Effective Mitigation of Inflow and Infiltration Requires Careful Analysis

Modify your cost-effective analysis elements to increase I&I mitigation efficiency.

Effective Mitigation of Inflow and Infiltration Requires Careful Analysis

Three ways to improve upon cost-effective analyses are by calculating inflow and infiltration removal by region, using genetic algorithms and considering the long-term costs of future system degradation. 

Finding the most efficient method for inflow and infiltration mitigation and removal is simply a matter of rethinking your analysis, according to a white paper written by Rick Nelson, director of conveyance technology at CH2M Hill, and presented at a North American Society for Trenchless Technology No-Dig Show.

I&I is one of the most important issues for stormwater utilities, and cost-effective analyses, or CEAs, have long been used to aid in that venture. NASTT provides...
