  Thématique de recherche

  Les eaux pluviales transportent de nombreux polluants de différentes concentrations et compositions dans les eaux des surfaces et souterraines. De nombreux aménagements « bleu-vert » ont été développés pour la gestion des eaux polluées, p.ex. sous la forme de bassins d’infiltration, de techniques alternatives (TA) telles que les noues, de Solutions fondées sur la Nature (SfN) comme des filtres plantés ou des marais flottants. Ces aménagements jouent un rôle crucial dans l'atténuation de l'impact du réchauffement climatique et de la perte de biodiversité dans les environnements urbains. Cependant, optimiser leur fonctionnement et le garantir sur le long terme fait encore l'objet de plusieurs questions de recherche, en plus d'autres défis incluant d'autres groupes scientifiques et sociétaux.

  L’énergie hydraulique des eaux pluviales arrivant dans ces aménagements, la variabilité des apports ainsi que la multitude de conditions physico-chimique et de processus microbiologiques entrainent une complexité de la distribution des polluants. Il est très difficile de mesurer les dynamiques de traitement, de stockage et de relargage d'un éventail assez large de polluants, ce qui rend assez complexe l'estimation de leurs impacts dans le milieu naturel.

  Mon intérêt scientifique repose sur le thème de l'impact des modifications physiques et bio-chimiques de ces aménagements et de leur résilience face aux changements globaux. J’envisage de développer des projets autours deux axes :

  • L’impact du vieillissement et de l'entretien des aménagements de traitement des eaux pluviales sur les dynamiques de rétention/relargages de polluants;
  • L’étude de l'impact des nouvelles générations d'aménagements intégrant des intensifications – permettant d'augmenter les capacités de rétention/valorisation des polluants tout en maintenant les fonctionnalités physiques.

  Stormwater and urban runoff transport numerous pollutants in different concentration ranges and compositions into surface waters and aquifers. A wide number of « blue-green » techniques have been developed to manage polluted waters, e.g. as infiltration basins, sustainable urban drainage infrastructures such as swales, or Nature-based Solutions (NBS) such as treatment wetlands. These infrastructures play a crucial role in mitigating the impact of global heating and the loss of biodiversity in urban environments. However, optimising their operation and guaranteeing it over the long term is still subject to several research questions, in addition to other challenges that include other research areas and societal groups.

  The hydraulic energy of stormwater and urban runoff arriving in these infrastructures, the variability of inflows and the multitude of physico-chemical conditions as well as microbial processes leads to a complex pollutant distribution. It is very difficult to measure treatment dynamics, storage and release of a fairly wide range of pollutants, which makes it quite complex to estimate their impact in the natural environment.

  My scientific interest lies on the impact of physical and bio-chemical modifications of these infrastructures and their resilience regarding global change. I am planning to develop research projects around two lines:

  • Impact of ageing and maintenance on stormwater treatment facilities on pollutant retention and release ;
  • Functioning of a new generation of intensified blue-green infrastructures allowing to increase pollutant retention/valorisation while maintaining physical functionality.
