  2. Hydrodynamic separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrodynamic_separator

    In civil engineering (specifically hydraulic engineering), a hydrodynamic separator (HDS) is a stormwater management device that uses cyclonic separation to control water pollution. They are designed as flow-through structures with a settling or separation unit to remove sediment and other pollutants. [1]

  3. Best management practice for water pollution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Best_management_practice...

    Best management practices (BMPs) is a term used in the United States and Canada to describe a type of water pollution control. Historically the term has referred to auxiliary pollution controls in the fields of industrial wastewater control and municipal sewage control, while in stormwater management (both urban and rural) and wetland ...

  4. Percolation trench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percolation_trench

    Percolation Trench. A percolation trench, also called an infiltration trench, is a type of best management practice (BMP) that is used to manage stormwater runoff, prevent flooding and downstream erosion, and improve water quality in an adjacent river, stream, lake or bay.

  5. Stochastic empirical loading and dilution model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_Empirical...

    [1] [13] [30] [31] Structural BMPs are defined as the components of the drainage pathway between the source of runoff and a stormwater discharge location that affect the volume, timing, or quality of runoff. SELDM uses a simple stochastic statistical model of BMP performance to develop planning-level estimates of runoff-event characteristics.

  6. Tree box filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_box_filter

    A tree box filter is a best management practice (BMP) or stormwater treatment system widely implemented along sidewalks, street curbs, and car parks. They are used to control the volume and amount of urban runoff pollutants entering into local waters, by providing areas where water can collect and naturally infiltrate or seep into the ground ...

  7. Storm Water Management Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storm_Water_Management_Model

    The Storm Water Management Model Climate Adjustment Tool (SWMM-CAT) [10] is a new addition to SWMM5 (December 2014). It is a simple to use software utility that allows future climate change projections to be incorporated into the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM).

  8. Flow control structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_structure

    A flow control structure is a device that alters the flow of water in a stream, drainage channel or pipe. As a group these are passive structures since they operate without intervention under different amounts of water flow and their impact changes based on the quantity of water available.

  9. Bluebelt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluebelt

    The overall goal is to provide the necessary stormwater drainage infrastructure for a 12,000-acre (49 km 2) region on the southern end of the island while at the same time preserving the last freshwater wetlands in New York City. The bluebelt uses a series of carefully placed BMPs at the storm sewer/wetland interface to reduce flooding and ...
