Proprietary Water Quality Technology Sediment Capture Performance with CFD
Gravitational Separation Device: The Catchpit
Forces Acting on a Particle in a Simple Linear Sedimentation Chamber or Catchpit (where Fd = drag and Fg = gravity)
• Gravitational sedimentation • Quiescent conditions • Linear tanks, gullies and catchpits
Fg
Fd

Proprietary Water Quality Technology Sediment Capture Performance with CFD
Forces Acting on a Particle in a Hydrodynamic Vortex Separation Chamber
(where Fd = drag and Fg = gravity Adding Fc = Centrifugal Force)
• Enhanced gravitational sedimentation • Harness rotational behaviour • Extends flow path and chance to settle • Reduced footprint and cost • Low headloss separation • Base flow sweeps sediment into sump
Advanced Hydrodynamic Vortex Separation
