Deploying Gel Flocculant

Blocks can be placed directly in flowing ditches or drains, or inserted into a Pipe Reactor or Clearflow GFR system for pumped applications.

All deployments are supported by our specialist technical team using site specific calculations and Settlement Tests to ensure correct dosage, installation and maintenance. We also offer videos and CAD drawings – see the installation tab of our product page.

Gel Flocculant can be used at any stage of project, however it is most effective when we are involved early on. Early engagement allows our technical team to plan correctly and take a process driven approach to specification; saving money, time, reducing carbon and protecting the environment. Reactive use is also possible, but always follows a structured process to ensure correct usage and efficacy.

Most silt settles within seconds, as the flocculation process dramatically accelerates particulate settling and enables clean discharge in line with regulatory requirements. Watch our video showing one of our settlement tests in action.

Yes. Gel Flocculant is a non toxic, regulator approved technology that has been independently validated as safe for aquatic environments. Correct specification through a Settlement Test ensures effective treatment without risk of overdosing.

Yes. We regularly support clients with on-site assessments, installation advice, pollution prevention training and compliance planning.

• In-ditch Polishing Point: consists of just Floc Mats, Silt Mats and Silt Wattles for a capturing and separating silt from flowing water. It is designed to ‘polish’ the water rather than our other treatment alternatives better designed for bulk drop out.
• In-ditch Treatment Point: includes the use of Gel Flocculant to bind fine silt particles to treat the water, as well as our mats which capture the suspended material while the surface water flows over them.
