Storm Water Systems will unveil StormX to the North American markets in August 2010 at the StormCon and American Public Works expositions. Attendees will have the opportunity to examine the product first-hand and utilize the StormX calculator which allows the user to view flow rates by entering various parameters.

StormX is constructed of stainless steel hubs anchored into concrete for a weir configuration or secured directly to concrete or steel pipe outfalls with reusable commercial grade nets. Rubbish and debris flows with storm water runoff into the system where the nets capture the rubbish and allow the water to continue to flow unimpeded.
 

The construction of StormX allows for the weirs and nets to assist with sediment fallout and collection without flooding. The system's built-in overflow mechanisms allow for heavy runoff to flow unimpeded during a heavy rain event.
 

Gary Hopkins, president of Storm Water Systems said: “Governments and citizens are realizing that we must stop litter from moving into our waterways at every juncture possible if we are going to ensure a clean and safe environment for generations to come. StormX is a powerful and economical solution that will stop the flow of both floatable and non-floatable trash and debris as small as five millimetres in size. It is the perfect tool for capturing trash and debris before it reaches the waterways of any size city or town.”
