Pollution Safety Solution
Solutions specifically adapted to industrial sites where it is important to contain accidental releases and protect the environment against run-oft pollution. This most frequently involves the rainwater drainage system and thus making all or part of the site a retention area.
Two main risks should be considered:
Accidental chemical spillage Fire extinguishing water. This can be a voluntary approach under setting up an Environmental Management System working towards ISO 14000 certification, for example. Administrative obligations may
dictate this approach.
The 1992 law on water imposes the principle of`who pollutes, pays" under all circumstances. Closing the rainwater drainage pipes involves "plugging" the exits with a suitable material. This material must be simple and quick to use and always available. It can be used in an emergency or for servicing.
Inflatable solutions satisfy these requirements. Easy to install, they only require a few minutes preliminary work. Reliable and very low maintenance, inflatable plugs neverjam!
The movable plug, called X`STOP, is well known and used by firemen, for example, It can be used easily and quickly in all circumstances thanks to accessories like the Independent Inflation System.
The fixed-station plug, called TELESTOP, can be controlled remotely and automated, It can produce quick and effective plugging by itself, without even the intervention of a security team, Always available, on stand-by in the pipes, it does not hinder flows. Retention areas are quickly created thanks to its speed of inflation whilst waiting for the accidental pollution to be pumped, evacuated and treated.
