Challenge
A Houston-based chemical company had consistent issues with high amounts of suspended solids in their storm water. The run-off collected on-site would foul up their treatment facility which reduced their capacity for treatment. As a result, our customer would have to rent extra containers to divert excess flow. Do to the storm water build up; the customer needed a solution as soon as possible.
Solution
Envent engineers addressed this emergency issue with a mobile sand filter system that was capable of handling the required flow and suspended solid concentration. The engineered system required minimal supervision because of automatic back-flushing and redundant features.
Benefit
The mobile system allowed us to maneuver in to place quickly providing the immediate response to the customer’s issue. The system easily connected upstream and in-line to the customer’s treatment facility, the sand filter system removed 90% of the solids which enabled the treatment facility to perform more efficiently without the need for additional water storage.
