Special introduction
The use of the plants for the treatment of waste water arising from workshop drainage and from
the draining, dismantling, compaction and shredding of end-of-life vehicles is only possible in
specific cases after the permissibility of such a discharge has been clarified with the competent
water authority, since in these cases other pollutants in addition to hydrocarbons may be
present in concentrations that cannot be adequately treated in a plant.
Wastewater treatment according to Annex 49 of the wastewater regulation
If the plant is used for the treatment of wastewater which contains mineral oil within the meaning
of Annex 49 of the Wastewater regulation, e.g.
■
in mechanical vehicle cleaning (partial flow: discharge before the circulation system with
subsequent discharge),
■
manual vehicle cleaning (vehicle washing, engine washing, underbody washing, chassis
cleaning in wash halls and at self-service or company washing stations),
■
the drainage of areas which are to receive and store end-of-life vehicles, then it
constitutes a plant for the limitation of hydrocarbons in waste water containing mineral
oil within the meaning of Part E, paragraph 2 of Annex 49 of the Wastewater regulation.
In these cases, the value for hydrocarbons of
≤
20 mg/l required under water law is deemed to
be complied with.
1.1.2 Application limits
■
The maximum installation depth (distance between the upper edge of the manhole cover
and the tank base) is 7.00 m.
■
When transferring wastewater into the public sewer system, the locally applicable
limiting value for hydrocarbons must be observed. Additional wastewater treatment may
be required. Suitable wastewater treatment plants on request,
Introduction "ACO
Service".
1.1.3 Installation requirements
Only applies to Germany. Provisions in other countries can vary.
Protection against leakage of light liquids:
The light liquid must never be able to escape from the plant or from the shaft construction. The
installation is to be installed in such a way that the upper edge of the cover (earth's surface) is
arranged sufficiently high in relation to the decisive level of the surface to be drained.
As the plant is equipped with an electrical warning system (suitable for operation in zone 0) for
light liquids, the plant does not need to be installed in an elevated position.
