To investigate the effect of permeable pavement surface materials (PPSMs) on the influences of pollutant removal in urban storm runoff, six commonly used PPSMs (porous asphalt, porous concrete, cement brick, ceramic brick, sand base brick, and shale brick) were selected and the research was carried out by batch and column experiments. Results indicated that in batch experiments, except for the shale brick, most of the PPSM will release different pollutants continuously with the contact time increasing. Compared with other materials, porous asphalt and ceramic brick could increase the concentration of pollutants in the runoff greatly. With the contact time increased to 48 h, the concentration of NO3-N and TN increased to 13.0 and 23.1 mg/L for ceramic brick and 13.3 and 32.3 mg/L for porous asphalt, respectively. This is mainly due to the artificial activity that accelerates the wear of the PPSM. Furthermore, results showed that PPSM could eliminate pollutants and influenced the removal efficiency greatly in column experiments. Most PPSMs have a noticeable purification effect on different pollutants, among them the purification effect of porous asphalt is the best. The concentrations of COD, NH3-N, and TN are 139.6, 1.32, and 7.79 mg/L in the effluent, respectively. These results may be attributed to the relatively stable environment in column experiments which is more suitable for the removal of pollutants. This study could offer new insight into the transformation of pollutants in damaged PPSM and provide useful guidelines for the better design of permeable pavement system.
