Abstract
This study proposes a decentralized RTC of a combined sewer systems by using smart gates, which during high rainfall-runoff events, partially or fully close to use the actual storage capacity of the sewer pipes upstream. In this study the effect of gates is evaluated by modelling in SWMM two scenarios of the combined sewer systems. The use of smart gates provides beneficial effects to the overall hydraulic performance of the network during critical rainfall-runoff events, offering an alternative and valid solution for controlling flooding in urban areas.
