Abstract

Bioretention systems are of great importance LID structures for acting in runoff control and pollutant removal. Modelling bioretention systems are defying because many process and functions are involved. There are many efforts in modelling such systems. In this paper, we reviewed literature in order to stablish what are the functions and process involved in the systems modeling and the most important gaps. Bioretention performance in controlling flood and in pollutant removal are of great variability. Process considered in models and their mathematical representation are very diverse. Clogging, evapotranspiration, chemical removal were the most defying process to be modelled.
