To improve the quality of rainwater, the rainwater
management system (1) is adapted to have fluid communication between a rainwater source (45) and a well means (95), and includes a
filtration means (20) and comprises at least one rainwater inlet means (40) adapted to receive rainwater from the rainwater source (45), at least one inlet
sump means (5) adapted to receive rainwater from the rainwater inlet means (40), physically and / or chemically treat the rainwater, and
discharge the inlet
sump water downstream of the rainwater inlet means (40), a biofiltration means (10) adapted to receive at least a portion of the inlet
sump water from the inlet sump means (5), physically and / or chemically treat the inlet sump water, and
discharge the biofiltered water downstream of the inlet sump means (5), and the same structure (135) as the inlet sump means (5). The
system includes at least one outflow sump means (15) located within the
system, which is adapted to receive at least a portion of the biofiltered water from the biofiltration means (10), physically and / or chemically treat the biofiltered water, and
discharge the outflow sump water downstream of the outflow sump means (15) into a well means (95); and at least one sensor means (25), and / or at least one control means (30), and / or at least one communication means (35) for sensing, controlling, receiving and / or transmitting data representing at least the physical and / or chemical properties of the rainwater, inflow sump water, biofiltered water, outflow sump water, rainwater inlet means (40), inflow sump means (5), biofiltration means (10), and / or outflow sump means (15).
