CleanWayPaper Recycling Facility

Problem:

A high volume paper products recycling center undertook a major site overhaul at their facility for their growing business. The scope of work included a new stormwater filtration vault which was the only stormwater treatment device they had permit approval for. The owners of the facility were familiar with filtration vault systems as they had the same type of system installed at other sites. They were also experienced and knew that filtration vault systems can quickly become plugged by paper debris washed into the catch basins every time it rains.

With the hassles of confined space entry, the cost of pumping out the vault, plus the high cost of replacement filter cartridges, they were seeking methods to reduce the maintenance costs of their filter vault system.

Solution:

They chose CleanWay® catch basin filtration inserts for pretreatment in front of the vault to reduce maintenance expenses. The owners selected CleanWay catch basin inserts because of their low initial cost along with their simple installation and maintenance. With the high efficiency of the inserts, they haven’t had to service the filter vault during two years of continuous operation.
