Investigating the use of recycled organic and mineral waste as reactive filter media for improving stormwater quality Research Partner: Star Water
This study involved a series of simple batch tests, column tests and laboratory analysis that highlight the performance of recycled organic and mineral material in removing nutrients and metals from a polluted water. The aims of the study were to:
evaluate a range of raw recycled organic and mineral materials as potential Reactive Filter Media (RFM), and;
to gain preliminary data to assist future model development and creation of design specifications.
