Stormwater/Wastewater Ponds

Innovation In Stormwater And Sediment Pond Management

Issue at a Glance

Stormwater ponds act as filters to prevent debris from seeping into our natural water systems and positively impact erosion.

However, these ponds fill with debris that settles on the bottom as sediment. It usually contains sand, silt and clay from surface erosion, but can also include less human-friendly elements such as hydrocarbons and salt.

Ongoing maintenance is key to the success of this passive water management tool. If the sediment is left to build up in the pond and is not removed regularly, the stormwater pond can no longer properly filter debris.

Overview of MetaFLO's product

Using MetaFLO’s reagent, the hydro excavation material is transformed into a dry, earth-like finish.

This solution requires no in-ground sumps, and provides optimal efficiency for expensive hydro excavation trucks and low-cost disposal options for solid material.

The dosage required for solidification with MetaFLO’s reagent results in a much smaller quantity than would be produced by sawdust or wood chip bulking methods.

This also reduces activities that generate a carbon footprint and mitigates safety and environmental risks associated with shipping large quantities of liquid waste.

With MetaFLO, liquid slurry disposal is optimized:

  1. MetaFLO’s technology solidifies the liquid waste on-site
  2. The solidified waste is transferred to dump trucks to be transported directly to the final disposal site.

The MetaFLO patented process provides massive benefits, such as:

  • Cost savings
  • Fewer trucks needed
  • No expensive liquid transport
  • Reduction in GHG emissions
  • Control of waste
  • Compliance for client
  • Soil reused as clean, regenerative fill material
  • Less paperwork involved

MetaFLO Technologies can work with operations personnel to help put together a tailored and effective plan to address the challenges of dealing with wet spoils (such as drill cuttings, hydro-excavation materials, and mining waste).
