ACO vertical Sludge trap can remove sediment up to a certain particle size from precipitation water. Dimensioning depends entirely on the calculation of the surface flow rate. Sludge traps are used in order to remove suspended matter from surface water and thereby protect rainwater retention basins and blocking trenches for rainwater retention from silting up.

Silt trap G-H
ACO horizontal Sludge trap can remove sediment up to a certain particle size from precipitation water. Dimensioning depends entirely on the calculation of the surface flow rate. Sludge traps are used in order to remove suspended matter from surface water and thereby protect rainwater retention basins and blocking trenches for rainwater retention from silting up.
Sedismart G
The optimised ACO Sedismart-G sedimentation system has an inner body that the precipitation water to be cleaned must flow around and through. This puts the water in the sludge trap into a rotational flow. Sedimentation of the solids is optimised by lengthening the flow time. The limits of the hydraulic efficiency of the optimised sedimentation systems were confirmed by an external expert using a hydrodynamic flow simulation. The optimised ACO Sedismart-G sedimentation system is about 25% more efficient than standard sludge trap.
