The invention described herein is that of an outdoor drain filter useful for maintaining the operability of an outdoor drain despite the accumulation of debris that would otherwise obstruct the outdoor drain, resulting in flood prevention of surrounding areas. The outdoor drain filter of the present invention is placed above and around an existing outdoor drain or may be integral with a drain cover or drain reservoir. The outdoor drain filter comprises upper and side filtration means allowing the free flow of water therethrough. The outdoor drain filter further comprises a diverter comprising at least one air vent and at least one lateral pipe that defines a maximum water level to which water will accumulate around the outdoor drain before being diverted into the drain through the diverter. The outdoor drain filter may a manufactured unit or of modular construction.

Stormwater inlets and stormwater inlet seals are disclosed. The stormwater inlet seal can include a first section and a second section. The first section and/or second section at least partially defines an opening in the stormwater inlet seal. The first section can be pivotally connected to the second section about an edge of the first section. The first section can be moveable between a first position in which the first section is biased towards a closed position to direct fluid towards the opening and a second position which allows access to the inlet. A stormwater inlet with a first section that is pivotally connected to a sidewall is also disclosed.

A method of removing sediment from fluid flow within a storm water drain pit by deflecting flow entering the pit towards the side walls of the pit by one or more deflectors. This reduces the energy of the fluid flow and promotes settling of sediment within the catch pit. Each deflector is preferably of a concave form and may be located in a storm water drain pit bag or suspended. A removable catch basin receptacle for a storm water drain pit includes a container has a low flow outlet defining a fluid path for fluid at a first level within the container to a second level, higher than the first level, outside the container. An overflow path provides a fluid flow path out of the container at a level higher than the first or second level.

Stormwater inlets and stormwater inlet seals are disclosed. The stormwater inlet seal can include a first section and a second section. The first section and/or second section at least partially defines an opening in the stormwater inlet seal. The first section can be pivotally connected to the second section about an edge of the first section. The first section can be moveable between a first position in which the first section is biased towards a closed position to direct fluid towards the opening and a second position which allows access to the inlet. A stormwater inlet with a first section that is pivotally connected to a sidewall is also disclosed.

An inlet filter and method of use are disclosed. In one aspect, the inlet filter comprises a frame, filter material, a feed stream inlet, and a filtrate outlet. The frame is configured so an exterior of the frame is shaped like a wedge. The frame comprises a thick portion and a narrow portion opposite the thick portion. The thick portion of the frame comprises the feed stream inlet. The filter material is positioned along a bottom surface of the frame and a portion of an upper surface of the frame that is opposite the feed stream inlet in the narrow portion of the frame. In another aspect, the method comprises inserting an inlet filter into a storm sewer inlet. The inlet filter can be one of a plurality of inlet filters inserted into the storm sewer inlet, the filters cooperating to filter a feed stream entering the storm sewer inlet.

The present invention discloses a filtration system for treating untreated liquid such as greywater or any liquid that is contaminated with impurity and is required to be treated before use. The filtration system is a gravity fed liquid treatment system and includes components such as a top liquid tank for holding untreated liquid and a bottom liquid tank for holding treated liquid. The filtration system further includes one or more filtration media containers and filtration columns. Each filtration column is a composition of the stacked filtration media containers. The filtration system may be used for cleaning the contaminated water or keeping clear the surface of open water from oil or the like floating materials by separating or removing these materials from the water. The filtration system may include portable or detachable small-scale multistage treatment devices and may be implemented using household-type filters for producing potable filtration system.

The present disclosure provides an apparatus for preventing offensive odors for a drain port, the apparatus including: a plate that is formed in a plate shape so that it can be stably attached to the upper part of a drain manhole, and has a through hole formed in the center; a drain pipe that is connected to the through hole in the lower direction of the plate, is bent laterally from the lower direction, and has a shape in which an end is cut diagonally; and a shielding film that is connected by a hinge to the end of the drain pipe, is opened by rainwater or sewage discharged from the drain pipe, or is closed by a load. With such a configuration, a drain pipe is formed to guide rainwater, and a shielding film that is opened by rainwater or closed by a load is provided at the end part of the drain pipe, thereby preventing offensive odors generated from the drain port and also preventing insects from flowing into the drain port.

Disclosed in the present application is a system for a storm water and traffic collector box culvert. The system may comprise a plurality of reinforced slabs with an upper slab that may be configured as a reinforced surface to collect storm water runoff. The plurality of slabs may be connected by a plurality of attachment mechanisms. Accordingly, the present system is directed to an environmentally friendly culvert design that can minimize the magnitude of earthworks required by traditional drainage systems while also providing increased drainage capabilities.

A storm water capture and filtration system may secure in a catch basin or other area subject to flows of water from streets, channels, and the like as a result of run off from storms. A filter system may include a capture portion including attachment mechanisms, a funnel, various supports, and a filter hanger designed and calculated to capture all water entering a storm water inlet and directing it toward a bag filter. A gap is provided between a funnel and filter hanger in order to provide accommodation for overflow, while an anti-backflow skirt on the filter bag resists flushing of captured pollution out of the bag in overflow condition.

A water inlet protection system and apparatus for removing sediment and/or chemical from water or other fluids is provided. The system may include a filtration material that is configured to be water permeable and to collect sediment within the water. The system may be configured to be removably secured to various types of storm drains or water inlets. The system may include a frame configured to be removably attached to a storm grate. The frame may also include a plurality of tabs extending from the frame and be slidably adjustable. The system may also include an s-clip member or magnets for removably securing the filtration material to a storm drain or water inlet. Furthermore, the water inlet protection system may include one or more over-flow protection openings. The over-flow protection openings may include a raised member or barrier to regulate the water level where over-flow occurs.
