Abstract/Contents:Presents a study conducted to "asses the feasibility and effectiveness of commercially marketed filters designed to strip nutrients...and pesticides...from drainage waters exiting managed turf areas." Describes the materials and the methods used in the experiment,explaining that "a hydrograph generator was created to simulate tile flow discharge. The hydrographs were generated from a supply reservoir containing a solution of nitrate nitrogen, dissolved phosphorus, chlorothalonil, and metalaxyl."

USGA Summary Points:Laboratory Study Substantial loading reductions were measured for dissolved reactive phosphorus (51.6%) and chlorothalonil (58.2% ), while intermediate reductions for metalaxyl (28.8%) and minor reductions for NO 3 -N (4.7%) were measured. For all contaminants, the discharge flow rate was inversely related to percent removal and was consistent across all tested hydrographs. The efficiency of the filters varied depending on the location within the hydrograph. A greater percent removal was observed during the rising limb compared to the peak and receding limbs. Field Study Preliminary data from the Minnesota field site suggests that the filter is significantly reducing the amount of ammonium, nitrate, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus. Additional materials have recently been identified and implemented at the field site in Texas.
