Article Synopsis
  • Sediment buildup in sewer systems can decrease their drainage capacity, leading to urban flooding and safety hazards, driven by various environmental factors that are not fully understood.
  • This study investigated the interaction of five environmental factors—population, traffic, climate, air quality, and wastewater quality—on sediment accumulation in different sewer structures in Kyoto, Japan, from 2014 to 2023.
  • Findings revealed that population and traffic increased sediment due to pollutant emissions, while climate and air quality significantly influenced deposition, highlighting the importance of these factors for understanding sewer sedimentation in the context of climate change.
