Stormceptor – tested and verified technology that works

The Stormceptor system has been tested and verified by some of the most stringent technology evaluation organizations in North America, and performs especially well when compared to competing stormwater separators.

ETV Approved

The Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) Program is a joint Environment Canada - Industry Canada initiative delivered by ETV Canada. The ETV Program is designed to support Canada’s environment industry by providing credible and independent verification of technology performance claims. Full approval report>>

Further field and lab testing

Stormceptor has undergone extensive field and lab testing by the National Water Research Institute (1993, 1994) and the University of Coventry (1996). Marshall Macklin Monaghan Limited (1994) also performed computer modeling of Stormceptor.

Imbrium Systems undertook sediment monitoring of 21 installed units in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Field monitoring has also been conducted in Alberta, Massachusetts, Minnesota and Wisconsin. Detailed reports from these studies are available from Imbrium Systems.

Stable test sites | Unstable test sites | Lab testing

Stable test sites -- A stable site is covered with non-erodible surfaces such as vegetation, asphalt, concrete and/or structures. Stable sites have a “limited” amount of sediment that builds up between rain events, and will significantly decline during a storm event. e.g. paved parking lot.

Stable Test Site

Unstable Test Sites

An unstable site is covered by an erodible surface that contains a theoretically unlimited quantity of particulate matter. Unstable sites make standard build-up/wash off equations unreliable. e.g. gravel road.
