A computational platform for integrated modelling of micropollution in the urban environment

Luca Rossi, David Andrew Barry, Timothée Noé Pouchon, Sylvain Coutu

Anthropogenic chemical contaminants are found routinely in our water resources. Although most of these compounds are usually present at low concentrations, they are of concern due to their ecotoxicity, antibacterial resistance and potential harm to human h ...

Treatment of micropollutants in municipal wastewater: Ozone or powdered activated carbon?

Luca Rossi, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Jonas Margot, Anoys Magnet, David Andrew Barry

Many organic micropollutants present in wastewater, such as pharmaceuticals and pesticides, are poorly removed in conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). To reduce the release of these substances into the aquatic environment, advanced wastewater ...

Temporal variability of antibiotics fluxes in wastewater and contribution from hospitals

Luca Rossi, David Andrew Barry, Sylvain Coutu

Significant quantities of antibiotics are used in all parts of the globe to treat diseases with bacterial origins. After ingestion, antibiotics are excreted by the patient and transmitted in due course to the aquatic environment. This study examined tempor ...

Modelling city-scale facade leaching of biocide by rainfall

Luca Rossi, Chiara Rota, David Andrew Barry, Sylvain Coutu

A methodology is presented for estimating, at the city scale, the amount of biocide released from facades during rain events. The methodology consists of two elements. First, leaching of a single facade is simulated using a two-region model, one region for ...

Methodology to account for uncertainties and tradeoffs in pharmaceutical environmental hazard assessment

Luca Rossi, David Andrew Barry, Sylvain Coutu

Many pharmaceutical products find their way into receiving waters, giving rise to concerns regarding their environmental impact. A procedure was proposed that enables ranking of the hazard to aquatic species and human health due to such products. In the pr ...

Modelling wind-driven rain on buildings in urbanized area using 3-D GIS and LiDAR datasets

Luca Rossi, François Golay, Claudio Magalhaes Carneiro, Pauline Emery, Sylvain Coutu, Vera Wyrsch

This study investigated the distribution of the fraction of rainfall intercepted by the facades of buildings located in an urbanized area. We used the frequently used semi-empirical standard ISO-15927-3 to simulate Wind-Driven Rain on facades. The implemen ...

Parsimonious hydrological modeling of urban sewer and river catchments

Luca Rossi, David Andrew Barry, Sylvain Coutu, Dario Del Giudice

A parsimonious model of flow capable of simulating flow in natural/engineered catchments and at WWTP (Wastewater Treatment Plant) inlets was developed. The model considers three interacting, dynamic storages that account for transfer of water within the sy ...

Modeling of facade leaching in urban catchments

Luca Rossi, David Andrew Barry, Sylvain Coutu, Dario Del Giudice

Building facades are protected from microbial attack by incorporation of biocides within them. Flow over facades leaches these biocides and transports them to the urban environment. A parsimonious water quantity/quality model applicable for engineered urba ...

Parsimonious hydrological modelling in urban areas: Towards integrated modelling

Luca Rossi, David Andrew Barry, Sylvain Coutu, Dario Del Giudice

Most popular urban hydrological model used in research and engineering (e.g. MOUSE, SWMM, MUSIC,P8) are spatially distributed with linknode drainage network. If some of them (e.g. PURPS, RUNQUAL, SLAMM, StormTac and WBM) treat the catchment in a lumped fas ...

Surveillance de la qualité des sédiments en Suisse - État actuel des méthodes disponibles et mise en place de recommandations

Nathalie Chèvre Rossi, Luca Rossi, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Sophie Campiche, Benoît Jean Dominique Ferrari

Le sédiment constitue un compartiment dynamique et essentiel dans les écosystèmes aquatiques.Il joue un rôle important pour de nombreux animaux et végétaux en tant qu’habitat ou site de ponte. Cependant, il présente la caractéristique d’adsorber des pollua ...

Samplinghelper a web-based tool to assess the reliability of sampling strategies in sewers and receiving waters

Nathalie Chèvre Rossi, Luca Rossi, David Andrew Barry

Sampling is a key step in the analysis of chemical compounds. It is particularly important in the environmental field, for example for wastewater effluents, wet-weather discharges or streams in which the flows and concentrations vary greatly over time. In ...

Substance flow analysis as a tool for urban water management

Nathalie Chèvre Rossi, Luca Rossi

Human activity results in the production of a wide range of pollutants that can enter the water cycle through stormwater or wastewater. Among others, heavy metals are still detected in high concentrations around urban areas and their impact on aquatic orga ...

Flow measurements in sewer systems based on image analysis: automatic flow velocity algorithm

Luca Rossi, Daniel Sage, Laurent Son Nguyen, Salim Kayal, David Jeanbourquin, David Andrew Barry

Discharges of combined sewer overflows (CSOs) and stormwater are recognized as an important source of environmental contamination. However, the harsh sewer environment and particular hydraulic conditions during rain events reduce the reliability of traditi ...

Design methodology accounting for the effects of porous medium heterogeneity on hydraulic residence time and biodegradation in horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetlands

Luca Rossi, David Andrew Barry, Alessandro Brovelli, Otoniel Carranza Diaz

Horizontal flow constructed wetlands are engineered systems capable of eliminating a wide range of pollutants from the aquatic environment. Nevertheless, poor hydrodynamic behavior is commonly found resulting in preferential pathways and variations in both ...

Performance Analysis of a Hybrid Incremental and Cyclic A/D Conversion Principle

Luca Rossi, Steve Tanner, Pierre-André Farine

This paper presents a new hybrid A/D conversion principle based on the combination of an incremental conversion for the most significant part of the result and on a cyclic conversion for the least significant part. The proposed approach exhibits a resoluti ...
