MFS

Filtration with sediment storage

The MFS media filtration system utilizes variable flow controls, media-filled cartridges, and a storage sump to capture and retain a broad spectrum of pollutants to meet stringent regulatory requirements. Variable flow controls insure the system matches the influent flow to lower the average treatment flow rate and maximize performance. The large storage sump ensures system longevity on sites with heavy loading and eliminates the need for an upstream storage sump in roadway applications. With scalable cartridges available in multiple heights, the system can be sized to meet specific flow rates and stay within the available hydraulic grade line on the project.

The MFS is best suited for sites with an offset inlet and outlet depth difference of as much as 2.3 feet. Additionally, its sedimentation bay provides a greater storage capacity. The MFS is available in vault, manhole, catch basin, curb inlet, high volume, and volume configurations.

Benfits of the MFS system:
  • Variable flow control improves performance and extends maintenance interval
  • Sedimentation bay provides greater storage capacity
  • For sites with offset inlet and outlet depth difference of as much as 2.3 feet.
  • Available in vault, manhole, catch basin, curb inlet, high volume, and volume configurations

Filtration Systems for Water Quality

Filter for Water QualityThe Stormwater Management StormFilter and MFS systems provide the highest treatment level of any standalone BMP, and meet the most stringent regulatory requirements. They are able to target site-specific pollutants with customized filtration media to meet your water quality goals. Our field-proven products have earned hundreds of standalone BMP approvals from regulatory agencies nationwide.

Filtration for LID Designs

StormFilter for LIDThe cartridge-based Stormwater Management StormFilter and MFS systems can be easily configured as decentralized, small scale inlets, including catch basin, curb inlet and manhole systems to meet LID treatment requirements. The systems provide high removal efficiency for primary pollutants of concern.

Filtration for Removing Pollutants Prior to Discharge

StormFilter Inlet ProtectionMedia filtration systems - like our StormFilter and MFS systems - are able to remove the most challenging pollutants from stormwater, including total phosphorus, soluble metels, oil, and very fine particles (down to 15 microns). Available in vault, manhole, high flow and volume configurations, the StormFilter can be engineered to treat a wide range of flows within your drainage system and capture pollutants prior to discharge off-site.


Filtration for Industrial Sites

StormFilter Inlet ProtectionUse the StormFilter or MFS systems to target fine solids, dissolved metals and oil and grease from stormwater runoff at a variety of industrial sites.  These systems can effectively remove zinc and airborne particulates from metal roofing, dissolved cooper and other metals leaching from condenser tubing, and paint from surface preparation and painting, to name just a few. We provide the reliability and flexibility you need to meet environmental permit requirements.
