Water Quality Improvement Performance of Geotextiles Within Permeable Pavement Systems: A Critical Review

Abstract: Sustainable drainage systems (SuDS; or best management practices) are increasingly being used as ecological engineering techniques to prevent the contamination of receiving watercourses and groundwater. Permeable paving is a SuDS technique, which is commonplace in car parks, driveways and minor roads where one of their functions is to improve the quality of urban runoff. However, little is known about the water quality benefits of incorporating an upper geotextile within the paving structure. The review focuse… Show more

“…The difference in Pb 2+ removal efficiencies between the PA systems containing a non-woven geotextile and those of a woven geotextile is a reflection of the suggestion that various types of geotextile membranes used in PA systems can directly affect the system removal capacity of Pb 2+ . Cook and Scholz note in their studies [4,33] that non-woven geotextile is the preferred geotextile type for permeable paving applications because of its better filtration and separation properties than woven geotextile. But no specific experimental data is presented for its removal capacity of heavy metals from stormwater or aqueous solutions.…”

“…In particular, stormwater runoff generated by an urban impervious surface has been regarded as an important contributor to the degradation of receiving aquatic systems because it carries contaminants accumulating between storm events in the urban environment. These pollutants include suspended solids, organic matter, nutrients, heavy metals, oils and even polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) [3,4]. To mitigate these negative effects, and potentially start using stormwater as a resource instead of a waste product, low impact development (LID) options such as permeable pavement systems (PPS), are seeing an increase in implementation in low-traffic areas in place of impermeable surfaces [5][6][7].…”

“…According to Khastagir and Jayasuriya [8], in Melbourne, Australia, the use of rainwater for domestic purposes has become increasingly popular since the city faced severe drought for twelve consecutive years, with annual rainfall below average. However, stormwater collected from paved roads may contain high amounts of pollutants [28]. Roads can be considered sources of various pollutants (suspended solids, heavy metals, hydrocarbons).…”

“…Geosynthetics are modern engineering materials, which have been widely used in soil structures for reinforcing, separation, filtration, and drainage [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. The main functions of geotextile filters are to prevent the movement of fine particles from the base soil and to avoid the development of excessive pore water pressure on the soil-geotextile filter interface.…”
