Combining Ponds & Filtration to Achieve Enhanced Water Quality
Date: 13th March (USA) | 14th February (AUS)
Time: 1PM Mountain Time USA | 7AM AEDT
Presented by: Jamie McCutchen, President, Rymar Waterworks Innovations
Level: Intermediate
Duration: 1 hour
Type of Course: Webinar - Live
Detention ponds are the most common Stormwater Management BMP and are often the primary method to provide post-construction water quality for new development. Although widely accepted, there are many flaws with the traditional "first-flush" design methodology. These include limited treatment for smaller storm events and requiring pond size to be larger than necessary. This presentation will introduce a new methodology to incorporate filtration with stormwater basins and explain how it can result in treatment of more of the annual rainfall, higher TSS removal efficiency and do so with smaller basins.
Learning Objective:
1️⃣Understand flaws with current design methodology for stormwater basins
2️⃣ Introduce the concept of using filtration in place of the traditional first-flush method
3️⃣Understand the benefits of the new technology, including treatment of more of the annual rainfall.
