Disclosed herein is a device for improving water quality, said device comprising: an inlet for inflow of liquid into the device; a hydraulic circuit for receiving liquid from the inlet, the hydraulic circuit comprising at least a first tank and a second tank, wherein the first tank is upstream of the second tank and wherein one of said first and second tanks is nested within the other of said first and second tanks; an outlet at a downstream end of the hydraulic circuit for discharge of liquid from the device; one or more contaminant separation elements in the hydraulic circuit for separation of contaminants from liquid passing therethrough using at least one of: gravitational separation; sized-based filtration; chemical separation; magnetic separation; electrolytic separation; and adsorption or attraction-based separation, wherein the first tank is a settlement tank for gravitational settlement of contaminants from the liquid.

A sedimentation device for material which is contained in fluid, in particular rainwater, includes a sedimentation insert (12) which in the position of use is inserted into a shaft element (12), wherein the sedimentation insert (12) includes a run-in chamber, said run-in chamber being delimited by a run-in chamber side wall (20) which provided with a lateral run-in opening (19) and on its lower side having an outlet opening (23), wherein a flow-breaking device (24) for breaking the flow of a fluid flow which is produced in a throughflow direction (26) between the run-in opening (19) and a run-out opening (25) is assigned to the outlet opening (23), and wherein the sedimentation insert includes a run-out chamber (32) which annularly surrounds the run-in chamber (18) and which is delimited by an inner run-out chamber side wall, a base (33) and an outer run-out chamber side wall (34), wherein the run-out opening (25) is formed on the delimitation of the run-out chamber (32) and wherein the outer run-out chamber side wall (34) is designed as a spillway (38).

A method, system, and apparatus directed to an innovative approach for the treatment of stormwater utilizing hydrodynamic separator assembly designed to maximize flow movement for more efficient sediment removal and maximize water flow control.

A system for diverting an adjustable number of liters of a first flush, which has a modular, in series or parallel configuration to expand the maximum adjustable capacity. Additionally, a rainwater collection system for delivery of said rainwater to a domestic system for use thereof. The system comprises first flush diverter, screening stage, filtering stages, buffering stage, settling/resting stage, disinfection and/or purification stage.

Provided is a mixing/clarifying device 100 including a coagulant feeder 10 that feeds coagulant to water to be treated to obtain coagulant-containing water and a tank 20 in which the coagulant-containing water is mixed to form a floc and solid-liquid separation is performed. The tank 20 includes an outer cylinder 21 having an inflow port 210 that flows the coagulant-containing water into the tank 20 and an inner cylinder 22 arranged inserted from the upper side of the tank 20 to the lower side of the inflow port of the outer cylinder 21 and having a lower end open in the tank 20.

A method and apparatus for preventing the escape of hazardous materials from fluid flow control systems of the character used by municipalities for carrying runoff storm water away from streets and populated areas.

An underground stormwater management system comprising a sediment settling chamber, a plurality of stormwater management cells, and a trash capturing net. The sediment settling chamber has a sediment settling chamber floor and a discharge port located at a higher elevation than the sediment settling chamber floor. The plurality of stormwater management cells are located adjacent each other, and each cell comprises a body portion and an internal region, and is adapted to permit passage of stormwater into and out of the internal region of such cell. The plurality of stormwater management cells combine to form a stormwater management chamber downstream of the sediment settling chamber and in fluid communication with the sediment settling chamber. The trash capturing net is at least partially located within the stormwater management chamber and is adapted and configured to capture trash and debris in stormwater discharged from the discharge port.

The present invention provides a storm water pretreatment chamber. The storm water pretreatment chamber includes: a base, an inlet sidewall, a first sidewall, a second sidewall, a filter sidewall, a handle, a first locking mechanism, a second locking mechanism, a first lifting cable, and a second lifting cable. Methods of treating storm water are also provided.
