Stormtration™ Char21™ Heavy Metal Stormwater Filter Sock

Description Do you have any of these problems with your current pollutant stormwater filtering socks: Maybe only last a month or two before they stop filtering out pollutants? Degrade or become moldy & smelly within months of sitting on your shelf? Extremely heavy and difficult to deploy? Not very effective at capturing multiple pollutants? Made from unsustainable or inconsistent materials? Extremely low flow rates that cause ponding or flooding? To solve these problems, we came up with a better blend of filtering media. Stormtration™ Char21™ Filter Socks contain the following blend of proven pollutant-capturing components: Chopped Switchgrass: This sustainable, bulk cellulose component is un-composted, which gives it a longer shelf life than most socks on the market. As it biodegrades over time, its affinity for locking in pollutants actually increases. Biochar: Large chunk (not powdered) hardwood bio-char with at least 80% carbon content that holds together longer for more pollutant removal over time. Re-Activated Carbon: Recycled activated carbon that has been re-baked at a production facility and brought back to at least a 95% effectiveness. Calcium Silicate Aggregate (CSA): A processed version of “slag.” This inert, fine-grain powder helps increase pH; and is a proven way to precipitate out heavy metals. Key Features of Stormtration™ Char21™ Filter Socks: Shelf Stability: Socks can be warehoused for months with no moldy or smelly side effects. Lightweight: About half the weight of typical socks, allowing for more socks per pallet and easier installation by field technicians. Consistency: The same four ingredients are blended in the same proportions each time. Silt and Pollution Retention: The Stormtration™ Char21™ blend captures sediment, heavy metals, oils & fuels. Longevity: Designed to perform for up to one year. High Flow Rates: Sock can sustain a maximum flow of 24 gallons per minute (GPM). Flexibility: Easily conforms around storm drains, dumpsters, ditches and outfalls. Heavy Metal Capture: Sock captures cadmium, zinc, nickel, chromium, copper and other metals. Sustainable & Natural Materials: Blend of media is made from natural, sustainable & inert materials.
