Our solutions – your benefits – AQUAFIX heavy metal separators
The AQUAFIX system for treating heavy metals uses an efficient two-stage cleaning process to purify rainwater from traffic areas and roofs. It consistently retains coarse and fine particles and reliably binds dissolved heavy metals, resulting in purified water that can be safely discharged into natural waterways or reused.
Thanks to a wide range of filter sizes, AQUAFIX can be flexibly adapted to a wide variety of connection areas — from smaller roof areas to large traffic areas. The solid concrete shaft ensures the necessary load-bearing capacity and permanently high stability even under extreme traffic loads.

Why heavy metal removal matters in modern water Management
The removal of heavy metals refers to targeted measures that minimise or eliminate contaminants such as copper, zinc, lead, nickel, and chromium from water. These substances may occur dissolved or attached to fine suspended matter and can threaten ecosystems, human health, and water resources if left untreated.
In practice, removing heavy metals involves capturing and binding these substances before they can reach soils, groundwater, or natural watercourses. This is achieved through dedicated processes such as adsorption, ion exchange, precipitation, or filtration, which help ensure that the treated water complies with regulatory thresholds and is suitable for discharge or reuse.
A typical solution can consist of a two-stage approach: zeolites first separate metals bound to sediment, followed by the adsorption of dissolved metal ions. The result is reliably cleaned stormwater that can be returned to the environment with confidence.
Design of the AQUAFIX HMC heavy metal separator
HMC tanks are made from reinforced steel concrete, providing exceptional durability and ensuring long-term stability, even under heavy traffic loads. They are available in a range of diameters, from DN 1200 to DN 2500, to suit various hydraulic and site requirements.
Application areas for heavy metal separators
AQUAFIX HMC heavy metal separators are used wherever rainwater may carry elevated concentrations of dissolved or particulate metals, such as on roads and car parks, commercial and industrial areas, metal roofs, as well as in the vicinity of sensitive receiving waters and infiltration systems.
