TLDR
Overall, metal retention was aided by the presence of organic matter in the particulate matter, but the pervious concrete itself was more important than particulates for metal retention.About:

Strength, Permeability, and Freeze-Thaw Durability of Pervious Concrete with Different Aggregate Sizes, Porosities, and Water-Binder Ratios
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the strength, permeability, and freeze-thaw durability of pervious concrete with different aggregate sizes, porosities, and water-binder ratios.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laboratory analysis on the surface runoff pollution reduction performance of permeable pavements.
TL;DR: A simple mathematical model was developed to predict the overall performance of the permeable pavement system and a good performance was achieved, illustrating its promising application in the design of permeable pavements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pb removal in pervious concrete filter: Effects of accelerated carbonation and hydraulic retention time
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of accelerated carbonation and hydraulic retention time (HRT) on the lead removal in pervious concrete filter (PCF) were investigated, and it showed that the CO2 uptake by PCF marginally improved the Pb fixation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The biosorption of mercury by permeable pavement biofilms in stormwater attenuation.
TL;DR: Experimental data suggested that a living biofilm developed on a nonwoven polypropylene and polyethylene geotextile can be efficient in the removal of mercury ions from contaminated urban and industrial runoff.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improvement of heavy metal removal from urban runoff using modified pervious concrete.
Pamodithya Wijeyawardana,Nadeeshani Nanayakkara,Chamila Gunasekara,A. K. Karunarathna,David W. Law,Biplob Kumar Pramanik +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the effects of initial concentration, contact time and competing ions on heavy metal removal using porous concrete are discussed and the effect of decalcification, atmospheric carbonation, acid influent and acid-influent on heavy metals removal is reviewed.

Urbanization of aquatic systems : Degradation thresholds, stormwater detection, and the limits of mitigation
Derek B. Booth,C. Rhett Jackson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a variety of physical data from lowland streams in western Washington displays the onset of readily observable aquatic-system degradation at a remarkably consistent level of development, typically about ten percent effective impervious area in a watershed.
