The European D4RUNOFF project aims to tackle this challenge by developing a knowledge driven approach.
More specifically, the project will develop:
1. Novel detection methods for runoff pollutants
characterisation
2. Novel sensors for identifying and monitoring of CECs, as
well as new pollutants to obtain a deeper understanding of the
pollution aspects linked to urban runoff and their actual impact
on the environment.
The knowledge gained in this field will serve to build:
1. a multi-criteria methodology for the design of cost-effective mitigation hybrid solutions combining new and existing NBS and water infrastructures (i.e blue-green-grey solutions)
2. an AI-assisted management platform to support water management stakeholders (i.e.; water utilities, public authorities) in the planning, operation and risk monitoring of the urban infrastructures for the design of effective strategies to cope and mitigate urban runoff events.
