Storm water management.
→ APPLICATIONS / STORM WATER MANAGEMENT
XPEL evaporation technology restores operating space and stabilizes site-wide water movement in environments where uncontrolled storm water can disrupt operations, intensify runoff and elevate environmental risks.
STORM WATER MANAGEMENT
Storm water volumes can rise quickly during heavy rainfall, snowmelt, or other seasonal weather patterns, placing sudden hydraulic pressure on ponds, sumps, and diversion channels.
These rapid inflows often exceed the storage margins designed for day-to-day operation, creating bottlenecks that affect access, containment stability and site-wide water movement.
Industrial facilities, mining operations and municipal sites face additional runoff from stockpiles, processing areas and hardstand surfaces, which can compound storm-driven inflows. When these combined volumes accumulate faster than they can be transferred or treated, sites risk erosion, overtopping, infrastructure strain and regulatory exposure.
XPEL integrates industrial-scale evaporation capability to reduce accumulated storm water held in containment ponds quickly and consistently. This engineered reduction restores operating space, protects storage capacity and helps sites maintain stability when inflows surge.
XPEL water evaporation technology provides a consistent, mechanically driven method for managing weather-driven water variability. This reduction stabilizes storage levels, protects downstream systems and strengthens operational resilience under volatile storm conditions.
Storm water management applications.
■
Stormwater volumes shift rapidly with rainfall intensity, terrain and surrounding land activity, creating unpredictable inflows that can overwhelm ponds and storage structures. XPEL’s engineered evaporation systems reduce excess stormwater held in these ponds, creating the operating space needed to maintain site stability even during high-volume events.
-
Stormwater can overwhelm containment ponds at food processing sites, and XPEL provides the evaporation capacity needed to reduce stored water and keep those ponds within safe operating limits.
-
Storm water runoff at oil and gas sites can carry hydrocarbons or sediments into high-risk containment areas, and XPEL helps manage these surges by creating the evaporation space needed to keep those ponds within safe limits.
-
Storm events can rapidly fill mine-site ponds and sumps with runoff from haul roads and waste rock, and XPEL restores operating space by evaporating excess water before it restricts access or affects downstream circuits.
-
Municipal networks experience heavy strain when stormwater ponds approach capacity, and XPEL supports these systems by reducing stored volumes so drainage and treatment assets can function without overload.
-
Legacy and industrial sites face runoff that can mobilize historical contaminants, and XPEL reduces pond levels fast enough to keep inflows controlled and environmental exposure in check.
-
Stormwater in pulp and paper facilities often carries fibers and chemicals into containment ponds, and XPEL provides the evaporation performance needed to maintain safe storage through peak inflow periods.
-
Manufacturing facilities experience stormwater surges that can overwhelm limited storage areas, and XPEL helps maintain stability by evaporating accumulated water and keeping containment ponds within workable limits.
