I. Introduction
Drainage are being used as prevention for the accumulation of water that
can lead to flooding. It is designed to drain excess rain water and ground water
from impermeable surfaces such as paved streets, car parks, parking lots,
footpaths, sidewalks, and roofs. Solid wastes carried off by the rain water are
one of the major problems that causes clogging of the drainage. Drainage of
surface water is all the more important in hill roads. Apart from the drainage of
water from the road formation, the efficient diversion and disposal of water
flowing down the hill slope across the road and from numerous cross streams is
an important part of hill road construction. If drainage system in hill road is not
adequate and efficient, it will result in complex maintenance problems
(Chauhan, 2013).
Carmel Street is in need of drainage rehabilitation because of its current
situation like clogged by waste and incapable of containing normal volume of
storm water. The sloping terrain resulted to as more soil erodes that
accumulates sediments washed into the drainage pipes during the rain
(Engineer Paares, 2013). To keep the sediments from entering the drainage
pipes, an innovative filters are often solution.
As water floods the catch basin, small particles that slip through the grate
settle to the bottom. Drainage pipes are located above the bottom of this
vertical pipe, ensuring that the water that flows into the drains is clear of
sediment but it doesnt help from removing other particles like micro particles.
Filters are one of the solution to resolve the problem to keep micro particles
2
from going into the main or the city drainage and to improve water quality.
Many filters are out in the market that can be used to protect drainage from
clogging such as, manufactured, sand, and anthracite filters. These filters may
be effective, but the fact that it doesnt help in recycling, reusing, and reducing
environmental waste.
Rubber tires have the potential of hazardous fires and causes other health
implications. These scrap rubber tires is one of environmental waste that
accumulates each year. There are about 280 million of waste tires were
produced in year 2000 with yearly growth about 26% in stocked in different
states of USA (Sunthonpagasit and Hickman, 2003). Recycling tires may help
the environment and reduce the accumulation of waste caused by the rubber
tires. These rubber tires has high potential of being used as filter by
transforming it into crumbs.
Consequently crumb rubber tires as filters could be used for years with high
filtration rate. Even the outcome did not reach the goal of removing of the
micro waste, the crumb rubber filter could still be handy in terms of primary
treatment technology to improve the effectiveness of the typical filter (Tang,
2005). Crumb rubber tire is the material that is going to be used as a
replacement for other filter materials such as manufactured filter, sand, and
aggregates. Crumb rubber tires are derived materials from scrap tires to be used
as an innovative filter medium. Compared to sand or anthracite filter, there is a
significance in the filtration efficiency. As a compressible material, crumb
rubber forms an ideal porosity gradient in filters because the top layer of the
3
media is least compressed while the bottom layer is most compressed. Crumb
rubber filters favors in-depth filtration and allows longer filtration time and
higher filtration rate, which substantially increases the filtration efficiency
(Graf and Xie, 2000). As a filter medium, crumb rubber allows the porosity of
the filter bed to decrease through the filter, resulting in the smallest pore size at
the bottom and largest pore size on the top, which is ideal for down-flow
filtration. In comparison to both the sand/anthracite and crumb rubber filters
were effective in removing large particles (>10 m and >15 m). For the
sand/anthracite filter, the removal efficiencies for particles larger than 10 m
and 15 m were 89.4% and 94.5%, respectively. For the crumb rubber filter,
the removal efficiencies for particles larger than 10 m and 15 m were 86.8%
and 93.6%, respectively (Chen, 2004). By transforming these scrap rubber tires
into crumbs and use it as to innovate such as filter, will lessen the
environmental waste when practiced gradually.
II. Objective of the Study

VII. Review of Related Literature
Drainage
During rain, part of the rain water flow on surface and part of it
percolates through the soil mass as gravitational water until it reaches the
ground water below the water table. Removal and diversion of surface water
from the roadway and adjoining land is termed as surface drainage, while the
removal of excess soil-water from the sub-grade is termed as sub-surface water,
some water is retained in the pores of the soil mass and drained off by the
normal gravitational method and this water is termed as held water
(http://www.scribd.com/ Drainage-System-in-Highways). The excess water
may occur either on the surface or within the soil and the drainage system must
6
be designed to cope with the prevailing conditions. It should be emphasised,
however, that the installation of even a very intensive system of drains is no
guarantee of success. To ensure the maximum potential production is
attainable, each scheme must be scientifically designed and properly installed.
If either of these requirements is not fully implemented maximum returns will
not be achieved on the drainage investment (Galvin and Taluntais, 1978).
Filtration
Whether your water is hard or contaminated, there are compelling water
treatment advancements prepared to offer assistance. Water molding is the
treatment of water to change, upgrade, or enhance it so it meets a particular
water quality need, longing, or standard. On the other hand simply call it water
treatment. There are a wide range of treatment advancements that take care of
business. (John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 2013). Before disinfection, the filter can
also eliminates isolated solids and reduces the possibility of having infection.
As per recommended by the National Research Council (1996), crumb rubber
filter could be the most reliable ballast water treatment technology.
Filtration means to finish expulsion of suspended particles, colloidal
matter and also microorganisms by passing water through a porous medium fit
for holding the coarse molecule at first glance and the better contaminations in
the pores. The channel medium is normally a sand channel comprising of
various layers. The layers from the top comprise of fine sand put throughout
the following layer of coarse sand took after by fine gravel set in the course of
the last layer of coarse gravel. Water from sedimentation tanks is disseminated
7
consistently over the whole fine sand bed and to stream by gravity through the
distinctive layers. (Sivasankar, 2009). In filtration rate of the crumb rubber
filter, there was no apparent relationship between removal efficiency and filter
depth. Higher filtration rate resulted in lower removal efficiency and higher
head loss (Marine Environmental Research, May 2006). Centre for Affordable
Water and Sanitation Technology (CAWST) recommended that the filtration
rate through a typical filter should not be less than 0.4 liters per second (or
400 liters per square
Crumb Rubber Tires
As a compressible material, crumb rubber forms an ideal porosity
gradient in filters because the top layer of the media is least compressed while
the bottom layer is most compressed. Crumb rubber filter favours in-depth
filtration and allows longer filtration time and higher filtration rate, which
substantially increases the filtration efficiency (Graf and Xie 2000; Xie et al.
2001).
VIII. Methodology
Presented to this chapter are the research design, constraints of the study
research materials, research instruments, and research procedure and data
analysis tool.
Research Design
In order to gather the necessary data, the researchers used applied
research method. It includes techniques that used to summarize and describe
8
numerical data for the purpose of easier interpretation (Kazmier, 2004). It is a
scientific study whereby it seeks to solve problems of a certain locale or
community for the betterment of the quality of life.
Constraints of the Study
This study focuses on the preservation and improvement of water
quality and for the advancement of storm water management that the
researchers aimed to attain by the use of crumb rubber tire filter that will meet
the desire needs within realistic constraints such as environmental, economic,
and sustainability, in accordance with the standards.
Economical in a sense that used scrap tires can be recycled to come up
with another medium for water filtration- crumb rubber. Moreover, it paved a
way to a more environmental approach as to how to dispose tires which are
basically hazardous to ones health. And through our attempt for an advanced
storm water management, using crumb rubber as water filtration has a great
impact for the sustainability of the drainage system for the fact that it can last
longer with lesser maintenance.
Research Materials
The following materials were used in the water treatment facility:
Containers. This is employed to gather the water sample from the
current drainage for the analysis of water.
9
Fine crumb rubber. This was employed for the second stage of the
filtration process where it helps in preventing the pretreated water from the
contamination of small minerals.
Coarse crumb rubber. This was employed for the third stage of the
filtration for coarse filtration.
Aluminum steel. This was employed for the chamber of the crumb
rubber filter so that it will not corrode.
Research Procedure
The following were the steps and procedure followed in the conduct of
the study:
Assessment of the existing drainage. The researchers requested a
resolution letter from Engineer Diosdado A. Paares, Jr regarding the drainage
of Carmel Street. Engineer Paares responded that Carmel street drainage is
already inefficient when it comes to storm water management because of
clogged wastes (See Appendix A). The drainage configurations were also
attached on the said letter and was used as the basis of our design. (See
Appendix B).
Design of drainage.
The drainage design considered the following general conditions:
1. The depth of the connection with the main drainage in the street and
the grade of the house drain outlet. The depth of the house drain
10
outlet can be found by measuring the length of the longest branch of
the house drain.
2. The required ground coverings should be 30cm from the top of
concrete floor and 40cm of the ground covering without concrete
floor.
3. The 2% slope was considered on each horizontal drainage pipe line
that was installed at station to the next station. The height of the rise
angle of the pipe line could be determined by using the formula:
Height = Length x 2%
The design conditions mentioned above are customary in every
residential drainage design (Fajardo, 1994).
Design of Filter. Filter Design was integrated with innovative material
which is Crumb rubber tires. Crumb rubber was filled into the cylindrical
stainless chamber in 4- layers with different sizes. Crumb rubber sizes are
0.125 in., 0.25 in, 0.375 in. and 0.5 in. The cylindrical G.I. steel filter was
manufactured by Weldone Steelworks Corporation as the whole formworks of
the filter in the catch basin. The dimensions of filter has a 0.60m diameter and
depth of 0.90m.
Production of crumb rubber. Crumb rubber tire were manufactured
through mechanical grinding. Mechanical grinding is the process of breaking
up of a scrap tire using whole car or truck tires in the form of shred or chips, or
sidewalls or treads. The rubbers, metals and textiles are sequentially separated
out. Tires are passed through a shredder, which breaks the tires into chips. Finer
11
rubber particles can be obtained through further grinding in secondary grinding
process by using heavy duty meat grinder.
Determining the Sizes of Crumb Rubber. Crumb Rubbers consist of
particles with various shapes and sizes. (ASTM D6913 04) Standard Test
Methods for Particle-Size Distribution (Gradation) of Soils Using Sieve
Analysis, this test method is used to separate particles into size ranges and also
uses a square opening sieve criterion in determining the gradation of soil
between the 3-in. (75-mm) and No. 200 (75-m) sieves.
Experiment Proper. There were two experiments conducted for the
designed filter and these are the Hydrometer Test Method and the Bucket
Method Test.
Hydrometer test was conducted for the efficiency of the filter by
determining the percentage drop amount of fined-grain soils after the filtration
process. Bucket method test was used to determine the maximum flow rate of
the crumb rubber filter to avoid overflowing of the designed drainage.
Hydrometer Test Method. For the efficiency of the crumb rubber filter,
(ASTM D422-63) Standard Test Method for Particle-Size Analysis of Soils was
used to determine the percentage of different grain size of soil before and after
passing the crumb rubber filter. This test method covers the quantitative
determination of the distribution of particle sizes in soils. The distribution of
particle sizes larger than 75 m (retained on the No. 200 sieve) is determined
by sieving, while the distribution of particle sizes smaller than 75 m is
12
determined by a sedimentation process, using a hydrometer to secure the
necessary data.
Bucket Method Test. In determining the average actual flow rate of the
Crumb rubber filter, Bucket method was used. The Bucket method is a simple
way to measure the flow rate using household items. It requires a stopwatch, a
large bucket or a basin, and preferably two to three people.
To measure the flow rate using the bucket method:
1. Measure the volume of the bucket or basin. Keep in mind that a typical
1 liter bucket is often actually less than 1 liter.
2. Put the bucket in the outlet of the filter in order to have the volume of
storm water that passes through the filter.
3. With a stopwatch, time how long it takes the storm water to fill the
bucket. Start the stopwatch simultaneously with the start of the bucket
being filled and stop the stopwatch when the bucket fills. The bucket
should not be filled by holding it below the surface of the filter because
it is not the true flow rate.
4. Record the time it takes to fill the bucket.
5. Repeat steps two and three about 4 or 5 times and take the average. It is
a good idea to do a few trial runs before recording any data so that one
can get a feel for the timing and measurements required.
6. Only eliminate data if major problems arise.
7. The flow rate is the volume of the bucket divided by the average time it
took to fill the bucket.
Data Analysis Tool
13
Mean is arithmetic average of the scores, calculated by adding all the
scores and dividing by the total number of scores. This tool was used to
determine the average actual flow rate of the crumb rubber filter.
Percentage is a display of data that specifies the percentage of
observations that exist for each data point or grouping of data points. It
is a particularly useful method of expressing the relative frequency of
survey responses and other data. Many times, percentage frequency
distributions are displayed as tables or as bar graphs or pie charts. This
tool was used in showing the percentage amount of the distribution fined
grain soils.
IX. Results and Discussion
Presented to this chapter were the drainage lay-out and the design of the
drainage and its innovative filter. Most of the results were illustrated in tables
and statistically analyzed. The following data will be interpreted in accordance
with the research objectives and procedures.
Current Drainage Lay-out. The current layout of the drainage was
presented as per actual assessment at Carmel Street by the researchers. The
drainage is an open canal and connecting the drainage flow from Sinai Street to
Samaria Street. The directions of the flow of water within the drainage were
represented with yellow arrows. There are four catch basins found to be
clogged with waste and silts which are marked with red rectangles. Other catch
basins which were represented with color blue rectangles are still capable of
filtering some silts and is not clogged with waste (Figure 2).
14
Figure 2. Drainage Layout
New Drainage Design. The researches decided to condemn some
culvert pipe connected between blocks at the street of Carmel for it to have an
easy detection of any clogging between culvert pipes and catch basins which is
presented in Plan view (See Appendix F). The drainage has a total length of
183.84m and the length of distance between each catch basin depends on the
length of each block in the street and it shown in site development plan (See
Appendix F). The drainage was designed with a 1m x 1m x 1.2m catch basin
with a culvert pipe that has 0.46m diameter. The diameter of the RCCP used
by the researchers was the same as the existing culvert pipe and also, the invert
elevation was presented in the Profile view(See Appendix F).The drainage uses
a hybrid type for it to have an effective distribution of water and higher flow
rate between pipes along the street during rain (Lara 2015). The crumb rubber
filter is shown in Figure 3, for it to have an accessible maintenance on both
catch basin and the filter, a 0.60m x 0.60m manhole is found at the top of the
catch basin. The height of the rise of catch basins will depend on the distance
15
of between catch basins multiplied by two percent (Fajardo 2000). The filter is
placed in the middle of the catch basin which has a diameter of 0.60m and 0.90
depth. The filter has a top cover with a screen at its inlet which can protect
larger wastes entering the filter. Silts are being filtered at the bottom part where
a 4 layered crumb rubber tires are found.
Figure 3. Cross Sectional and Top View of the Filter with Crumb Rubber Tires
Hydrometer Test. This test is performed to determine
the percentage distribution of the finer particles contained within a soil. The
researchers used the hydrometer method to test the efficiency of the filter by
investigating if there are reduction of fine particles present in the sample after it
was filtered. There were two set of samples used in this test. One of these was
the 1000ml of water with 50g of fined grain soils before it passes through the
filter and the other one was the 1000ml of water with 50g of fined grain soils
but already passes through the filter. The researchers will knew if there was
reduction of fine particles if the percent finer of the sample after it was filtered
is lesser than the percent finer of the sample before it was filtered.
16
The observations of the sample before it passes through the filter by
Hydrometer Test are shown in Table 5. There were 6 hydrometer readings
done with its corresponding time, and temperature. Depth L with its
corresponding Actual hydrometer value are given in Table 1 (See Appendix C).

As shown in Table 6, percent finer have large values for the fact that the
sample used was the water before it passes through the filter and it also means
that it has much fined grain soils content. Percent finer have also these
percentage amount since it is directly proportional to the actual Hydrometer
reading value but inversely proportional to the depth L.

The tabulation of data and observations are shown in Table 7. In these
observations, the sample used was the water with fined grain soils after it
passes through the filter. The readings of depth L drastically increasing
compared to the 1st sample and it means that the content of fine grain soils in
the water were reduced. On the other hand, the actual hydrometer readings
radically decreasing with the same elapsed time in the 1 st sample and it is
because of the large values of depth L.

after the filtration process in the same elapsed time reading. It was clearly
manifested as what are shown in percentage values in percent finer difference.

Bucket Method Test. Average actual flowrate of the filter was
determined by bucket method test to check if the filter design is effective and
safe. The Bucket method is a simple way to measure the flow rate using
household items. It requires a stopwatch, a large bucket, and preferably two to
three people.
Results & Calculations:
In determining the average actual flow rate of the filter, Continuity
Equation was used which is defined as;
Q = VA = Volume / time
Where; Q = actual flow rate of the crumb rubber filter
V = actual velocity
A = cross-sectional area of the crumb rubber filter
The tabulation of the results of the Bucket method test are given in Table
10 and it shows that the numerical value of the average actual flow rate of the
crumb rubber filter has close greater value to a typical media filter standard
flow rate which is equal to 0.4L/min. This means that there were much greater
volume of water that can pass through the crumb rubber filter which is one way
to avoid flooding in the catch basin.

X. Conclusion
This study has fulfilled its objectives. Based on the results, the following
conclusions has been made:
1. Carmel Street current drainage layout was presented and found out that
the current drainage is already clogged of wastes and silts based on the
actual assessment of the researchers. These wastes and silts were
gathered from flowing water passing through the street of Carmel.
2. The proposed drainage design was based on the assessments acquired
by the researchers from Engr. Diosdado A. Paares Jr., a volunteered
engineer who is knowledgeable about road drainage system
21
configuration. And for the drainage catch basin, it was improved by
designing it with innovative crumb rubber filter. As a result of the trade-
off analysis for the filter design, the researchers came up with a conical
shape filter with 4 layers of crumb rubber tires. The use of crumb
rubber tires served as filter medium that leads to reduction of silts and
fined grain soils as well as the waste caused by tires in the environment.
Therefore, the drainage design is efficient and effective in terms of its
environmental aspect as well as the economical aspect.
3. As what have shown in the Hydrometer Test, Crumb Rubber tires as a
medium filter is proven to be effective in reducing silts and fined grain
soils since the percent content of the fined grain soils present in the
storm water has decreased.
4. The filters average actual flow rate was determined and presented and
it is equal to 0.479121 L/min which has close greater value to a typical
media filter which is equal to 0.4 L/min, this means that there will be
greater volume of water that can pass through the crumb rubber filter.
Therefore, filter design in terms of its filtration rate is efficient enough
to avoid flooding in the catch basin.
XI. Recommendations
The researchers recommended to remove the clogged wastes in the
drainage that is blocking the flow of water. Based on the findings and
conclusions, the filter with crumb rubber tires is recommended to be placed at
the catch basin of the drainage. The researchers who would like to follow this
study, further study such as improving its efficiency and performance as a filter
media through Turbidity Test can be executed.
22
For the environmental perspective of this study, the proponents
recommended to use crumb rubber tires to lessen the waste of scrap tires since
it is hazardous to health and it causes air pollution in some aspects. Rubber tire
is a non-biodegradable material that ones being exposed to the environment
with greater chance of toxic chemical contaminants can highly threatened the
environmental sustainability but if so to be used in an effective way such as
filter, it surely helps the rapid growth of industrialization without
compromising its effect, may it be good or bad, to the environment.
