Stormwater Filter Media
Up flo filter is an advanced stormwater best management practice bmp that combines sedimentation and screening with filtration to capture sediment oils heavy metals and nutrients from stormwater runoff achieving total suspended solids tss removal rates of up to 98.
Stormwater filter media. More information is available in the stormfilter configuration guide. Our stormwater filter medias can be used alone or mixed with other components to form a media designed for specific pollutant removals. Stormwater media filter designed to remove sediment phosphorous metal and other pollutants the bayfilter is a state of the art stormwater filter designed to effectively remove pollutants such as total suspended solids tss phosphorus metals nitrogen trash and hydrocarbons. Stormwater filtering system capture and temporarily store the wqvand pass it through a filter bed of sand organic matter soil or other media.
A combination of media is often recommended to maximize pollutant removal. It shouldn t cost a fortune to do what s right. Finer gradations of media are capable of removing more pollutants but must operate at a lower hydraulic loading rate to avoid premature clogging and excessive maintenance. Take control of your stormwater project our product line includes catch basin filters media filters membrane filters and specialty filters like the downspout filter.
The bayfilter is configured in a compound spiral media which allows for a large filter surface area in a compact footprint. Media filters also referred to as filters in this section are structures or excavated areas containing a layer of sand compost organic material peat or other filter media. Our bayfilter media filter cartridge system is our ongoing commitment to state of the art stormwater treatment. Bio clean s portfolio also includes various filtration media hydrodynamic separators screening devices underground storage systems and various biological filtration systems.
Media filters utilized for stormwater treatment are able to remove fine silt particles as well as soluble metals and nutrients. Recently perlite zeolite carbon and other exotic media have expanded the choices for targeting specific pollutants. A variety of different filter media have a long track record of successful use for stormwater filtration including sand peat and compost. Click pollutant for details about results as always all of the details that we claim are published and available.
Our filtration products can be customized using different filter media to target site specific pollutants. Filtered runoff may be collected and returned to the conveyance system or allowed to partially exfiltrate into.
