abstract = {This article reports the development and construction of a 1:1 scale laboratory prototype of a System for Catchment, Pre-treatment and Treatment (SCPT) of runoff polluted by contaminants washed from impervious pavements. The concept of the SCPT is an online system with an up-flow filter. The filter is composed geotextile layers and limestone. Laboratory tests carried out were focused on determining the SCPT prototype behaviour under different working conditions. The variables studied were: inflow, pollutant loads and filtration system configuration. The results show that the designed system has a high capacity for total solids and oil treatment, with an average efficiency of 85% and 97% respectively. Moreover, the regression equations of the treatment efficiency have been determined for each of the studied pollutants, for different inflow conditions and pollution loads.},
