Salt storage asphalt pavement has been considered as a functional pavement that could effectively and actively melt snow on the road. Based on the previous studies, the macro melting snow and ice mechanism on the salt storage road is studied, high perfor...

Studies have shown that salt concentrations are increasing in waterbodies such as lakes, rivers, wetlands, and streams in areas where deicers are commonly applied for winter road maintenance, resulting in degraded water quality. As the salt concentration...

Road salts in stormwater runoff, from both urban and suburban areas, are of concern to many. Chloride-based deicers [i.e., sodium chloride (NaCl), magnesium chloride (MgCl2), and calcium chloride (CaCl2)], dissolve in runoff, travel downstream in the aqu...

The negative effects of applying deicing salts to ecosystems are well documented for many countries. Most chemical transport from roads occurs in stormwater runoff through or over soil. Runoff pollutants alter soil chemistry, may be absorbed by plants an...

A representative watershed was instrumented with five gauging sites (n = 5), partitioning the catchment into five nested-scale sub-watersheds. Four physiochemical variables were monitored: water temperature, pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), and dissolve...

In many European countries including Hungary, winter conditions produce disruption of traffic, as well as the increase in road users? (vehicle operating, time delay and accident) costs. In most areas, the severity of winter conditions varies from year to...

Metals such as antimony, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, nickel, and zinc can be highly relevant pollutants in stormwater runoff from traffic areas because of their occurrence, toxicity, and non-degradability. Long-term measurements of their concentrati...

Alternative materials, like recycling materials, industrial by-products and soils already influenced by human activities (e.g. urban soils) are commonly accepted as building material in earthwork constructions. The risk of contaminant leaching from these...
