Surface Runoff Treatment Solutions: ECM Systems
Construction and infrastructure projects in Sri Lanka today face increased scrutiny when it comes to environmental protection and compliance with runoff management regulations. Uncontrolled surface runoff from work sites often contains silt, suspended solids, and chemical residues that can pose a threat to stormwater drains, natural water bodies, and surrounding communities.
KKE Wash Systems, a global leader in environmental technology, now brings its engineering expertise to the domain of surface runoff treatment with a new line of high-efficiency ECM Systems (Electro-Coagulation Modules). Designed to treat silty water at construction and civil engineering sites, KKE ECM units use advanced flocculation and sedimentation processes to separate out suspended solids and reduce water turbidity—making it safe for discharge or reuse.
What is an ECM System?
An ECM (Electro-Coagulation Module) is a compact, mobile water treatment solution used at construction and infrastructure development sites to remove pollutants from surface runoff or dewatering discharge. KKE’s ECM systems utilize a combination of physical, chemical, and gravitational processes to ensure high-efficiency treatment without the need for complex mechanical mixers.
Each ECM system is designed for plug-and-play operation and can be easily installed, relocated, or scaled depending on the site requirement. These systems help contractors and developers meet environmental compliance standards while minimizing operational costs.
Why Choose KKE ECM Systems?
- Corrosion-Free Construction: Made with durable composite or stainless steel materials suitable for prolonged outdoor use
- Minimal Maintenance: With few or no moving parts, the systems are easy to clean and require very little service intervention
- Fully Portable & Scalable: Compact modular design ensures flexibility for small, mid-size, or large project sites
- Chemical Flocculation Technology: Efficient removal of suspended solids, turbidity, and sediment through water-safe flocculants
- Gravity-Based Sedimentation: Designed to separate solids naturally without high power usage
- Custom Flow Capacities: Models available from 5 m³/hr to 80 m³/hr and above
- Environmentally Friendly: Treated water meets regulatory limits for safe discharge
Applications of KKE ECM Systems in Sri Lanka
Our ECM units are ideal for:
- Construction sites with excavation, piling, or earthworks
- Flood-prone zones requiring temporary runoff control
- Infrastructure projects like roads, bridges, and tunnels
- Industrial parks with rainwater or sludge-heavy effluent
- Landfills and reclamation sites
KKE ECM Models & Capacities
We offer ECM systems in multiple sizes to suit your project requirement. Capacities range from 5 m³/hr up to 80 m³/hr. Custom flow capacity systems can also be fabricated upon request.
Model | Max Treatment Capacity | Recommended For |
---|---|---|
KKE ECM-5 | 5 m³/hr | Compact sites with limited space |
KKE ECM-10 | 10 m³/hr | Small urban projects and basements |
KKE ECM-20 | 20 m³/hr | Mid-size commercial or industrial zones |
KKE ECM-40 | 40 m³/hr | Large-scale construction sites |
KKE ECM-60 | 60 m³/hr | Major infrastructure projects |
KKE ECM-80 | 80 m³/hr | Heavy-duty industrial and landfill runoff |
ECM vs Oil Sludge Separator: What's the Difference?
Although both ECM systems and Oil Sludge Separators are used for wastewater treatment, they are designed for different contaminants and mechanisms:
Feature | KKE ECM Systems | Oil Sludge Separator with Coalescing Media |
---|---|---|
Target Contaminants | Silt, clay, sediment, suspended solids | Oil, grease, hydrocarbons |
Primary Mechanism | Chemical flocculation + sedimentation | Physical coalescence + floatation |
Typical Use Cases | Construction runoff, floodwater | Car washes, garages, oily pits |
Chemical Dosing | Yes (flocculants like PAC) | No |
Flow Mode | Batch or continuous | Continuous |
New / Refurbished / Rental Options
Depending on your project needs and duration, KKE offers flexible acquisition options:
- Purchase New: Brand new systems, customizable layout, and ready-to-deploy.
- Refurbished Systems: Reconditioned ECMs for budget-friendly compliance.
- Rental ECMs: Monthly rental available for short-duration sites.
Support You Can Trust
