Biodegradable filtration system
The SedimentSTOP biodegradable filtration system consists of a 70-percent straw and 30-percent coconut-fibre matrix reinforced with 100-percent biodegradable netting that is rolled from edge to edge to create a highly-effective, temporary, three-dimensional, sediment-filtration structure.
SedimentSTOP is ideal for reducing soil loss caused by stormwater runoff, and can assist in complying with some environmental regulations, and help earn points toward LEED Green Building Rating System project certification goals.
SedimentSTOP provides highly effective sediment control for a wide range of applications including: highway, commercial and new home construction, edging/perimeter control, wetland mitigation, revegetation applications, steep slopes, riparian area protection (the interface between land and stream), and forest fire rehabilitation and bioengi-neering projects.
By eliminating the need to return to the jobsite to remove the sediment control structure, SedimentSTOP is designed to save users time, money, and headaches.
This product is water permeable, so it allows water to pass through while trapping soil particles. It offers signifi-cantly greater filtration capabilities and sediment retention than wattles, straw bales, or silt fence. SedimentSTOP can be incorporated with a variety of planting techniques, such as live planting, live staking, and seed incorporation, and the leno-woven net enables jute strands to move independently, and openings to expand as necessary. This flexibility, combined with its 100 percent biodegradability, minimizes the risk of accidental wildlife entrapment. SedimentSTOP is easy to install and will dramatically reduce surface-sheet erosion, according to its manufacturer.
