Pervious concrete has grown in popularity as an
alternative infrastructure medium to enhance the
quality of surface water in developed geographical
areas. Previous studies have shown that pervious
concrete structures and the subgrade layer that
supports them are effective at significantly reducing
the concentrations of common pollutants such as soap,
motor oil, brake fluid, brake dust, and roof shingle
particles from rain water and snow melt. Studies
thus far have shown enough promise to encourage
growing use of pervious concrete in infrastructure
categories such as storm channels,...
