Abstract |
Combined sewer overflows, storm water discharges, and surface waters in the Des Moines, Iowa Metropolitan Area were sampled for 12 months to determine their pollutional characteristics. Various systems of separation and collection and treatment of combined sewer overflow and storm water discharges were designed, estimated and evaluated. Analyses were made of the data collected and of the various system problems encountered. The studies indicate 174,500 pounds of BOD are discharged annually from a 4,000 acre combined sewer drainage area, and 2,668,000 pounds of BOD from 45,000 acres served by separate storm sewers. |

Combined sewer overflows, storm water discharges, and surface waters in the Des Moines, Ioway Metropolitan Area were sampled for 12 months to determine their pollutional characteristics. Various systems of separation and collection and treatment of combined sewer overlow and storm water discharges were designed, estimated and evaluated. Analyses were made of the data collected and of the various sytem problems encountered. |
