Infiltration of Storm Water Runoff with Respect to Soil- and Groundwater Protection

  • Chapter
Urban Ecology

Nowadays, managed infiltration of runoff is often practised as an alternative approach to storm water drainage. This kind of infiltration management increases the input of water per infiltration area unit (m2) as well as the volume and the spectrum of substances. When aiming to achieve protection of soil and water it is therefore necessary to question whether, and in which cases, storm water infiltration is sustainable and environmentally sound.
