Abstract

Abstract Effective treatment of Stormwater by laboratory-scale biofilters has demonstrated that these simple filters may be used to remove dissolved metals and sediment-adsorbed metals found in Stormwater runoff. Laboratory testing indicated that even biofilm just 3 days old provided suspended solids and heavy metals removals in excess of 90%. A filter operated for 9 weeks retained its treatment efficiency and removed more than 90% of total Cu and Zn. Field-scale testing is recommended.
