Addressing the research needs for the sustainable application of TDA in stormwater infiltration/treatment

Status: Active
Project Start Date: 06/03/2022

Summary:

A recent investigation by the PI’s team on the applicability of two inch TDA for stormwater treatment has shown good phosphate retention, but with substantial leaching of zinc and some copper. The overall objective of this proposal is to develop a system of media that will utilize the phosphate retaining characteristic of TDA while reducing zinc and copper release.
