The use of nature-based solutions (NBSs) for hazard mitigation is increasing. In this study, we review the NBSs flood using a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis framework commonly used NBSs. Approaches reviewed include retention detention systems, bioretention landcover soil management, river naturalisation floodplain constructed natural wetlands. Existing tools identification quantification direct benefits co-benefits are then reviewed. Finally, approaches to modelling discussed, including type model parameterisation. After outlining knowledge gaps within current literature research, roadmap development, modelling, implementation presented.

In recent years, increasing attention has been given for reclamation and reuse of water (wastewater stormwater) in the context augmenting supplies. Constructed wetland (CW) systems make use natural substrates, plants, microbes decontamination wastewater stormwater. These nature-based treatment are cost-effective sustainable. This review critically analyzes advances on application CW removal total suspended solids (TSS), various chemical (nutrients including nitrogen phosphorus, heavy metals, organics) microbial pollutants ( Escherichia coli , enterococci, fecal coliforms, etc.) Furthermore, influence key factors configurations, vegetation, ambient temperature/seasonal changes, oxygen levels hydraulic retention time performance discussed. Insights into pollutant mechanisms, diversity modeling (kinetics, hydrological mechanistic) provided. show good diverse from The mechanisms include physical (sedimentation filtration), (sorption, complexation precipitation) biological (biodegradation, transformation microbial/plant assimilation) processes. dominant communities enriched nitrifiers, denitrifiers organic biodegraders. knowledge gaps development multifunctional highlighted. We believe that this critical would help urban planners, environmental engineers managers with implementation innovative strategies stormwater to alleviate stress areas contribute sustainability. Moreover, optimize as well develop regulatory guidelines installation, operation maintenance systems.

Bioretention cells (BRCs) are a promising low-impact development (LID) practice that commonly used in urban settings to improve the water quality and mitigate hydrological effects of stormwater runoff. BRCs have been subject extensive research order better comprehend their function effectiveness. However, BRC performance differs greatly among regions terms hydrologic enhancement. Due this variance effectiveness, current study conducted comprehensive systematic review answer question, “Are an effective LID method for catchment management?”. This analyzed effectiveness mitigating impacts enhancing runoff catchments. A 114 field, laboratory, modeling studies on found may be one most successful approaches restore hydrology cycle quality. With further BRCs, quantity will become more reliable, helping develop long-term solutions drainage issues. At end review, knowledge gaps future prospects presented. In addition providing foundational grasp BRC, outlines key design recommendations implementation address issues raised by certain errors.

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have been widely recognized as state-of-the-art in environment remediation because of their exceptional performance, 100% metal atomic utilization, almost no secondary pollution, and robust structures. Most recently, the activation persulfate with carbon-based SACs advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) raises tremendous interest degradation emerging contaminants wastewater, owning to its efficient versatile reactive oxidant species (ROS) generation. However, comprehensive critical review unraveling underlying relationship between structures corresponding generated ROS is still rare. Herein, we systematically summarize fundamental understandings intrinsic mechanisms single atom active sites produced during AOPs. The types are firstly elaborated, presenting prior pollutants that need be degraded. Then, preparation characterization methods overviewed. material structure–ROS type persulfate-based AOPs discussed depth expound catalytic mechanisms. Finally, briefly conclude current development propose prospects for rational design synthesis on-demand performances future research.

Untreated stormwater is a major source of microplastics, organic pollutants, metals, and nutrients in urban water courses. The aim this study was to improve the knowledge about start-up periods bioretention filters. A rain garden pilot facility with 13 filters constructed from highway adjacent impervious surfaces used for irrigation ∼12 weeks. Selected plants (Armeria maritima, Hippophae rhamnoides, Juncus effusus, Festuca rubra) planted ten Stormwater percolated through containing waste-to-energy bottom ash, biochar, or Sphagnum peat, mixed sandy loam. Influent effluent samples were taken evaluate removal above-mentioned pollutants. All efficiently removed microplastics >10 µm, most metals. Copper leached all initially but significantly reduced biochar at end period, while other showed declining trend. initially, concentrations decreased over time, had nitrogen after few To conclude, effectively pollutants during period. Before being recommended full-scale applications, functionality longer period operation should be evaluated.
