Technical Information

The calm during the storm

When it rains, oils, sediment and other contaminants are washed from paved surfaces directly into our storm water drains and waterways. Non-point source pollution such as stormwater now accounts for 80% of water pollution in North America and governments are responding with demanding regulations to protect our water resources.

Removing more pollutants

Stormceptor removes more pollutants from stormwater than any other separator.

  • Maintains continuous positive treatment of total suspended solids (TSS) year-round, regardless of flow rate
  • Designed to remove a wide range of particle sizes (from 20 to 2,000 microns), as well as free oils, heavy metals and nutrients that attach to fine sediment
  • Can be designed to remove a specific particle size distribution (PSD)

A calm treatment environment

  • Stormceptor slows incoming stormwater to create a non-turbulent treatment environment, allowing free oils and debris to rise, and sediments to settle
  • Patented scour prevention technology ensures pollutants are captured and contained during all rainfall events, even extreme storms

PCSWMM for Stormceptor - leading the industry

The most accurate, easy to use sizing program available.

  • This continuous simulation modeling software combines up-to-date local rainfall data from hundreds of stations across North America with a selection of particle sizes to size the best system for your site
  • Developed with Computational Hydraulics International (CHI), internationally acclaimed expert, Dr. Bill James and Imbrium Systems

Proven performance

  • Recent tests conducted for the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) found Stormceptor has the highest TSS removal rate of seven stormwater treatment technologies tested
  • During NJDEP's rigorous testing, Stormceptor did not scour with the unit loaded to design capacity
  • Stormceptor's performance is backed by Canada's stringent Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) Program

With over 20,000 units operating worldwide, Stormceptor performs and protects every day, in every storm.
