“…Urban stormwater pollutants include gross pollutants, trace metals and nutrients that are associated with sediments, and dissolved pollutants [11]. These accumulated pollutants are not only aesthetically unattractive, but also demonstrate an environmentally threatening and devastating effect on the natural equilibrium, and impede the hydraulic performance of the urban drainage system [12][13][14]. In particular, aquatic fauna is a risk of becoming entangled in or suffocating from, litter ingested in the course of their search for food; while pathogenic organisms or toxins, could interfere with the biota terrestrial ecosystems, resulting in food chains imbalance [15].…”

This study aims to suggest an efficient method for the management of gross pollutants. The local data collected will finally become input to Innovative Gross Pollutant Management Strategies Knowledge Database, which will help engineers or local authorities to manage the GPTs efficiently. Furthermore, the knowledge management portal ensures knowledge sharing and the establishment of knowledge bank for Gross Pollutant under Malaysian condition. The developed gross pollutant management strategies knowledge database is able to assist the client during inspection & maintenance data collection using ArcGIS Collector. The data will be uploaded into the web base ARC GIS Online System, enable better management of gross pollutant traps, in term of inspection & maintenance. The result obtained in this study provides information that can help future decision for GPTs installation and maintenance program. Ultimately, the data obtained will assist the engineers and local authorities to implement appropriate strategies for trapping gross pollutants in an urban area, expand the sources for managing gross pollutants in order to rehabilitate the river system and preparing budget allocation for GPTs operation & maintenance.

Gross pollutants (GPs) in storm water runoff have increased the number of harmful contaminants as a result of complete and incomplete decomposition of organic and non-organic matters. The addition of adsorbents may enhance the performance of GPTs as an on-site treatment. However, there is no complete review reporting the performance of GPTs with adsorbents. Hence, this review presents the preliminary process of GPTs installation, performance of GPTs in dissolved pollutants removal as well as the potential of zeolite and chitosan as adsorbent media within GPTs.
