensive review of this field and it remains unclear how the research topics on urban floods have evolved. In this study, we analyzed the development of urban floods research and explored the hotspots and frontiers of this field by scientific knowledge mapping. In total, 3314 published articles from 2006 to 2021 were analyzed. The results suggest that the number of published articles in the field of urban floods generally has an upward trend year by year, and the research focus has shifted from exploring hydrological processes to adopting advanced management measures to solve urban flood problems. Moreover, urban stormwater management and low impact development in the context of climate change and urbanization have gradually become research hotspots. Future research directions based on the status and trends of the urban floods field were also discussed. This research can not only inspire other researchers and policymakers, but also demonstrates the effectiveness of scientific knowledge mapping analysis by the use of the software CiteSpace and VOSviewer.
