Up Flo Filter

The New Direction is Up

The Up-Flo Filter is a high rate, modular system that combines a patented upward flow path with a unique Drain Down design.

Designed to pioneer the evolution of stormwater treatment in the UK the Up-Flo Filter targets a wide range of pollutants including floatable debris, fine sediments, nutrients, metals, oils and grease, organics and bacteria.

Applications:

• Retrofit to standard manhole configurations.
• Suitable for installation into large chamber installations.

Advantages:

• Multiple treatment train - settling, screening and filtration.
• The upward flow path ensures the entire surface and depth of the treatment media is utilised.
• Patented Drain Down system ensures the filter media is above water levelbetween storm events, greatly reducing the risk of filter media degredation, harmful bacteria growth and leaching of pollutants.
• Minimal footprint - highest per module filtration rate in industry.
• Modular design.
• Developed using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling as well as full and pilot-scale testing to maximise flow distribution.
