Abstract

- Copper is a common roofing material used in urban environments, yet it poses a threat to the ecosystem. Space requirements for stormwater treatment in urban areas are often problematic. This study investigated the treatment efficiency of a filter system containing zeolite as filter medium and treatment of copper roof runoff in field conditions. Emphasis was placed on copper and zinc treatment, while the release of sodium and aluminium was also evaluated. The filter system was monitored over a period of 16 months (7 sampling events). The filter reduced the total and dissolved copper by 52–82% and 48–85%, respectively. Although the average observed treatment efficiency of copper and zinc was high, considerable decline in filter efficiency was noticed, indicating potential saturation of the filter medium. Moreover, the copper concentrations in the outlet were still high, 350–600 μg/l, and significantly higher than the concentrations recommended by the relevant authorities.
