There is further provided a plastic base plate for use with a plastic infiltration unit. There is further provided a plastic infiltration unit side plate. There is yet further provided a plastic in filtration system for deployment underground comprising a plastic infiltration unit and a plastic base plate, wherein the at least one pillar of the plastic infiltration unit is received at the receiving location of the plastic base plate.

A connector for axially fixing a module or support of a module to an elongate pipe has a central web with a rear flange extending from a rear edge and a front web extending from a front edge. The web may be partially cylindrical with the flanges extending radially. The web is sized and shaped to mate with the outer surface of the cylindrical pipe and extend through a hole in the module support with the rear web against the rear face of the support and the front web against the front face of the support. A fabric layer is wrapped around the outside to conceal the support and connector. A fluid treatment unit with spaced apart modules utilizes the connector to fix the modules axially to the pipe with a fabric layer concealing the support and connector.

The subject of the application relates generally to the field of drainage elements, typically drainage channels, and covers thereof, as well as mixtures for production of such covers. Embodiments may include drainage element covers, meeting functional (water permeability, slip resistance, abrasion resistance, hygienic safety, strength, resistance to frost, etc.) as well as aesthetic requirements, and which would be suitable for applications in exteriors as well as interiors, and further propose a mixture for production of such drainage element covers. Functional and aesthetic requirements may be achieved by means of a mixture for producing drainage element covers, comprising aggregate and/or milled glass pulp and binder, and further comprising thixotropic additive.

A modular storm water retention system and method for exemplary uses collecting and temporarily retaining storm water run-off. The system includes a plurality of modular retaining units which are selectively connected together to form an interior chamber volume for collecting storm water run-off directed into the chamber volume. A plurality of modular trays are engaged with the top portions of the respective retention units to prevent relative movement of the retention units and eliminate, or substantially reduce, the need for porous material to be installed in and around the retention units greatly increasing the excavation void space usable for water collection and retention. The trays further support the backfill material and prevent passage of the backfill material into the void space below the trays.

A warning device for detecting water level in drainage well includes at least one level sensor and a transceiver. The level sensor includes an antenna and a first processing unit connected to the antenna. The first processing unit controls the antenna to transmit a signal to the transceiver as to increased fluid levels. The transceiver includes a first communication module and a second processing unit, the first communication module receives the signal and the second processing unit obtains the signal from the first communication module and determines the location of the level sensor and its urgency according to whether the signal decays or disappears because of inundation by drainage fluid. The second processing unit further sends information of the target level sensor to a terminal device.

A culvert pipe inlet arrangement includes a pan member and an inlet that is configured to be disposed within a culvert pipe is disclosed.

A water-salt regulation system for coastal regions, including an irrigation canal, a plurality of drainage channels, and a shaft. The irrigation canal is arranged on a surface farmland. The drainage channels are provided inside a soil. The irrigation canal and the drainage channels are inclined from inland to sea. The shaft is provided with a water port at which a sluice gate is provided. An inner peripheral wall of the water drainage channel is provided with a plurality of filter mesh frames with an accommodating cavity. A filter filling material is provided inside the accommodating cavity. The shaft is provided with a salinity sensor. The shaft has a first state with the sluice gate on the drainage channel closed and a second state with the sluice gate on the drainage channel opened. A water-salt regulation is also provided.

Individual honeycomb shaped modules used in an assembly for underground storage of storm water and other fluid storage needs. Modules are assembled into a resultant honeycomb shape for maximized structural strength and material use efficiency. Internal hexagonal or square shaped modules are assembled and encased by external hexagonal or square shaped modules. Internal adjacent modules are in direct fluid communications with one another through a channel-less chamber. Internal hexagonal or square shaped modules drain into external hexagonal or square shaped modules chamber where fluid is either stored or drained. Assemblies include various top and side pieces along with access ports for entry into said assembly.

A water catchment and lawn edging system includes a cap, a channeled drain fixture, and at least one base clip. The base clip, which connects the system to the ground surface, is connected to a bottom end of the channeled drain fixture. Depending upon the length or the profile of the channeled drain fixture, the system can utilize a single base clip or a plurality of base clips to properly support the system. The cap is continuously connected along the channeled drain fixture from a top end of the channeled drain fixture. The cap may include a plurality of drain openings to provide additional drainage for the system. Collectively, the cap, the channeled drain fixture, and the base clip function as a water catchment and lawn edging system so that surface and ground water can be drained and filtered away from a collecting area and discharged into an outfall.

Described herein is a method of controlling soil moisture, water accumulation and fertilizer distribution in land. Elevation location data for land areas are extracted from two or more pixels of a topographic image including topographic data. Each pixel represents a land area. Wetness indices for the land areas are determined from the elevation and location data, based on the slope between two or more defined areas of land and an upslope contributing area per unit contour length. At risk defined areas of land, e.g., those at risk of accumulating water are identified based on wetness indices. Water is transported from the at risk defined areas of land to another location. The transporting of water reduces the risk of accumulating water in the at risk defined areas of land and improves crop growth potential in those areas.
