BIRCOprime®

First-class sedimentation, all along the drainage

Maximum retention, maximum sedimentation: With BIRCOprime®, BIRCO introduces a rainwater treatment system that cleans the water while it flows off. This particle sedimentation takes place invisibly directly inside the drainage channel system. This is because sedimentation in BIRCOprime® takes place via a weir system that is integrated into the channel – without any chemical or biological treatment at all.

Rainwater can be contaminated with pollutants that should not enter our reservoirs and groundwater. A large proportion of these pollutants are bound in particles to so-called filterable substances (AFS). In most cases, filtration is not necessary; thanks to BIRCOprime® these substances are consistently separated through effective sedimentation.
