Removal of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in Synthetic Stormwater Runoff by a Porous Asphalt Pavement System with Modified Zeolite Powder Porous Microsphere as a Filter Column

Porous asphalt pavement (PAP) system is a widely used treatment measure in sustainable stormwater management and groundwater recharge, but their variable performance in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) removal requires further reinforcement prior to widespread uptake. Two laboratory-scale PAP systems...

description Porous asphalt pavement (PAP) system is a widely used treatment measure in sustainable stormwater management and groundwater recharge, but their variable performance in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) removal requires further reinforcement prior to widespread uptake. Two laboratory-scale PAP systems were developed by comparing limestone bedding and zeolite incorporated into modified zeolite powder porous microsphere (MZP-PM) as a filter column under a typical rainfall. The PAP system of zeolite bedding incorporated into MZP-PM (a weight less than 5% of zeolite) removed 74.5% to 90.6% of ammonium (NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>-N) and 72.9% to 92.4% of total phosphate (TP) from the influent, as compared with 25.7% to 62.7% of NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>-N and 32.6% to 56.4% of TP by that of the limestone as bed material.
