Lecture: New storm water treatment
Lecture on the current topic:
„Performance and testing of decentralized stormwater treatment systems“
The progressive sealing of land and anthropogenic contamination require solutions in the field of stormwater treatment. Nearby treatment and infiltration help to relieve hydraulically stressed drainage systems, contribute to the restoration of the natural water balance and take targeted action at the point of pollution. Decentralized stormwater treatment plants can offer an alternative.
In Germany, but also in other countries, requirements are already being placed on these systems and they are being tested under laboratory conditions. The presentation shows the current problems, gives an overview of the different treatment systems and their possible applications, and presents the test requirements and the tests itself.
Speaker: Daniela Schmitz, Time: 09.02.2022 at 10:00 a.m., Language: English
Duration: Max. approx. 30 minutes each + 10 minutes questions / discussion / feedback
