  • MMVF man-made vitreous fibres
  • Storm water (e.g. rain, snow, sleet, hail and water run-off from residential and commercial areas) is collected and transported by storm water drain systems.
  • the storm water is channelled into the storm water system via storm water drain pits i.e. storm water drains in the ground, also called storm water gullies, wells, catch basins or storm water inlets.
  • Storm water drain systems typically have a number of storm water drain pits, which lead to a network of underground drain pipes. The storm water is collected by the storm water drain pits, filtered to remove particulates or debris and then transported to a desired location.

  • the vortex chamber is provided with an outlet (swirling discharge) connected to the sewer.
  • a filter element (sieve) is positioned in, and over the entire height of, the vortex chamber.
  • the filter element is preferably made of plastic. This system is disadvantageous because it can only capture very coarse particles: small particles can pass through the filter unobstructed.
  • EP3674493 discloses a gully having a sewer outlet configured to couple the gulley to a sewer system.
  • the gully further comprises at least one infiltration outlet being configured to transfer liquid in the gully to the ground around the gulley.
  • a filter element may be positioned in the gully infiltration outlets and is made from concrete. This filter is cleaned by using a pressure washer and/or a vacuum cleaner. As discussed above, this aggressive form of cleaning can result in damage to filters and might push the debris further into the pores of the filter, such that the functionality of the filter does not fully recover to its original capacity.

  • the filtering well can be connected to a standard storm water drain pit, already present in the ground.
  • Storm water therefore enters the standard storm water drain pit which preferably comprises a sand trap and a leaf catcher. Coarse filtration of e.g. leaves, twigs and sand occurs and the water is then directed into the filtering well, where finer filtration occurs through the MMVF filter. Once the water is filtered through the MMVF filter, it can then be directed to a storm water collection system for storage and later use, or infiltration into the surrounding ground. By decoupling the filtering well from the standard storm water drain pit, this means the filtering well does not need to be cleaned regularly. Instead, the storm water drain pit is cleaned in the usual manner (e.g.
  • the system of the present invention can prevent flooding and can store water for later use or disposal based on infrastructure already in place (i.e. the standard storm water drain pit) with minimal disruption to the surrounding ground during installation.
  • the system is flexible and decentralised, which means it can be installed at specific sites, for example around one standard storm water drain pit, rather than requiring an entire street to be excavated.
  • the system can be installed under existing roads or pavements, again minimising disruption during installation.
  • the filtering well has the combined purpose of filtration of storm water and ventilation of a storm water collection system.
  • Storm water enters the filtering well, is filtered, and exits via an outlet to a storm water collection system. Air displaced from the storm water collection system, as the filtered water enters, passes into the filtering well. This allows for the storm water collection system to fill quickly with water at times of heavy rainfall. It also maximises use of the storm water collection system by allowing the air to escape and water to take its place. Furthermore, it also reduces the disruption caused by installing water drainage and storm water collection systems in the ground, by combining two functions in one well.

  • the filter is easily removable from the filtering well so that it may be replaced when sufficiently fouled.
  • a key benefit of the filter in this case is to protect the storm water collection system from debris and contaminates. This is because the storm water collection system is typically buried underground and therefore it cannot easily be maintained or replaced. Having a removable MMVF filter that is separate to the storm water collection system means that it protects the collection system from contamination. This is particularly important when the storm water protection system is an infiltration system, and even more so when the infiltration system comprises drain elements formed from MMVF as discussed below. In this case, the filter protects the MMVF drain elements from fouling and contamination, and the surrounding ground from pollution. Having a separate filter is also important when the storm water filtration system is a self-contained storm water filtration system.

  • the guide secures the filter, which may or may not comprise a frame, to the filtering well.
  • the guide may be a rail into which the filter or filter and frame can be inserted.
  • the guide may act as a seal between the the edge of the filter or frame, and the sides of the filtering well. This reduces leakages around the edges of the filter (or frame), so that water (and dirt, particulates and contaminates) cannot leak from the input chamber into the output chamber without passing through the filter. This may ensure that all or most of the storm water passes through the filter and all or most of the water is thus filtered and the particulates and pollutants are removed.
  • the guide may also facilitate ease of removal and replacement of the filter.
  • the filtering well optionally comprises an air vent (8) that is in fluid communication with a storm water collection system, such that air displaced from the storm water collection system passes into the filtering well.
  • the filtering well may contain more than one air vent.
  • the air vent has an opening with a diameter in the range of 40 to 125 mm
  • the air vent is positioned in a side surface of the housing of the filtering well, preferably in the outlet chamber section.
  • the air vent is positioned higher in the filtering well than the outlet.
  • the air vent is positioned in the top half of the filtering well side surface, when in use. This ensures that the air vent can function even when the level of water in the filtering well is high.
  • Including the air vent in the filtering well is advantageous, as it combines two functions in one well: filtration and ventilation. By allowing air to pass from the storm water collection system to the filtering well, this maximises the amount of water that can be stored in the storm water collection system. Furthermore, this simplifies installation of the filter well and infiltration system, which means less disruption.
  • the air vent can also enable high flow rates through both the filter as well as the collection system.
  • the filtering well is buried or partially buried underground, so it is preferred that the air vent is in fluid communication with a conduit through which air from the storm water collection system can flow into the filtering well.
  • the conduit is a pipe.
  • storm water collection system has its normal meaning in the art.
  • a storm water collection system is capable of absorbing and storing water.

  • the storm water collection system may comprise a granular material, such as gravel or lava.
  • a granular material such as gravel or lava.
  • the void space between the granular material is capable of holding water. The benefit of this is that the granular material is very flexible to install, and can be made into any desired shape.
