Management practices for micropollutant control in road runoff
Management practices for the control of micropollutants found in road runoff: from the “invention” of technical solutions to the “design” of innovative practices.
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.
Common sources of pollution from construction sites
Hear our experts share common sources of pollution on construction sites, including pathways of how silt and sediment can be washed off sites into water courses and how they impact aquatic life.
Trapping and retaining silt in streams
Learn about how Silt Mats™ can be deployed directly in channels downstream of earth moving or silt disturbance activities to trap and retain silt and prevent pollution.

Silt management on the Afon Gwili
We used a range of products including: Floc Mat®, Silt Net, Bubble Tubing®, Silt Mat™ and Silt Wattles on this sensitive river project.
Flood & Coast conference
Visit our technical team and stand at this renowned conference.
Removing silt from surface water
Leela, our Technical Director, explains how sediments and silts can be removed from surface waters using our flocculants.
Managing invasive weeds and litter
A bubble barrier created with Bubble Tubing® can be used in high value aquatic environments to prevent floating weed and litter from entering managed areas such as moorings.
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.
