Ecosol - Gross Pollutant Trap (GPT)
The Ecosol GPT (in-line end-of-line stormwater treatment solution) is a non-blocking, wet sump, tangential filtration system that has designed been specifically designed to filter pollutants conveyed in stormwater conduits by capturing and retaining all contaminants larger than 3mm up to a designed treatable flow rate (TFR). It can play and integral role in reducing pollution in urbanised catchments and help reduce the footprint of a total stormwater treatment train by providing essential pre-screening for downstream secondary and tertiary treatment systems.
Developed in 1996 and tested by the University of South Australia and also EngTest the commercial consulting division of the Adelaide University it remains today one of the most widely recognised and used stormwater primary treatment systems. Today as part of our continual product improvement program the modern Ecosol GPT is designed to provide high pollutant retention rates with little hydraulic impact on the drainage infrastructure.
Easily installed, the pre-cast, modular GPTs can be fitted to conduits of almost any size and shape, either within the drainage network or off-line adjacent to creeks or in open channels. Its range of applications include industrial and commercial sites, such as car parks, shopping centers, and wash down bays, residential developments, airports, freeways and as essential pre-screening for downstream secondary and tertiary treatment systems such as bio-retention or media filtration systems.
