| Sediment removal efficiencies for ISO 14034 verified OGS. '''Group 1''' units (n=10) are conventional OGS with large openings. '''Group 2''' units (n=2) contain additional components that filter or strain flows. Sediment removal performance results were relatively consistent across different MTD designs, with slightly more variation at higher surface loading rates (see Graph below). <br> | | Sediment removal efficiencies for ISO 14034 verified OGS.
