  1. Czech Technical University in PragueFaculty of Civil Engineering aboratory of the Ecological Risks in Urban Drainage LERMO Dana Komínková, Ph.D.

  2. The Laboratory of Ecological Risks in Urban Drainage • Founded at 1998 - project “Improvement of scientific work at Czech universities” • 5 researchers, 9 PhD students, 4 technicians • Fluid mechanics and rheometrics lab • Physical, chemical and biological lab • Mathematical modelling

  3. Basicapproach

  4. LERMO’s present projects • Czech Ministry of Education: Integrated Water Management and Floods Prevention under Sustainable Development • Since 2001 – 5. RTD Programme EU - Assessing Infiltration and Exfiltration on the Performance of Urban Sewer System • Czech Grant Agency: Expert System for Assessment of Urban Drainage Reliability • Czech Grant Agency: Remobilization of Heavy Metals and Changes in their Distribution Coefficients as Part of Ecological Risk Assessment in Urban Watersheds of Small Streams (postdoc project)

  5. Mathematical modelling • 1D runoff processes and pipe flow in sewers • 3D flow in structures (CSO, manholes, pipes, etc.) on sewer system Example of flood in CSO

  6. CTU Prague - LERMO • Effects of Flood on Urban Drainage • Transport and transformation processes in sewers • Sediment as a transport medium for pollution • Impact on physical, chemical and biological components of urban drainage systems • Legislative • Storm and flood water management

  7. LERMO’s offer • Influence of floods on hydraulic, chemical and biological behavior of sewer systems • Evaluation of ecomorphological conditions of small urban creeks under flood • Remobilization of heavy metals from sediment into water • Restoration of benthic community after extreme floods in urban small creeks • Etc………
