The research project ‘Real Time Control of a Combined Sewer System by Radar estimates of Precipitation’ seeks to improve the water quality of a stream by reducing quantitative and qualitative discharges of combined sewage overflow (CSO). The complex monitoring and simulation system that has been set up for control purposes is described. Two advanced real time control (ARTC) strategies have been developed. First a pollution based real time control (PBRTC) strategy, and second a water quality based real time control (WQBRTC) strategy. The PBRTC strategy is already implemented, the WQBRTC strategy will be implemented during the course of the project. For the PBRTC an off-line analysis is presented to show the effectiveness of the strategy.

This paper aims at comparing the cost-effectiveness of the two main types of urban drainage systems, that is, the combined sewer system and the separate sewer system, based on the analysis of simulations. The problem of which of the two systems is better was heavily discussed over the years and the answer given to the question was usually: ‘it depends’. In this work, specific impacts are investigated in terms of a cause–effect analysis. The results are subsequently summarized and can help in the choice of the system to be implemented. Despite earlier reasoning, studies on river water quality strongly indicate that the separate system is not always the preferable solution because the polluted runoff from the street, containing e.g. different heavy metals, is discharged directly into the river. This analysis aims to compare the two different sewer systems on the basis of literature data and simulation of specific cases. The results are evaluated, as suggested in the EU-Water Framework Directive, on the basis of different assessment criteria: river water quality and morphology impacts, emissions and costs.

The surface water system of Amsterdam is very complicated. Of two characteristic types of water systems the influences on water and sediment quality are investigated. The importance of the sewer output to the total loads is different for both water systems. In a polder the load from the sewers is much more important than in the canal basin. Measures to reduce the emission from the sewers are much more effective in a polder. The effect of these measures on sediment quality is more than the effect on water quality. Some differences between a combined sewer system and a separate sewer system can be found in sediment quality.
