The Ecosol Drop Trap is designed to provide essential pre-screening of stormwater flows by removing and retaining solid pollutants in stormwater flows on a range of pipelines. It consists of a pre-cast concrete pit containing an internal filtration/retention basket and overflow by-pass flaps. The unit is installed either in-line, or at the end of the stormwater line, where there is a drop between the upstream invert and downstream obvert levels of at least 600mm, and preferably more. This drop is needed so that the structure can house an adequately-sized basket.
The Ecosol Drop Trap is designed to treat 100% of the incoming flow and operates with little or no impact on the hydraulic performance of the upstream pipe. The patented overflow by-pass minimises any hydraulic headloss on the drainage network under a worst-case scenario, which is defined as a full design flow and a full capture basket.
The unit has a range of applications including:
- Industrial and commercial sites such as car parks and shopping centres;
- Residential developments;
- Freeways and civil construction projects; and
- Stormwater discharge points to wetlands, shorelines, creeks, and rivers.
Available in two different configurations and sizes to suit pipe diameters up to 600mm Ecosol can provide a client focused turnkey, design, manufacture, commissioning and maintenance service.
