Abstract: A fluid management system including an inlet configured to receive pre-processed fluid is provided. The system includes a filtering apparatus configured to remove contaminants from the pre-processed fluid. The filtering apparatus includes a plate having a first opening. A first manifold pipe is disposed on the plate and includes one or more perforations and a second opening at least partially aligned with the first opening. A second manifold pipe is disposed on the plate and includes one or more perforations. Filter media is disposed between the first manifold pipe and the second manifold pipe and is configured to separate the contaminants from the pre-processed fluid. The system also includes an outlet coupled to the second manifold pipe to receive processed fluid from the filtering apparatus.

Abstract: A fluid management system can include a first chamber, a diffusion plate positioned in the first chamber configured to receive fluid and to direct the fluid along a bypass fluid flow path or a primary fluid flow path, a riser pipe positioned within the first chamber that conveys fluid from the diffusion plate into a second chamber, and a filtering apparatus positioned in the second chamber. The filtering apparatus can include a plate having a first opening, one or more modules coupled to the plate having one or more perforations and a second opening corresponding to the first opening, and filter media disposed adjacent to the one or more modules, and a slab positioned above the filtering apparatus.

Abstract: A liquid quality system for removing particulates from liquid (e.g., storm-water runoff). The system can include tubular portion (e.g., a manhole). The tubular portion has an inlet and an outlet. The system includes liquid quality device. The liquid quality device includes a partitioning portion. The partitioning portion has a first region including a funnel shape with a sump inlet aperture. The partitioning portion also has a second region including a sump outlet aperture and optionally a sump access aperture. A sump region is located between a base portion and the partitioning portion, wherein a flow of the liquid travels from the inlet in the tubular portion, into the funnel, through the sump inlet aperture, into the sump region, through the sump outlet aperture, and out the outlet of the tubular portion. At least one drag-inducing portion is positioned proximate the tubular portion in the sump region and projecting inwardly towards a central axis of the sump region.

Abstract: An inventive apparatus induces a vortex in a liquid flow (e.g., storm-water runoff) to remove particulates from the liquid. The apparatus can be inserted into a tubular portion (e.g., a manhole) such that a sump region is located below the apparatus. The apparatus includes a base and a weir extending upwardly from the base. The base has a first region including a funnel shape with a sump inlet aperture. The base also has a second region including a sump outlet aperture and optionally a sump access aperture. The weir separates the first region from the second region.
