This book discusses the physicochemical changes (transformations)
that metals deposited on urban road surfaces undergo during dry
weather periods, in order to provide insights into their potential
impacts on stormwater quality. Based on extensive field
experiments, and laboratory and data analyses, it examines
transformation characteristics of metals with respect to the
particle size of road dust, antecedent dry days and land uses.
Further, it proposes a new risk-assessment methodology, improving
the original human health-risk indices based on the transformation
characteristics and potential bioavailability of metals in order to
evaluate the risks posed by metals in stormwater. This book is of
interest to researchers and decision-makers developing appropriate
pollution mitigation measures to enhance the quality of stormwater,
targeting the effective reuse of stormwater in urban areas.
