ABSTRACT

Infiltration & Inflow (I&I) are a major cause for separate sanitary sewers overflows (SSOs). A proper planning of actions for controlling SSOs needs a precise quantification of these events, as well as an identification of the respective contributions of infiltration into sewer and inappropriate connection of runoff water to sanitary sewers. For these purposes a specific model is being developed and validated on a dozen catchments of Nantes Metropole urban community. This paper details the issues of SSOs control and the method which is proposed to deal with them. Results are presented about the screening of observed overflows according to their causes, and about the efficiency of the model for simulating peak flows and overflow risks. The overall capacity of the model to extrapolate infiltration and inflow discharge from meteorological data is fairly good, but its ability to reproduce peak flows leading to pumping capacity saturation is less satisfying.

KEYWORDS

Infiltration and inflow, conceptual model, overflow, pumping station, sanitary sewer

CONTEXT

Separate sewers design is based on the principle of a selective water collection. Very variable flows caused by run off on impervious surfaces during rain events are collected by a sewer system dedicated to storm water, whereas smaller and steadier flows of sanitary wastewater (SWW) are collected in another sewer system: separate sanitary sewers (SSS). During rain events, a part of storm water is nonetheless collected in SSS, because of inappropriate connections of runoff water from house laterals. These inputs are usually called (runoff) inflow. In addition, sanitary sewers collect infiltration water, which presents important flow-rate variations during winter rainy periods. These two contributions build up infiltration and inflow (I&I) extraneous water. When cumulated with sanitary discharge, I&I can overshoot the capacity of wastewater transport and treatment facilities, and cause sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) of raw wastewater in the environment (EPA, 2004).

An efficient control of SSOs implies (among other actions) a reduction of I&I flow rates peaks. This can be achieved by checking house laterals and having them fixed and/or by sealing leaky sewers. So technical solutions exist, but the question is a proper identification of the problem. This identification includes two steps:

a. quantify overflow events specifically caused by I&I;

(3)

Solutions for I&I control are not 100% efficient: having every lateral fixed, or every crack sealed is not practically feasible. They also take some time (a few months or years, depending on the size of the catchment). Thus checking their efficiency on each particular catchment is crucial, to follow up their progression, and also get some clues for making decisions on other catchments.

The quantification of overflow events specifically caused by I&I must deal with two issues. Firstly, all overflows are not caused by excess discharge: some electro-mechanical dysfunctions may lead to the same results. Thus observed overflow events must be diagnosed before quantifying them as a whole. Secondly, overflows events results from the conjunction of three factors: sewer condition; meteorological context, and pumping capacity. Direct observation of SSO events or total discharge is difficult to interpret, either for comparing one catchment to another one, or to compare the same catchment before and after rehabilitation. The effects of meteorological conditions and specific dynamics of I&I on each catchment cannot be grasped directly from observations over one year or so. A risk analysis based on discharge time series extrapolated for standard meteorological conditions seems to be more suitable (Reeves, 2001).

Regarding the identification of the causes of overflows, most usual I&I assessment techniques are not specifically dedicated to peak flows. Anyway they provide clues for these conditions by putting the focus on inflow. The contribution of infiltration to peak flows is commonly thought to be negligible, but this assumption may be over-optimistic (Joannis et

al., 2002). Regarding the efficiency assessment of I&I control,

Our research project aims to design an Infiltration & Inflow model and check its ability to provide a reliable assessment of SSO induced by Infiltration and Inflow. This model should perform two tasks:

a. extrapolate observed data for an overall assessment of I&I related to SSOs, either for an initial evaluation, or for following-up the efficiency of actions;

b. identify the respective contributions of infiltration and inflow to SSOs, in the scope of problem identification.

This project is being developed in partnership with Nantes Metropole urban community sanitation department. This large community (500 000 people) is serviced with a mixed combined/separate systems. It happens that most sanitary sewer overflows occur from pumping stations into sensitive receiving waters (small rivers and brooks, with many recreation uses), whereas combined sewer overflows are discharged into the Loire River, which is much more compliant. So SSOs control is a big challenge for the years to come (Joannis et al., 2006).

METHOD

Overall methodology

The project includes the following steps:

- analysing records of pumping station operation available from operators for a few years

- selecting some catchments for model development and validation - overall calibration and validation of the I&I model

(4)

- application of the model to sort catchments according the importance of the overflow problem and the kind of source

- application of the model to check this efficiency of sewer rehabilitation on a few pilot catchment where as many laterals as possible have been fixed

This paper deals with the first three steps.

Data

This study uses recorded time series of rainfall, pumping durations and overflow durations at pumping stations. In a first step, data for 42 pumping stations available from operators for the years 2002 to 2004 were analysed. Most of them were recorded with daily step time but four of them afford an hourly step time. This preliminary screening enabled to select 28 catchments for modelling purpose. On these stations recording of pumping duration was set up with an hourly time step since January 2006. For 19 of them, overflow duration are available. Pumping durations are not converted into flow rates, but are used as surrogates. This is not a problem when modelling a load ratio of the pumping capacity for identifying overload (and overflow) conditions. A conversion will be needed later, when assessing the efficiency of some rehabilitation. This paper presents results are based on data of 5 “new” recordings for two years (2006-2007) and 4 previously available recordings for almost three years (2002-2004).

Data of 14 rain gauges stations are available for the whole period of study, and the data from the nearest 4 rain gages are selected for analysing the operation of each pumping station. Daily evapotranspiration values are available from a nearby weather forecast station, and are interpolated into hourly values with a parabolic function.

Data validation

Recordings of pumping stations are easy to get but they require some precautions for using pumping durations as surrogates for flow rates. For that purpose, we have developed a tool (Raynaud et al., 2007a) which has a double objective:

1. to discard pumping duration or overflow data which are aberrant or lacking of sufficient other data for checking their consistency

2. to identify data recorded during a normal operational context (except for excessive discharge) from those recorded during equipment dysfunctions which are rather frequent (Korving et al., 2005).

As modelling is focused on I&I and their impact on overflows, only data of a normal operational context are used, including overflow periods. During overflow events, pumping durations do not represent the discharge from the catchment, but they can still be used for calibrating or assessing a model as comparison by properly truncating the output of the model to simulate overflows.

This tool is based on the application of a dozen simple rules, which check the intrinsic likelihood of the recorded values (for example hourly pumping duration cannot be much higher than 60 minutes) and the consistency of three types of information: overflow duration, pumping duration and rainfall (for example, overflow duration should not exceed pumping duration, except in case of sopped pumps). A description of the rules and an assessment of their efficiency is described in (Raynaud et al., 2007) for daily data. Rules are different for hourly data and simplified versions are available for pumping station with no recording of overflows.

Infiltration and Inflow model

This model is a 6 parameters rainfall-runoff model with an hourly time-step, belonging to the family of soil moisture accounting models. Such models were for instance developed for the discharge from small rural catchments (Edijatno et al.1999, Perrin, 2000) and adapted to urban drainage for rainfall-infiltration into sanitary sewers (Belhadj, 1994, Dupasquier, 2000). This paper presents a new version called SECP which includes the inflow component.

SECP is described by figure l. Parameters are underlined. Inputs of the model are the rainfall depth (P) and the estimated potential evapotranspiration (E) at a given time step. Each equation described on the graph corresponds to a continuous formulation. Discrete formulations are obtained from integration over the time step. The ground storage (S) creates a seasonal effect for infiltration production (one parameter), while inflow production is constant all year. Infiltration discharge has a slow and a fast component, both come from storage which are fed by efficient rainfall and emptied via quadratic law (one parameter for each storage). State variables of the model are expressed as water depths. To get an output expressed as a volume par unit time, each of the components (inflow, low and fast infiltration) has a scale parameter (three parameters).

Figure 1. Diagram of the SECP model. Model parameters optimisation

Parameter identification is performed by a simplex search method described by (Lagarias and al., 1998). Nash-Sutcliffe criterion (Nash and Sutcliffe, 1970) has been chosen for objective function. It is calculated from recorded (observed) and estimated (modelled) truncated total flow rates (cf. figure 2c). As SECP model only Infiltration and Inflow (cf. figure 2b), total discharge is estimated by adding a daily sanitary mean hydrograph (cf. figure 2a) to modelled I&I. This hydrograph is derived from recordings by selecting dry days, and removing infiltration discharge assessed with a 24h minimum discharge method. Optimisation is made on one hydrologic year (from September to September), but a preliminary one year period is used to get appropriate initial conditions of the internal state variable of the model.

(6)

Model results are validated by comparing observed and modelled flows on a validation year, different from the optimisation year. It allows checking that model parameters are linked to the catchment seer state, and not depend on the meteorological conditions of the optimisation year. This step is necessary if we want to use the model for extrapolation. By combining available data on the 9 catchments under consideration, we get a total of 13 calibration station-years and 19 validation station-years (two years have been rejected because of a negative scale parameter). Criteria are necessary to assess model performance on those validation years.

Two classical criteria have been used:

N=1 ; V=

-N, Nash-Sutcliffe criterion, used for objective function during parameters optimisation. It gives an assessment of the capacity of the model to follow the dynamics of discharge, with the proper timing (no delay, either positive or negative);

-V, a criterion of volume error. It is an assessment of the capacity of the model to provide an overall quantification of I&I, and their variations for different years, with non reference to the dynamics.

We also use a third family of criteria that is more specific to our application. It focuses on discharge exceeding some fixed threshold, and quantifies them as a whole by their cumulated duration expressed as a percentage of the duration of one year.

RESULTS

Validation tool and data analysis

Some results obtained with the validation tool are presented in (Raynaud & al., 2007b). The main result concern the part of equipment dysfunction which leads to overflow of pumping stations. As we can see on table 1, operation and maintenance (O&M) overflows are of the same order as infiltration and inflow (I&I) overflow. O&M overflows are very variable depending on the station. But the general importance of those SSO is such that validating data seems obligatory to analysis normal hydraulic behaviour, either for flow rates and overflows.

Table 1. Overflow yearly average duration (h), added for 42 pumping stations.

Results about hydraulic behaviour have shown that:

-infiltration has at least an aggravating effect towards direct inflow in the generation of overflow, but it is quite possible that infiltration can cause overflows on its own;

-taking overflow data of a fixed year or couple of years to assess the vulnerability of a catchment to infiltration and inflow is not suited. The inter annual variability in overflow durations is very different from a station to another, and even their ranking according to overflow is changed. This consolidates the choice to have recourse in extrapolation to compare catchments states, either between two catchments or before and after actions.

Data analysis

Following results are concerning hourly data of the nine pumping stations of which hourly data have been processed. To illustrate overflow duration variability, figure 3 presents Infiltration & Inflow and Operation & Maintenance overflow durations (yearly averaged) for each station. Results are very heterogeneous, especially concerning I&I overflows, with, for example, a factor of 40 between Ch. station and Bi. station.

Figure 3. Flow yearly average characteristic, for the 9 studied stations.

Pumping rates are more consistent for all stations. During 5% of the period (quantile 95%), pumping rates are below 75% for most stations. For half of the stations, the saturation of pumping capacity is not reached for the quantile 99% . So, even if pumping capacities are sufficient during usual conditions (dry weather or small rainfall events), flow peaks due to

rainfall events are able to lead to overflows, at least for catchments sensible to Infiltration and Inflow as the ones selected here

Behaviours of the stations to rainfall events seem however different. For example, B.P. station and Bil. station have a similar mean flow but quantile 95% of the pumping rate distribution is higher for Bi. station. As flow peaks are more frequent, this station has a larger overflow duration. And even if Ch. station has significantly higher mean flow and quantile 95% than Pl. station, quantile 99% and overflow duration are lower. This is more marked between Ch. station and Co. station. This shows that catchments have very different responses to rainfall events. These behaviours lead to different peak flows which are important in the generation of overflows.

Overall model validation

We can see an example of the model results on figure 4. Nash criterion is 84% for this validation year. The volume error is 4%. Observed and modelled quantiles 99% reach 80% of the pumping capacity. Observed and modelled quantiles 95% are equal to43% of the pumping capacity. 0 5 10 01/09/03 02/11/03 03/01/04 05/03/04 06/05/04 07/07/04 D e p th ( m m ) Rainfall 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% 120% 140% 160% 180% 200% 01/09/03 02/11/03 03/01/04 05/03/04 06/05/04 07/07/04 C a p a c it y u s e 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% 120% 140% 160% 180% 200% Observed Modelled

Figure 4. Observed and simulated flows for a validation year, at Cogne station.

For the nineteen station-years of validation, Nash criteria have an average of 65%. Two station-years have a criterion lower than 50%, what is due to a bad quality of data which leads to a rapid fall of the criterion. Six station-years criteria are between 50% and 70%. In those cases, a significant part of the errors seems to be due to a bad estimation of sanitary water discharges with the daily hydrogram. Eleven station-years Nash criteria are higher than 70%. In a general way, a part of the error is due to the difference between estimated and real sanitary discharges. On figure 4, modelled and observed discharges during May and June illustrate this difference. In this period, modelled discharges (which are practically only sanitary water) have lower variations and are, in average, lower than observed discharges.

(9)

The absolute volume errors average is 12%, with in most cases an underestimation. Three station-years have errors under -20% and four have errors between -20% and -10%. This is also due to an underestimation of the sanitary flow, as can be checked during dry-periods. Ten station-years have absolute errors under 10%, six of which under 5%. Two station-years overestimate of more than 20% the volume. In those last cases, bad results come from bad extrapolation with modelling.

Whereas quantiles 95% are well modelled compared to observed ones, results for quantile 99% are not so good. This comes from the difficulty to model peaks flow, even for most of the optimisation station-years. The model is in fact able to reproduce peaks, but not so sharp as some of the observed ones.

Capacity of the model for overflow assessment

Extrapolation results are fairly satisfying and could be improved with better sanitary discharge estimations. However flow peaks are not accurately simulated, which is a concern for an application to overflow assessment. In this section we use simulated data for validation station-years to check the possibilities of SECP used as an extrapolation tool for assessing overflow risks.

Figure 5 presents results obtained for pumping rates exceeded different thresholds, expressed as percentage of time. A pumping rate which reaches 100% capacity leads potentially to an overflow. Bars represent observed percentage and square dots modelled percentage. We can see on figure 5a that the model generally underestimates the percentage of flow exceeding maximum capacity. If we take a lower threshold, 75% of the pumping capacity on figure 5b, results are a bit better but still with underestimation.

Figure 5a, 5b. Comparison of peak flows assessed from SECP, with observations and with

results from a crude transposition method, for 19 station-years.

Triangles represent the kind of extrapolation which may be obtained without a model like SECP. In this case an observed year is used as a reference to estimate pumping rate exceeding frequency, by applying a transposition coefficient (ratio of total rainfall depths between reference year and extrapolation). For each validation year-station, the reference year is the corresponding calibration year-station.

Black squares and associated white triangles show results where simulated values are nearer to observation than results from the crude transposition method. Black triangle and white squares show the opposite situation. Grey squares and triangles are for cases where no saturation of the pumping capacity and (probable overflows) has been simulated, whereas some have been observed, and transposition strongly overestimates their frequency of these saturation events. Indeed in these cases both simulation and extrapolation are performing poorly.

For the 100% threshold, in six cases neither SECP nor transposition is suitable, whereas SECP clearly performs better than transposition in five cases, and somewhat worse in six cases. In two cases no saturation is observed, and both SECP and transposition correctly assess this situation. SECP results are far better at 75% pumping rate threshold, with fifteen good performances.

More over, the ranking of stations according to a pumping rate threshold exceeding is correctly established by the model for every set of optimisation/validation years (this does not appear on figure 5 as all set of optimisation/validation station-years are plotted together) This comparison only is a first assessment of the ability of the model, as it does not correspond to real application conditions. When the model is used for extrapolation, overflows for one particular year have little interest compared with an overflow assessment over a representative period of time, presumably ten years or so.

CONCLUSION

Infiltration & Inflow (I&I) are a major cause for separate sanitary sewers overflows (SSOs). A proper planning of actions for controlling SSOs needs a precise quantification of these events, as well as the identification of the respective contributions of infiltration into sewer and inappropriate connection of runoff water to sanitary sewers. For these purposes a specific model is being developed and validated on a dozen catchments of Nantes Metropole urban community. This model is a continuous conceptual model accounting for soil moisture by using evapotranspiration as an input. The overall capacity of the model to extrapolate infiltration and inflow discharge from meteorological data is fairly good, but its ability to reproduce peak flows leading to pumping capacity saturation is less satisfying. It is still better than a simple transposition of data from a single year. A part of the uncertainty comes from sanitary discharge which is modelled separately as mean daily hydrographs.

The next step is to process data from more catchments in order to check these results. The errors of the model will be detailed by calculating the Nash criterion between sanitary mean hydrograph and another estimation of sanitary discharge. For that purpose, a conductivity recording is available on one station. Sanitary water discharge will be then estimated with a dilution method. Finally possible modifications of the SECP model will be investigated to improve peaks modelling.

In a second step, pilot catchments have been selected in order to remove inflow by checking house connections and having them fixed. The data will be used to identify which component of the modelled discharge may represent inflow, and to further validate the infiltration component of the model.
