Stormwater Treatment
Removing Sediment and Solids from Runoff
Stormwater and site runoff carry sediment, grit and associated pollutants. Plate settlers clarify high, intermittent flows in a compact footprint before discharge or reuse.
Stormwater Treatment
Runoff from urban areas, industrial sites and construction generates large, intermittent flows carrying suspended sediment, grit, and adsorbed pollutants such as metals and hydrocarbons. Discharge permits increasingly require solids removal before release to watercourses.
Plate settlers are well suited to stormwater because they clarify high flows in a small footprint and cope with the intermittent, surge-driven nature of runoff. With coagulation, they capture fine sediment that would otherwise pass a simple settling pond.
Containerized and rental plate settler units are frequently used for temporary stormwater and construction-site treatment.
Key Benefits
High Peak Flows
Clarifies surge-driven runoff in a compact high-rate unit.
Fine Sediment Capture
With coagulation, removes fine particles a settling pond misses.
Temporary Options
Containerized and rental units suit construction and short-term needs.
