- W4322005617 abstract "Wastewater management and treatment are key points in maintaining the quality and the sustainability of water resources. To preserve receiving water environments, efforts are being conducted to improve the treatment efficiency. Soil infiltration can therefore be used as a nature-based solution tertiary treatment, in some areas without surface water available, or with supplementary water bodies’ protection regulations. Secondary wastewater effluents (SWE) infiltration surfaces  mainly consist of infiltration trenches or flood-meadows. Among the main issues encountered with soil infiltration, two can be highlighted: the possible low hydraulic conductivity induced by soil clogging, on the one hand, and the use of non-renewable draining materials such as pebbles or gravel to ensure the distribution of water in trenches, on the other hand. In France, in order to overcome those issues, stakeholders are now considering the replacement of the gravel with woodchips, a renewable biodegradable material, also prone to biodiversity in soils. If there is no woodchip-filled soil infiltration surfaces downstream wastewater treatment plant in France, woodchips are however used for decentralized wastewater treatment, even though no study has quantified precisely their efficiency. The understanding of the flow processes and the risk of preferential flows in the woodchip-filled infiltration trenches is a prerequisite for a proper management of these works.Our study aims at investigating flow regimes in woodchip-filled infiltration trenches. Several woodchip-filled infiltration trenches were studied and analyzed with regards to their infiltration capacity in four decentralized wastewater treatment sites, located in South-West of France on silty-clay soil. Measurements of infiltration capacity of the soil below the woodchips-filled trenches were conducted with infiltration tests according to the Beerkan method (Braud et al., 2005). On each site, two tests were conducted on the bottom of the infiltration trenches after extracting woodchips and two others in the soil at a lateral distance of 1 m from the infiltration trench at the same soil depth, in order to sample the same type of soil. The soil hydraulic functions, i.e., water retention and hydraulic conductivity curves, below the woodchips and in the natural soil profiles were then calculated using the BEST method (Angulo-Jaramillo et al., 2019) and compared. Our findings showed that the use of woodchips locally maintains or even enhances the infiltration rate in the soil below. Moreover, the hydraulic conductivity was 5 to 14 times higher (up to 8600 mm.d-1) in soils under woodchip-filled infiltration trenches than in the reference soils. To explain such positive effects, several hypothesis were formulated and discussed against physical, biogeochemical and ecological factors (woodchips organic amendment, suitable moisture conditions, earthworm communities’ activity). Dye tracer experiment, soil pit, and soil samples (chemical tracings and analyses) revealed the presence of preferential pathways induced by macro fauna and roots plants. An earthworm count showed that the majority of earthworms in the woodchips were 10 times higher than in the natural soil profile. Experiments also showed an organic carbon enrichment in woodchip-filled infiltration trenches soils that could lead to an improvement and stabilization of soils structure." @default.
