Abstract

Nutrients in stormwater runoff have raised concerns regarding water quality degradation in the recent years. Low impact development (LID) technologies are types of nature-based solutions developed to address water quality problems and restore the predevelopment hydrology of a catchment area. Two LID facilities, infiltration trench (IT) and infiltration planter (IP), are known for their high removal rate of nutrients through sedimentation and vegetation. Long-term monitoring was conducted to assess the performance and cite the advantages and disadvantages of utilizing the facilities in nutrient removal. Since a strong ionic bond exists between phosphorus compounds and sediments, reduction of total phosphorus (TP) (more than 76%), in both facilities was associated to the removal of total suspended solids (TSS) (more than 84%). The efficiency of nitrogen in IP is 28% higher than IT. Effective nitrification occurred in IT and particulate forms of nitrogen were removed through sedimentation and media filters. Decrease in ammonium- nitrogen (NH4-N) and nitrite-nitrogen (NO2-N), and increase in nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N) fraction forms indicated that effective nitrification and denitrification occurred in IP. Hydrologic factors such as rainfall depth and rainfall intensity affected nutrient treatment capabilities of urban stormwater LID facilities The greatest monitored rainfall intensity of 11 mm/hr for IT yielded to 34% and 55% removal efficiencies for TN and TP, respectively, whereas, low rainfall intensities below 5 mm resulted to 100 % removal efficiency. The greatest monitored rainfall intensity for IP was 27 mm/hr, which still resulted to high removal efficiencies of 98% and 97% for TN and TP, respectively. Water quality assessment showed that both facilities were effective in reducing the amount of nutrients; however, IP was found to be more efficient than IT due to its additional provisions for plant uptake and larger storage volume.

최근 강우시 수계로 유출되는 비점오염물질로 인한 수질오염의 문제를 해결하고자 저영향개발(Low Impact development, LID)을 적용하고 있다. LID 시설 중 침투도랑 (Infiltration trench, IT) 과 침투화분 (Infiltration Planter, IP) 은 높은 침투율 및 침강지를 통한 오염물질 제거와 식생을 통한 영양염류 저감효율이 높다. 따라서 본 과제에서는 장기간 모니터링을 통한 침투도랑(IT)과 침투화분(IP)의 영양염류 오염물질 제거효율에 대해 분석하였다. 침투도랑(IT)과 침투화분(IP) 두 시설 모두 TSS 약 84%, TP 약 76%이상으로 제거효율이 높은것으로 나타났는데 이는 인의 화합물과 퇴적물간의 이온교환으로 인한 것으로 나타났다. 질소의 경우 침투화분시설(IP)의 제거효율이 침투도랑(IT)에 비해 약 28% 높은것으로 분석되었다. 이는 침투도랑(IT) 내 여재와 침강지에서의 침전을 통한 입자성 질소를 제거하는데 효과적이었으며, 암모늄질소(NH4-N)와 아질산염 질소(NO2-N)의 감소 및 질소(NO3-N)의 증가는 질산화 및 탈질산화로 인한것으로 나타났다. 침투도랑(IT 모니터링 이벤트 중 강우강도가 11mm/hr로 강한 강우사상에서의 TN 및 TP의 저감효율은 각 34% 및 55%로 저감효율이 낮았으나, 5mm이하의 강우강도에서의 저감효율은 약 100%로 높은것으로 분석됬다. 반면 침투화분시설(IP)은 최대 강우강도 27mm/hr에서도 TN 및 TP의 저감효율은 97%이상으로 높은것으로 나타났다. 두 시설 모두 영양염류의 제거효율은 좋은것으로 나타났으나, 시설용량 및 HRT가 높고 시설 내 식생이 적용된 침투화분시설(IP)이 영양염류 제거효율이 더 높은것으로 분석되었다.
