FiltaBinTM was developed and patented by Bioaction to provide an effecient and cost effective solution for operators and contractors to safely manage industrial and environmental wastewater and reduce the incidence of potential environmental contamination.
The applications for on-site filtration includes:
- Infrastructure manholes and in-ground manway accesses
- Drainage pits
- Retention and settlement ponds
- Liftwells
- De-watering contaminated sites
- Oil tank retention tanks and bunds
The system offers significant cost benefits over traditional wastewater removal costs, hazardous waste disposal costs and the reduction of downtime.
Designed to use standard skip bin transport, the FiltaBinTM can be delivered directly to the waste processing point.
Flow Rate and Capacity
FiltaBinTM has been designed for simple site management. Flow rates and capacity can be managed by untrained staff. Inflow is predetermined by a control restrictor which allows the wastewater to be pumped with a range of pumping options.
FiltaBinTM can be setup in series to increase capacity, or in parallel to increase flow volume. Once set, all operate at the same rate. One bin processes up to 200L/min, with an overall capacity of 300,000L depending on contaminate and loading.
FiltaMediaTM Organic Filter Media
Bioaction have advanced the application of organic media for a range of environmental filtration applications. FiltaBinTM has been designed to apply this media, and the “bottom-up” filter design means that there is even infiltration throughout the filter bed to maximise the contact time with the media.
Further advances have been made in amending the filter media for specific filtration needs. These amendments are natural mineral and organic inputs that match the media so not to create stratas or disaggregation.
Reduce Environmental Contamination
FiltaBinTM minimises the risk of environmental contamination, which is a responsibilty of any contractor or operator.
FiltaBinTM provides a significant management process to manage risk and deal with many of the common wastewater contaminates:
- Hydrocarbons
- Ammonium
- Organic
- High level BOD's
- Acid Sulphate Soil leachate
- Suspended solids
