Water pollution control solution:
TenCate GeoClean^® Origin oil-biodegrading aquatextile.

Function:
Cleans the collected runoff water from hydrocarbons.

Context:
The creation of a new commercial area with a 120 slots car park, roads for restaurants requires an appropriate stormwater management. The low permeability subsoil allows only a limited amount of rain water to infiltrate.

Design:
Runoff water from the impervious pavement, polluted by hydrocarbon leaks from the traffic, is collected by several gullies and sent to a network of pipes to a buried retention basin of about 30 m x 1 m x 6 m. The basin consists of an Ultra-Light Alveolar Structure made with crates bathed at the bottom and on its sides into a body of a draining gravel.

The oil-biodegrading aquatextile is installed at the interface between the Ultra-Light Alveolar Structure and the draining gravel.
