SEWER SEDIMENTS - CHARACTERISTICS AND CONTROL IN ARID AREAS

![Page 3: Sewer sediment halcrow apr08](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050816/54b5704d4a79590f2c8b4606/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
OBJECTIVES
Discuss the sources and characteristics of sewer sediments in arid and semiarid climates.
Recommend a method to predict the transportation and deposition of sediments under the effect of flash floods in arid and semiarid climates.
Discuss the feasible control methods that can prevent (or reduce) sewer-sediment accumulations in arid and semiarid climates.

MAIN PROBLEMS OF DESIGN (developing arid and semiarid catchments)
Scarcity of reliable data High variability of climatic factors (rainfall, temperature,
humidity,…, etc.) Existence of heavy duststorms Traditional method of design oversizes sewers’
diameters to convey many times the anticipated peak flowrates and to accommodate accumulated deposits (This leads to failure of maintaining setteable solids in suspension).

MAIN PROBLEMS OF OPERATIONS (developing arid and semiarid catchments)
Maintenance and management schemes (including cultural and socioeconomic schemes)
Highly polluted first-flush phenomenon of overflow event.
Blockage of sewer by sediment accumulation.

Transport of Sewer Sediments
• Bedload TransportComposed of relatively heavy particles; move near the sewer bottom;
travel by rolling, sliding, or saltating along the pipe invert (or deposited bed). Its rate is a function of shear velocity, particle size, density of
water, hydraulic radius of flow, and energy slope.
• Suspended-Load TransportFine lighter particles that have at one time been deposited and have
subsequently been swept from the bed load into the overlaying flow. Its travel is in suspension and is primary influenced by turbulent fluctuations
in the flow, which in turn are influenced by bed shear. Its rate is computed by integrating relationships identifying the concentration of suspended
sediments at various depths of sewer.
• Washload TransportParticles inter the pipe at its upstream junction and remained in suspension
under certain flow conditions but may settle when the flow conditions change. Critical conditions are identified in literature.

Traditional Method of DesignPreliminary investigation
To evaluate the feasibility of a project and to justify bond issues, assessments against property, or other methods of fund raising.
Preliminary designs are based on estimated flows, approximate ground contours, the location of the streets or sewer easement, and the location or
locations to which the sewage is to be taken.
Design principles
Detailed maps (or aerial photography) are used.
Flows are assumed STEADY and SEDIMENT free.
Flow velocities are high enough to keep solids in suspension (at least 0.60 m/s; normally 0.75 – 2.50 m/s).
A vertical profile is prepared for each sewer line at a horizontal scale of 1:500 to 1:1000 and a vertical scale about 10 times greater.

Self-Cleansing & the Limit of Deposition Method of Design
Sewer sediments may be defined as any settable materials found in water sewage, which is able to form bed deposits in the sewerage system.
The design is based on specifying a minimum “self-cleansing” flow velocity that should be achieved at a particular depth of flow (or with a particular
frequency of occurence).
• EntrainmentWhen the hydrodynamic lift and drag forces on the bed particles exceed the restoring forces of sediment
submerged weight, interlocking, and cohesion (if present) entrainment occurs, resulting in movement of the particles.
• TransportEntrained sediments travel in suspension or as a bed load. Finer lighter material tends to travel in suspension,
whereas heavier material travels as bedload.
• DepositionIf the flow velocity and/or turbulence level decreases transport of suspended sediment and/or bed load will cease,
and deposition of particles occurs.
Practically:A single value of minimum velocity, unrelated to the characteristics of the
sediment and other hydraulic behavior of the sewers, does not properly represent the ability of sewer flows to transport sediment.

Recommended Method of Design in Arid and Semiarid Climates
• Consideration of the large amounts of transported sediments• Consideration of shortage of data• Consideration of the high variability of rainfall, temperature…etc
(characteristics of arid climates)• Consideration of the local management and operation
constraints

Flood Estimate by Extension of Short Record (3-10 yrs):
1. Extract maximum flows at the short term station
2. Extract maximum flows at nearby long term station
3. Normalize data (take the logarithms)
4. Derive regression equations for the short term
station using long term station “s”5. The regression equations are used to extend
the short term record.
Relative Information is defined as the variance
of the record estimate divided by the variance of the
estimate based on the extended records.
When this is greater than unity it is worth extending
the series.

CONCLUSIONSCONCLUSIONS
Suspended sediment concentrations in the stormwater runoff of arid residential catchments are significantly affected by the characteristics of both stormwater runoff and duststorms over the catchments. Thus, stormwaters runoff and duststorms are recommended to be considered for proper prediction of the sediments in the stormwater runoff.
The concentrations of heavy metals in the stormwater runoff in arid catchments vary with variations in the concentrations of transported
suspended sediments. Thus, the developed regression equations relating these types of concentrations are recommended to be used by scientists
and engineers.
The concentrations of transported suspended sediment and those of heavy metals in the runoff of the investigated arid catchments vary with the
variations in the particle size of transported sediment. Thus, identification of the transported suspended sediment particle size range is of importance
for accurate prediction of the concentrations in the runoff.

CONCLUSIONSCONCLUSIONS The developed regression equations for the prediction of both concentrations of
transported suspended sediment and those of heavy metals in the stormwater runoff of the investigated catchments with considerations of particle sizes of transported suspended sediment are more accurate than those developed without considerations of the sediment sizes. Thus, the equations which consider the particle sizes of transported suspended sediment are recommended, if possible, to be used for the prediction of the concentrations of suspended sediment and heavy metals in the stormwater runoff of the investigated arid residential catchments
Transported sediments in arid and semiarid areas are influenced by rainstorm and duststorm as well as by catchment characteristics.
Suspended, bedload as well as wash load transport loads from arid and semiarid catchments may be predicted by a simple regression type relationships.
Increase of sewer slope increases the removal of deposited solids
The removal volume of deposited solids by increasing the sewer slope varies with the shape of sewer cross section.
Sewer flushing is an effective way to increase the removal volume of deposited solids
An optimization methodology could be applied for the sewer slope, sewer shape of cross section, and interval of sewer flushing in order to identify the conditions of feasible maximum removal of deposited solids.
The removal of deposited solids from the sewer system should be integrated with a management scheme to reduce solids from source, and with treatment of facilities
