In order to cope with urban flooding, water scarcity and rainfall-runoff pollution comprehensively, a conceptual tank model of urban storm water system is proposed. Tank model is a multi-layer, multi-objective model, so design of urban storm water system is more complex than that of urban storm sewer system. Some principles of design of urban storm water system are discussed, such as Low Impact Development, Smart storm water management, and so on.

Receiving Water

From 1985 to 1987, effects of sewer discharges on communities of phyto- and Zooplankton in receiving waters have been studied. Locations all over The Netherlands have been selected. The results were related to the type of sewer system, the discharges and the characteristics of the receiving water. Results were compared with those from samples taken from a corresponding water not influenced by sewer discharges, the reference water. Often either phyto- or Zooplankton communities could be used succesfully to describe the short-and medium-term effects of the discharges on the quality of the involved habitats. Plankton communities could also indicate permanent effects due to higher saprobic levels in the receiving water compared to the reference water: an obvious result of urban storm water discharges. In small and medium-sized stagnant waters, particularly in the immediate vicinity of the overflows, effects on plankton communities were more pronounced compared to large and running waters. Combined sewer system overflows (CSO) often proved to affect plankton communities more severely than separate sewer system discharges (SSD), except for some locations in industrial areas.

Foul Water

A major drawback of separate sewer systems is the occurrence of illicit connections: unintended sewer cross-connections that connect foul water outlets from residential or industrial premises to the storm water system and/or storm water outlets to the foul sewer system. The amount of unwanted storm water in foul sewer systems can be significant, resulting in a number of detrimental effects on the performance of the wastewater system. Efficient removal of storm water inflows into foul sewers requires knowledge of the exact locations of the inflows. This paper presents the use of distributed temperature sensing (DTS) monitoring data to localize illicit storm water inflows into foul sewer systems. Data results from two monitoring campaigns in foul sewer systems in the Netherlands and Germany are presented. For both areas a number of storm water inflow locations can be derived from the data. Storm water inflow can only be detected as long as the temperature of this inflow differs from the in-sewer temperatures prior to the event. Also, the in-sewer propagation of storm and wastewater can be monitored, enabling a detailed view on advection.
