Efficient Pollutant Removal
BaySaver Technologies’ multilayered underground sand filtration system removes very fine sediment and nutrient pollutants from stormwater runoff at a flow rate of 30 GPM per cartridge. As stormwater makes its way through 43 square feet of surface area per cartridge, BayFilter removes more than 80% TSS (d50=23.2 microns) and greater than 50% of total phosphorous including dissolved phosphorus. It also boasts a 50% reduction of turbidity. The filter’s unique hydrodynamic backwash self-cleansing component dislodges pollutants and restores the porosity of the media after every storm, contributing to efficient operation, extended maintenance intervals, and a long product lifespan. BayFilter’s patented design has no moving parts and generates a true siphon effect. Each BayFilter® system is customized to assist specifying engineers, regulators, developers and contractors with regulatory compliance, limited space conditions, and installations in ecologically sensitive areas.

Stormwater Filtration
A best management practice (BMP) designed to meet stringent regulatory requirements, the Stormwater Management StormFilter® removes the most challenging target pollutants, including fine solids, soluble heavy metals, oil, and total nutrients, using a variety of sustainable media. Its patented, surface-cleaning system prevents surface blinding, extending the cartridge life cycle. The StormFilter’s proven field-tested performance has led to hundreds of stand-alone approvals by regulatory agencies nationwide, including the first proprietary BMP to receive Final Certification from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection as a stand-alone stormwater treatment system.

Stormwater Quality Unit
Hancor’s Stormwater Quality Unit offers excellent filtration of solids and is designed to meet the varying requirements of a municipality’s EPA Phase II stormwater runoff guidelines. The ‘ready-to-install’ unit is manufactured with non-corrosive, lightweight, high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Two weir plates trap oils and total suspended solids as water flows through surface drainage structures and into the water quality unit.

Granulated Media
Sorbtive™ P Engineered Media has been developed to capture and retain dissolved phosphorus from stormwater runoff through absorption and filtration. This granulated media has a high surface area, which absorbs and retains pollutants, and does not decompose or leach pollutants. As a result, Sorbtive provides between 100 and 1,000 times more soluble phosphorous removal in comparison with conventional medias in the stormwater market. Sorbtive P offers a new tool to address TMDLs and provides exceptional treatment for critical watersheds.
