  Innovative Solution for High Integrity Containment
   
 

The disruptions caused by material shortages during the COVID-19 pandemic prompted specifiers and construction contractors to explore alternative materials for various applications. Materials like fiberglass reinforced polymer (FRP) pipe, cast in place concrete, and precast tanks, typically used for containment, are facing extended lead times. Amidst this challenge, DuroMaxx® SRPE emerges as an important solution for containment needs, offering cost-effectiveness and mitigating schedule impacts caused by supply shortages in the market for FRP, CIP, and precast concrete containment tanks.

  Tackling Tailwater Challenges: Optimizing Hydrodynamic Separator Performance
   
 

Hydrodynamic separators are primarily designed to treat stormwater runoff by removing pollutants such as sediment, debris, oil, and grease. They are typically installed to improve water quality before it enters receiving bodies such as rivers, lakes, oceans, or groundwater systems. Requirements are simple: the inlet and outlet pipes are sized in accordance with the flow, the hydrodynamic separator is sized in accordance with the pollutant removal, and water is allowed to flow freely from the inlet to the outlet of the system. But what happens when tailwater conditions obstruct the flow?
