For a works premises Funke Kunststoffe developed a modern rainwater treatment concept. Rainwater from the storage areas and roof surfaces is conducted through a pipe system to a basin that measures 300 m2 and contains a layer of a sand and lava mixture as well as a D-Rainclean substrate (Zn).
The expenditure for the construction has been kept within limits, due to the substantially reduced space requirements in comparison with other systems. In addition to this, contaminants are removed from the rainwater as it flows through the D-Rainclean substrate (Zn), leaving it free from residues.
