Improving the performance of stormwater detention basins by real-time control using rainfall forecasts
Dry detention ponds are commonly implemented to mitigate the impacts of urban runoff on receiving water bodies. They currently rely on static control through a fixed limitation of their maximum outflow rate. Real-Time Control (RTC) allows optimizing their performance by manipulation of an outlet valve. This study developed several enhanced RTC scenarios of a dry detention pond located at the outlet of a small urban catchment near Québec City, Canada. The catchment's runoff quantity and TSS concentration were simulated by a SWMM5 model with an improved wash-off formulation. The control procedures rely on rainfall detection, on measures of the pond's water height, and in some of the RTC scenarios on rainfall forecasts. The implemented RTC strategies allow a substantial improvement of the pond's performance - the TSS removal efficiency increases from 46% (current state) to about 90% - while remaining safe and taking a mosquito-breeding risk constraint into account.
