Mostepan O. Еstimation of the influence of polluted storm water runoff from the road surfaces on the environment

The object of research: the process of environmental pollution by storm water runoff. The aim of research: estimation of the influence of storm water runoff from road surfaces for monitoring its volume and improvement of environmental conditions. Research methods and equipment: methods of chemical analysis of the road runoff modelled sample, mathematical methods for hydraulic calculations of storm water runoff handling, measuring equipment for chemical analysis, computer. Theoretical and practical results: methodical guidelines have been worked out, rendering more precise value of existing maximum discharge from the road surfaces. The new approach: determination of treatment feasibility of road storm water runoff up to normative values of water quality deliverable to water bodies and/or to treatment units. Introduction level: results have been used in forming of development complex plans for administrative areas of Kharkiv and Kharkiv Region. Results have been approbated by computations in projects for determination of pollutants maximum permissible discharge with storm water runoff into water bodies. Application field: environment protection, road-exploitation and housing-municipal economy, branches of industry.
