The increase in impervious areas caused by urbanization causes the amount of surface rainfall-runoff and nonpoint source (NPS) pollutant discharge to also increase. This issue has sparked a growing interest in low impact development (LID) technology and NPS reduction technology. The objective of this study is to analyze the ability of a hybrid system to achieve both rainfall-runoff and NPS pollutant reduction simultaneously. The results indicate that this system is effective in reducing particulate matter with a relatively small particle size (less than 64 μm), which plays an important role in reducing NPS pollution. It is expected that a LID-based urban water cycle recovery policy could be established through further research on various hybrid system configuration methods and socioeconomic effect analysis.
