Zinc-B-Gone for Roof Runoff
Zinc-B-Gone (patent pending†) is a sorptive media filtration system for industrial stormwater roof runoff applications. This stormwater treatment BMP removes dissolved metals such as zinc, copper and lead in a simple and easy-to-use configuration. Zinc-B-Gone is typically installed above ground in-line with a rooftop downspout, and its three models come scalable up to 1200 gpm for rooftops 0.5 acres and up.
Zinc-B-Gone Features
- Removes dissolved zinc, copper and lead
- Super-duty tank for many years of service
- Ideal for TSS
- Uses passive filtration, no chemicals, no backwash
- Open top for easy access and operation
- Operates unattended, 24/7
- Gravity flow-through system, no moving parts
Zinc-B-Gone Applications
Zinc-B-Gone’s simple configuration can be used in various applications such as:
