Initial total metal concentrations for experimental runs Stark 1, Stark 2, and Stark 3 measured at the inlet of the filtration unit. All samples below the detection limit were given the value of half the detection limit. Only the traffic metals that are of concern regarding the violation of reuse and disposal guidelines are listed. All units are µg/L (ppb).
