The STORM WATER™ is an in-ground hydrocarbon separator specially designed to provide continuous filtration of drainage water while retaining 100% of the hydrocarbons released from large basins or retention volumes The STORM WATER™ is a product designed to fit easily into your pit drains or in remote pit outlets. Designed and developed in the 1990's with the PETRO BARRIER™, the STORM WATER consists of an aluminum frame and a welded cylindrical or rectangular filter cartridge. The STORM WATER™ is therefore installed vertically at your low point of your polluted water discharge. The STORM WATER™ is thus made up of 2 distinct sub-components, or chambers: - The upper part of the STORM WATER™, through which fluids (water, dielectric oils, or hydrocarbons) or inlet chamber, is made up of several anti-debris filters and pre-filters, in order to avoid clogging of the active part of the STORM WATER - The secondary chamber, or active anti-hydrocarbon filter, is made of aluminum. This cartridge acts as a hydrocarbon separator and is made of a hydrophobic and oleophilic compound that saturates and solidifies when in contact with oils and hydrocarbons, but also natural or synthetic esters. The lower part under the STORM WATER, then becomes a draining chamber, where the clean water is collected at the filter outlet, to evacuate it to your water network or directly into the environment. In fact, in all our tests for over 30 years, the water leaving the SPI filters has hydrocarbon concentrations of less than 5 ppm.
