Abstract

Apparatus and method for the treatment of storm water runoff to remove contaminants that accumulate in the storm water when it flows over paved surfaces in urban areas. The apparatus includes a basket (B) that has an outer surrounding water-permeable wall (10) and an inner water-permeable wall (12), spaced from and surrounded by the outer wall (10). A bed (14) of an absorbent, able to absorb contaminants in the storm water, is disposed in the space between the outer and inner walls, while allowing fluid communication between the walls. An inner drainage space (20) is defined by the inner wall and is in fluid communication with the absorbent and with an outlet for treated water for the basket (B). During operation, a siphon effect is induced causing storm water to be drawn through the bed (14) into the inner space (20), and thence to the drainage conduit (46).
