→Bioretention
This study evaluates a proprietary bioretention filtration system (Filterra®) that treats stormwater runoff from impervious surface areas over 100 times larger than the footprint of the facility. The space efficient unit is designed to be installed as part of a traditional curb and gutter road right of way design and is well suited to retrofit applications. Read more about this new proprietary filtration system and see how it performed at the Kortright Centre in Vaughan, ON., by clicking above.

This study compares the performance of nine different [[Bioretention]] facilities monitored by Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) and Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) in the Greater Toronto Area. The monitored facilities of varying shape, size and design were constructed to manage runoff from parking lots, public roads and residential areas. Key performance variables assessed included peak flows, runoff volume, water quality, water temperature and functional characteristics. To learn more about the results and differences amongst the 9 facilities when it comes to volume and load reductions and water quality and quantity control, click the button above.
