Water Decontaminator

The Water Decontaminator TCU

The Water Decontaminator Trash Capture Unit (WD-TCU) is a catch basin insert filter system that treats stormwater keeping contaminants out of the storm drain system. This is a certified full capture system for trash treatment. See approval letter on the California Water Boards website under Inventive Resources: www.waterboards.ca.gov

Basic Problem

Runoff from streets and parking lots carry trash, leaves, sediment, oils and heavy metals into the storm drain. These contaminants clog up the catch basin, storm drain pipes and eventually pollute our rivers and streams.

In most cases stormwater can be treated before it leaves the site. There are many options for this treatment. Most of these are large and expensive vaults and separation systems that require intensive maintenance regimens and large footprints. Catch Basin Insert Filter

Introducing The Water Decontaminator Trash Capture Unit

The WD-TCU is a full flow through filter system. Low water flow rates entering the catch basin flows through a large filter cartridge with multiple layers of filtration and low absorbent media. In the case of high flow rain events water overflows the housing preventing flooding.

The filter cartridge holds 1,200 cubic inches of filter media. This is highly effective in removing sediment, oils and heavy metals. As well as most other contaminants entering the storm drain. See the individual products pages for more information on the catch basin insert filter as well as our other filter systems.
