Abstract
The frequent occurrence of sewer flooding and the intermittent discharge of non-point pollutions into the receiving water body are emerging issues recently due to the climate change and urbanization. These problems might be solved by introducing a multifunctional storage facility. Unlike a single-purpose storage facility, a multi-purpose storage facility should be operated at an instant to meet for flood prevention, reduction of non-point pollution and/or rainwater reuse. Considering various operational combinations it is suggested that prevention of sewer flooding coupled with reduction of non-point pollution is the most effective operational strategy for a multi-functional storage facility.
