Discover our system inPluvio - Drain Blocs
Our prefabricated drainage modules are made of polypropylene (PP) plastic, which has high mechanical strength.
Used for urban drainage and the management of large volumes of rainwater
THE PROBLEM
The significant climate changes and massive urbanisation that our region has undergone in recent years have highlighted the inadequacy of our rainwater drainage networks, dramatically increasing the hydraulic and hydrological risk across our entire region.
CLIMATE CHANGE
These are two extreme phenomena linked to the water cycle, which are becoming increasingly frequent and intense due to climate change and human activity.
Low rainfall and rising temperatures lead to the depletion of water reserves, with devastating consequences for the environment and human activities.
Floods, on the other hand, are caused by violent and abundant rainfall, which can swell rivers to the point of overflowing, destroying infrastructure, contaminating water and endangering people's safety.
URBANISATION
The rapid growth of global urbanisation has led to changes in land management and the natural course of water.
Water is lost due to leaks in water networks and, above all, due to the dramatic increase in surface runoff, often with a negative impact on the supply and quality of water resources.
The principles of hydraulic and hydrological invariance were developed in response to these problems and their consequences for rainwater management.
The aim of these principles is to reduce the impact of changes to the territory on the natural dynamics of water runoff, preventing.
THE SOLUTION
Starplast designs and manufactures its new sustainable urban drainage system with drain blocs. Innovative, modern and durable, it allows for the management of large volumes of rainwater, with the following applications:
DRAINING SYSTEM
in case of hydrogeological invariance
Cell system entirely wrapped in geotextile that collects rainwater and returns it to receiving water bodies (rivers, aquifers) in a controlled manner, regulating it in order to:
Ⓥ optimise groundwater recharge
Ⓥ manage overflow tanks where water can be controlled and drained to areas far from receptors
MIXED SYSTEM
infiltration and lamination
If drainage needs to be ensured on soil with poor permeability and, at the same time, excess water needs to be sent to the receptor at a controlled flow rate, it is possible to equip inPluvio completely wrapped with geotextile and calibrated pipe. In this case, controlled flow will be guaranteed through the calibrated pipe or lift pump to the surface watercourse/sewer, while at the same time ensuring soil permeability.
Ⓥ minimum aquifers recharge maintenance
Ⓥ controlled discharge into watercourses, avoiding the risk of flooding
LAMINATIONS BASINS
for hydraulically invariant storage systems
If the subsoil is not suitable for infiltration, it is advisable to accumulate the water and then release it into the receiving bodies, discharging it
over time, using the inPluvio system, completely wrapped first with geotextile, then with HDPE geomembrane and externally again with geotextile.
Rainwater spreads evenly inside the cells, where it is temporarily collected and then released in a regulated manner through a calibrated pipe, possibly with a motorised valve or lifting pump.
The inPluvio system, intended for accumulation and lamination, must be sealed, waterproof and watertight in order to:
Ⓥ reduce de size of drainage networks
Ⓥ management over time of runoff generated
by heavy rainfall
WATWER RECOVERY AND REUSE
in case where rainwater needs to be recovered and reused
Water is a precious resource that must be used carefully, avoiding waste and abuse.
Depending on the circumstances, it may be more convenient to collect, store and reuse rainwater rather than allowing it to infiltrate the soil or directing it into the sewer system.
The collcted water can be reused for:
Ⓥ irrigation purposes:
- intensive farming
-gardens and green areas
Ⓥ recovery for industrial non-potable use
or washing car parks/roads
