SciCloneX™ Hydrodynamic Separator

The SciCloneX™ Hydrodynamic Separator provides an industry leading loading rate and improved performance while maintaining cost-effective design features.

Select SciCloneX® Approvals

The SciCloneX has been evaluated by some of the most stringent stormwater technology evaluation organizations in North America, including:

  • New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP)
  • New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) Scour Testing
  • New Jersey Corporation for Advanced Technology (NJCAT) Verification

      SciCloneX®Maintenance

      • The entire sump is accessible and can be viewed from the finished surface, and is completely open from the top to bottom.
      • 系统可以从双方的访问baffle wall, providing unobstructed access to stored pollutants, making it easy to maintain using a vacuum truck, with no requirement to enter the unit.
      • 续ech has a network ofCertified Maintenance Providersto provide maintenance on SciCloneX and other stormwater BMP’s.

      SciCloneX® Features and Benefits

      FEATURES BENEFITS
      Unique inlet flow splitter Best-in-class loading rate; reduced system size and costs
      100% Non-corrosive components Reliability and a long service life
      Internal high-flow bypass Eliminates the need for a separate bypass structure
      Clear access to sump and stored pollutants Fast, easy maintenance

      SciCloneX® Separator

      The SciCloneX® ushers in a new era for hydrodynamic separators. The upgradeddesign has achieved an industry-leading hydraulic loading rate and improved performance in comparison to other NJDEP certified HDS devices, while maintaining the cost-effective design features customers require.

      The SciCloneX is designed to capture and retain sediment, trash, and hydrocarbons, accepts inlet pipes from multiple angles, and comes equipped with an internal bypass.The SciCloneX is manufactured from high-density polyethylene components which are non-corrosive and extremely durable. This comprehensive system is the ultimate combination of reliability and cost-effective hydrodynamic separation.

      How the SciCloneX® Works


      • The SciCloneX Separator’s inlet flow splitter redirects inlet flows away from the center of the chamber in two directions along the system’s perimeter creating two swirling vortexes.
      • Free oils and other floatables are trapped by the baffle wall
      • Fine sediment settles down to the bottom of the sump chamber, maximizing sediment collection.
      • As water passes under the Oil/Floatables Skimmer, flows either travels upward to the crest of the Outlet Weir and Diverter Flange or through the Low-Flow Down Pipes. By distributing a portion of the flow away from the Outlet Weir, the velocity is reduced to enhance settling of finer sediment.

      Inlet and Outlet Pollution Control

      Keep trash and debris out of your lakes, streams and oceans by installing one of our technologies at the inlet or outlet of your drainage system. Our systems - which include the CDS, Cascade Separator, SciCloneX, DSBB, Vortechs, and Stormceptor Systems are most effective on removing sediments, trash and debris, and oil and grease from storm water runoff.

      Hydrodynamic Separation for Water Quality

      Our hydrodynamic separation products (including the CDS, Cascade Separator, SciCloneX, Vortechs, and Stormceptor Systems) are reliable, easy to install, and offer high-performance, proven, stormwater pollutant removal. The systems are widely accepted for effective solids removal and can be designed to achieve your site treatment goals - including TMDL requirements for TSS and trash.

      Pretreatment to Storage

      Our hydrodynamic separators are frequently installed upstream of detention and infiltration systems as pretreatment devices. By capturing the majority of sediment, hydrocarbons and trash and debris upstream of the storage system, maintenance becomes much easier as material is congregated into a smaller device with clear access for cleanout. Additionally, by utilizing pretreatment upstream of infiltration systems, sediment that would have clogged the stone voids in the storage envelope surrounding the storage chamber can be captured before entering the storage system thus extending the longevity of the entire system.

      Pretreatment for Rainwater Harvesting

      Our hydrodynamic separation products are ideal solutions for preatreatment to rainwater harvesting. Not only do they improve the overall water quality, they also provide protect the pumps and controls from being overburdened with material that could clog and damage the mechanical system.
