Method for optimizing volume-flow parameters of airport surface runoff treatment facilities
Summary
Presented in the paper are the main provisions of developing a method for the optimization calculation of volume-flow parameters of surface runoff treatment facilities of the Russian airports, that belong to the category II of industrial facilities in terms of their negative impact on the environment. It is shown that using the proposed method with account of the period of de-icing of the aircrafts and airport territory provides for further reducing the design capacity of the treatment facilities by 1.7–2.45 times and the accumulation tank capacity by 1.2–2.1 times. At the same time, capital and operating costs are reduced with full compliance with the basic requirements of the current design rules and sanitary – environmental legislation.
