flowpop
For years HAZMAT spills have required hours of toil to keep the spill from going into the storm drains. With FlowPopTM, a revolution in storm drain pipe flow control, containment and remediation of hazardous material, the storm drain becomes an advantage. FlowPopTM eases clean up and speeds up the process.
This highway spill was handled the old-fashioned way. With FlowPopTM the spill could have been cleaned in half the time with less exposure and NO digging.
Above is an example of how clean-up crews carrying FlowPopTM can use the storm drain to their advantage. Once FlowPopTM is installed in the storm drain discharge pipe and inflated, all contaminants are flushed with clean water to the rear ports of the plug. Non-soluble liquids separate from the flush water which allows for rapid remediation using a standard vacuum system, pump or gravity drain.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
FlowPopTM works by using storm drains to contain and remediate contaminates from spills or accidents. In the past, allowing the spill to reach a storm drain was a disaster as that was one of the primary ways for a spill to contaminate the surrounding ecosystem. Now with FlowPopTM the storm drain becomes an advantage in containment and remediation.
In the diagram to the left and image to the right, liquid contaminants pour freely through a storm drain impacting the environment. This is what you want to avoid!!
FlowPopTM is inserted in the discharge pipe of the contaminated storm drain system and inflated, thus containing the hazardous material.
  Flush water is now added to the storm drain pipe, flushing the hazardous material to the rear of the FlowPop TM where it separates from the flush water and can easily be recovered.
 A HAZMAT Team can now safely recover all hazardous material and decontaminate the storm drain pipe using FlowPopTM
