Persulfate activation by biochar for trace organic contaminant removal from urban stormwater

Yiling Zhuang; Stefan B. Haderlein; Holger V. Lutze; Chen Sun; Friedrich Fink; Andrea Paul; Stephanie Spahr

We show that biochar can activate peroxydisulfate to eliminate widespread persistent and mobile organic contaminants from urban stormwater. Our laboratory-based investigation provides the basis for future studies towards the practical implementation of biochar and peroxydisulfate for stormwater treatment.

Storage Dynamics and Groundwater–Surface Water Interactions in a Drought Sensitive Lowland Catchment: Process-Based Modelling as a Learning Tool

Zhengtao Ying; Doerthe Tetzlaff; Jean-Christophe Comte; Songjun Wu; Chris Soulsby

The authors simulated seasonal and long-term changes in the spatio-temporal patterns of water storage dynamics and groundwater–surface water interactions in lowland tributary of the Spree catchment. After several major droughts, groundwater stores are depleted and stream flows intermittent. This shows the importance of integrated land and water management in NE Germany.

The Unexploited Treasures of Hydrological Observations Beyond Streamflow for Catchment Modeling

Other hydrological data than streamflow have the potential to improve process consistency in hydrological modeling and consequently for predictions under change. The authors review how storage and flux variables are used for model evaluation and calibration; improving process representation.

Biogenic polyphosphate as relevant regulator of seasonal phosphate storage in surface sediments of stratified eutrophic lakes

Lucas Schröder; Peter Schmieder; Michael Hupfer

Using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the authors studied the polyphosphate seasonality in the topmost sediment layer of three stratified lakes with prolonged anoxic periods during summer stratification. Polyphosphate acted as a temporary phosphorus storage, formed at the beginning of the summer stratification under oxic conditions and released time delayed under anoxic conditions.
