Communities must find a reliable and effective way to prevent weather-related combined sewer overflow (CSO) and sanitary sewer overflow (SSO) from spilling directly into nearby waterways. While a separate treatment system for CSO/SSO concerns is viable for some plants, others do not have the footprint or funding for a single-use system. The WWETCO FlexFilter™ system meets both of these concerns with a simple, gravity-fed process that plants can use for both daily primary or tertiary treatment and unpredictable wet-weather treatment to remove total suspended solids (TSS).
