Water Management for Extreme Weather with ACO

Planning for extreme weather - the effective ways you need
to manage a harmonious water cycle with ACO's system chain

Effectively managing water can be tricky where extreme weather is involved. For the environmentally conscious among us the idea of water wastage sends a shiver down our spines and protecting this from happening by incorporating sustainable methods helps to encourage the waters reuse.

ACO are a worldwide supplier of drainage systems that aim to help safely control excess water for ecological and economical reuse. Their acclaimed Water Management System Chain approach helps planners to control water as it passes through the water cycle chain, specifically at groundwater level, to harmonise with parts of the Water Sensitive Urban Design:

Collect
A drainage system is put in place to gather and collect surface water as quickly and completely as possible to avoid wastage whilst protecting people and property around the urban environment. Efficient collection prevents people from having accidents and damage occurring to walking and vehicular pavements and structures.

Clean
The water collected is then treated using integrated physical, chemical or biological processes to guarantee that it can be expelled into sewers for sustainable use. This is particularly necessary if there has been a hazardous spill or contamination.

Hold
A crucial part of the process. The liquid that has been collected is then held in the system chain for reuse. Depending on the planners intent, precious water can be held for storage or infiltration.

Release
The final piece of the puzzle, the collected liquid that has been treated can be pumped and discharged into downstream systems and receiving waterways in a sustainably ecological way.
