How to prepare your site for winter shutdown: Managing water quality and pollution risks
Is your construction site prepared for its annual winter shutdown? Join our free webinar for top tips on staying compliant and avoiding incidents.
Zero carbon water treatment systems
In this article we share how our sustainable and practical zero carbon operation water treatment system can protect watercourses and reduce operational costs and carbon footprint for contractors.
Silt management on construction sites with constrained linear footprints
We make use of interceptor ditches to design passive, low carbon, rain-ready silt management systems for linear construction sites to prevent pollution.
Impacts of flocculation on sediment basin performance and design
This study evaluated a system consisting of three fibre check dams in a lined ditch discharging to sediment basins that differed in their configuration.
Flocculated sediments can reduce the size of sediment basin
Our results suggests that current sediment basin design could be modified when chemically-assisted settling is implemented, taking up less space and cost in construction sites.
Flocculated sediment and runoff quality improved by polyacrylamide
This study emphasises that the passive treatment of stormwater runoff using GPAM is a very effective method of flocculating sediments in turbid water.
Effects of Clearflow products on trout
Our Clearflow products have been subjected to extensive research in Canada where it has been demonstrated there is little or no impact on river trout.
Flocculant use on a construction site
Basic guidance for the construction industry about when to use a flocculant, what type of flocculant to use and how much of it to use, and advice on managing costs and risks when using flocculants on a construction site.
