Urbanization in Malaysia has contributed to the increased of volume runoff to the drainage system. SUDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage System) / MSMA (Manual Saliran Mesra Alam) has been implement in Malaysia within several of components. Hence, swale is one of the designed and suggested by SUDS or MSMA in order to control the quantity and quality storm water runoff. The present study aimed to determine the quality of storm water runoff in swale and to analyse storm water runoff treatment using sand column as a part of filtration process.  Water quality parameters tested included COD, BOD5, DO and TSS. The samples was test with sand column on D30, D60, D90 and DMIX. The results revealed that sand column improved the water quality by 4% to 80%. In conclusion, the sand column can be used to improve the storm water quality and can enhance the natural habitat.

The industrial sector is one of the important sector in supporting the development of a region. Utilization of land around the river that is used for industrial activities will affect the quality of river water. The river can be polluted by waste personinating from industries that operating around the river. The catchment area that used for industry, agriculture, urban development, and the use of land for making roads (gravel or footpaths) can affect the flow of surface water and sediments that it brings to the river. Waste generated from industrial activities can pollute rivers which are a source of water for daily needs and affect the development of biota in them. This can affect river water quality

The buildup of surface pollutants has been shown to be a controlling factor in the quality of storm water runoff. In industrial areas particularly, atmospheric fallout is an important component of surface pollutant loadings. Storm water runoff models presently in use do not consider the physics of atmospheric dustfall.Industries, vehicle exhausts, and blowing of wind over unprotected surfaces all introduce pollutants to the atmosphere. Redistribution of this material on the ground depends on local topography and prevailing meteorological conditions. The location of the industrial areas; the direction, velocity, and duration of wind; total precipitation; and source concentrations are important parameters in the prediction of atmospheric dustfall. The paper describes the physical processes of atmospheric fallout that are relevant to water quality modelling. A new model, called ATMDST, to predict dustfall on individual subcatchments in a metropolitan area using prevailing meteorological conditions is developed based on statistical methods. Results from average, one-variable and two-variable linear regression models were statistically compared with observed data. Finally, ATMDST is interfaced with the storm water management model version 3 (SWMM3) to compute runoff water quality. The model is applied to Hamilton, Ontario. Key words: atmospheric dustfall, air pollution, urban runoff, water quality, pollutant buildup, environmental modelling.
