First flush stormwater treatment - IRIDRA's solutions
For the treatment of first flush runoff, IRIDRA proposes the following technical solutions
Classical constructed wetlands
- Constructed wetlands with horizontal subsurface flow (HF)
- Constructed wetlands with vertical subsurface flow (VF)
- Constructed wetlands with free water surface (FWS)
- Hybrid constructed wetlands (HF + FWS, VF + FWS)
Intensified constructed wetlands (Constructed wetlands 2.0)
Sustainable Drainage Systems(SuDS)
- Ponds
- Rain garden
- Bioretention systems
IRIDRA's experience
Among the most representative examples of IRIDRA's experience in this field are following reported.
