Reduce time related incidents

Reduce total cost of ownership

Reduce your carbon footprint

Reducing disruption

We work closely with customers to deliver solutions to fit any size or complexity of project without long project timescales, letting your business get back to work quickly. Our materials and installation processes are practical and efficient. Most containment systems can be designed and built offsite, so the installation process is remarkably fast compared to traditional systems. In fact, almost all installations are non-reportable to the Health and Safety Executive, saving you time and resources.

Traditional concrete bund systems take up to 15 weeks to build and require heavy, disruptive vehicles and equipment. By contrast, our solutions can be installed in as little as a day, keeping your costs to a minimum. Capture Green solutions are easy to maintain and built to last, so capital costs and ongoing costs are low.

Our services and solutions help our customers comply with environmental regulations. Our low-impact materials and installation techniques, and methods for preventing and containing spills lower our customers’ carbon footprint. Innovative smart technology, used in many of our solutions, captures pollutants more effectively and enables a more environmentally friendly means of disposal. Activity on site is reduced and the need for heavy materials such as concrete reduces.

Our proven solutions are designed to contain potentially hazardous incidents quickly and without any risk of pollutants migrating into the environment. It means any issues can be resolved quickly and cleanly, and service disruptions can be avoided without placing excessive pressure on alternative resources. And once in place, our solutions are proven to meet the highest regulatory standards, so spills or leaks can be contained quickly and with little disruption to your business and your customers.

6. Secondary Containment

Capture Green delivers innovative secondary containment solutions that ensure greater pollution control. These modular systems integrate with water remediation units and can be tailored to specific site requirements. Reduce network costs, and disruption of installations to you, your employees and your customers. And, most importantly, you significantly reduce the time workers spend in potentially dangerous environments.

Capture Green’s secondary containment systems use innovative, lightweight technology to improve your carbon footprint and drive down project costs on even the most demanding sites. Our containment systems are ideal for new installations and for retro-fitting in existing sites.

CAN BE TESTED TO BS EN 1992-3:2006 STANDARDS

Capture Green composite bunds are ideal for retro-fi tting in sites where health and safety is paramount, such as locations where high-voltage lines are present. Our composite bunds are strong but lightweight, corrosion and fi re resistant and non-conductive. They can be installed in as little as one day because they can be partially manufactured off site, and the mechanically and chemically-fi xed joints require minimal curing time.

Capture Green designs steel containment solutions to accommodate the shape of your transformer, including the cables and cooling elements- ideal for new-build sites or sites undergoing refurbishment. Smarter than traditional systems, they are fully fabricated off -site using thick steel sheet that is treated to ISO12944 standards. They are easy to install, and can be in place within a day, complete with integrated fi re suppression and water remediation systems. But there’s no compromise on seal strength or safety.Tailor-made for both indoor and outdoor applications, our steel bunds are modular with interlocking elements for easy scalability.

Capture Green uses high-tensile, chemical-resistant liners for this below-ground bund system. Heat-sealed and fi tted below the stone, our liners are watertight and allow for water to drain to a pre-determined drainage point where our oil-reactive systems are fi tted.These UV resistant liners are manufactured off site and delivered as a fi nished product, enabling vast containment areas to be constructed without concrete. Where a concrete system takes up to 15 weeks to build and requires heavy vehicles, our impermeable liner systems can be installed within a week and require less maintenance than conventional concrete.Our liners are easily adaptable to site specifi cations and are fully tested and supplied with quality assurance and testing documents.

Our temporary containment systems are often used for the temporary storage of large and medium-sized oil-fi lled transformers. They are suitable for outdoor or indoor use, easy to assemble and low-maintenance, and can be custom-built to suit your requirements.Capture Green’s temporary containment systems are compatible with all Capture Green water remediation systems and are made using a highly chemical-resistant geo-membrane.This provides an exit route for surface water run-off while preventing oil from leaving the site.

8. Water Remediation

Our solutions do not simply separate contaminates from water. They filter all water, using our unique smart technology to remove contaminates to non-detect levels. Our smart filtration technology allows surface water to drain unimpeded, but permanently captures hydrocarbons, removing contaminates to non-detect levels and shutting off automatically in the event of a catastrophic breach.

Our smart filtration technology will enable you to exceed compliance and ensure no pollutants leave your site. Traditionally, the removal of pollutants from water has relied on the use of the industry norm: oil/water separators. But these aren’t always effective, especially in conditions such as flooding. Capture Green water remediation solutions are more efficient, contain no mechanical parts and block hydrocarbons altogether.

Water Remediation .9

Capture Green’s Water Remediation Chamber (WRC) captures contaminates that are often found in surface water that’s discharged from secondary containment or drainage systems.This system contains a variety of smart filtration media to remove contaminates from water. Regardless of its size or function, the filtration chamber is a sealed unit that is not affected by flooding. It means that accumulating hydrocarbons within the system are unable to overflow or backflow, making this system ideal for use in flood risk areas. The system is highly versatile, constructed to class 1 full retention oil/water interceptor BS guidelines, and to the specifications of your site. It’s easy to service, and can be used in new-build locations or retro-fitted to existing systems.

The Capture Green Hydrocarbon Removal Filter (HRF) can be used in electrical substations or anywhere that rain water runs off potentially contaminated sites. It not only removes hydrocarbons from surface water, but also shuts off when overwhelmed with contaminants. In other words, it works as a hydrocarbon ‘stop valve’ for your secondary containment applications, so that there’s no way oil can make its way into drainage systems and rivers.The HRF is Environment Agency-approved for use on containment systems around transformers, and its technical capabilities are fully approved by Bureau Veritas. Ideal for smaller sites, it can be scaled up or down according to the flow rates required for your specific project.

The Hydrocarbon Removal Cartridge (HRC) allows accumulating water to flow from your containment system while retaining pollutants, preventing them from entering the environment. The HRC also shuts down if overwhelmed with hydrocarbons, preventing any flow from the site.Compatible with all Capture Green containment systems, the HRC can be custom built according to your needs. Also approved by the Environment Agency for use with containment systems around transformers, the HRC is the design standard with companies such as EDF Energy and London Underground.

The Oil Specific Polymer Geo-membrane (OSPG) is a basic geotextile made from recycled synthetic materials. But its unique properties mean the product offers a revolutionary solution to pollution control. When surface water flows through it, the membrane removes 100% of the hydrocarbons from the water retaining them within the bund, preventing pollutants from entering the environment. The membrane works perfectly with an impermeable liner to create secondary containment around transformers, for example, and is well suited to below-ground sites. With a long life-span and UV resistance of 70%, the technology is used in many of our products and solutions. It offers multiple benefits to your business and the environment, not least that spills are easily contained and pollutants can be disposed of quickly, safely and cost effectively.

CAN BE USED WITH TRADITIONAL CONCRETE BUNDS.

“Until recently there was nothing suitable on the market to contain an escape of oil in certain locations, particularly where it would be diffi cult to excavate a traditional trough and fit a bund. We then heard about the new membrane and arranged a site meeting with the developers, Capture Green, and have collaborated with them, the Electricity Networks Association (ENA) and several other DNOs to help develop the product for use in the utility industry.”

Andy Martyr-Icke, Environment Team, Western Power Distribution

“The installation took just a few hours and didn’t require any digging. It was a straightforward operation which had no impact on users or visitors at the Roman Baths.”

“A big thank you to Capture Green who responded quickly to my request for a cost-effective solution for pollution prevention. As an HS&E Consultant I needed to provide one of my clients with a practical and timely solution to manage their legal obligations for storage of treated wood poles. Your understanding of the problem, proposal for its solution and completion of the works to their complete satisfaction means I will not hesitate to use your company in the future.”

Karen Pring, HS&E Consultant

“We are always seeking to fi nd innovative ways to protect the environment against any pollution, such as the development of the Green Rhino fi lter bag in partnership with Capture Green. We are the fi rst utility to adopt the fi ltering of any water pumped from excavations as standard practice. Green Rhino technology is being deployed by UK Power Networks on street works to benefi t the company, our customers, and the environment. Before the introduction of Green Rhino it was accepted practice to pump water out of a street-works hole and discharge to a grass verge, if available, or down the street if not. If the water was heavily contaminated with oil and/or sediment, the company would have to arrange for a tanker to pump out the water and take it off site for disposal at a cost of approximately £1,000.”

12. Fire Suppresion

Suitable for retro-fitting to existing sites and for new build sites, this system removes the heat source, fuel and oxygen from the fire. Compatible with all our containment solutions, the fire extinguishing baffles are made from galvanised sheet metal. They allow the oil to transfer through engineered voids where the oil is starved of oxygen. Protective walkway panels can be fitted over the system for access to the transformer.

Independently verified and tested, Capture Green’s Fire Suppression System instantly contains and extinguishes fire on site within three minutes. This greatly reduces the impact of a fire and pollution related risk, keeping any potential outage, damage and cost to a minimum.

Leak Diversion .13

The Leak Diversion System can eliminate oil migration from most leaking transformers, whether they are contained within bund systems or not. It does this with a series of bespoke oil trap diverters, which Capture Green designs specifically for each leak point. It’s quick to deploy and can be used for managing leaks long term, or while waiting for necessary maintenance.

The Capture Green Leak Diversion System (LDS) prevents fluids leaking from transformers. It not only stops oil from entering the bund or surrounding environment, but also enables the oil to be recovered, recycled and reused.

Stop transformer leaks before they become costly problems

14. Creosote Containment

The Creosote Pole Bund System is an innovative secondary containment solution by Capture Green. It helps store creosote-impregnated distribution poles in compliance with strict regulations, without exception. It can be designed according to your site’s requirements and location, is quick and easy to install and off ers signifi cant safety benefi ts. The system is installed at far-reduced costs than traditional reinforced concrete bunding, and our rapid implementation reduces your carbon footprint and any urgent compliance needs.

We are working with our customers and the Environment Agency to pioneer new solutions for creosote containment. Take control of creosote containment by using our innovative smart bund system. Eliminate the discharge of toxins into the ground, creating a safer, cleaner environment, helping you meet your ISO 14001 obligations.

18. Green Rhino Pollution Prevention & Control Products

Green Rhino Dewatering Pack

Green Rhino® products are a low cost, low carbon and lightweight alternative to costly, inefficient conventional methods of dewatering and filtration, such as vacuum lorries. Green Rhino can be stocked on site for quick deployment. This reduces administration and downtime when processing contaminated water, or surface water built up in bunds, interceptors or for mobile operations when working around oil filled cables.

Green Rhino - bringing innovation to dewatering and filtration for a low carbon, low cost future

Use this dewatering pack instead of a vacuum tanker when pumping out bunds or mobile excavations

Traditional spill care products work by absorbing hydrocarbons, much like a sponge, but the smart technology in Green Rhino® products is far more advanced. Potentially hazardous and polluting hydrocarbons are retained and ‘locked’ into the smart technology, completely eliminating the risk of pollution entering the environment. That’s why these simple spill care products are an effective alternative solution to traditional vacuum lorries and other mechanical processes.

This system removes hydrocarbons such as cable oil, transformer fluid, oil, diesel or petrol. When added to contaminated water, the dewatering ‘pillow’ - which contains our unique smart technology - transforms liquid contaminates into a dry, rubber-like solid. This way, they can be easily collected and disposed of. The system includes a sealable container with 5, 10, or 15 pillows, 5 oil-detection strips, and an oil and sediment filter which pumps the water away.

Green Rhino EnviroPad Green Rhino Oil and Sediment Filter

Green Rhino Manifold Frame System

EVAC Filtration System

The Green Rhino EnviroPad works differently to drip trays, plant absorbent pads and other site mats. It incorporates a smart membrane containing our unique smart technology. This captures and retains spills and drips from workplace activities such as pumps, generators, saws and other petrol-filled machinery. Where other products absorb these pollutants like a sponge which can leak when saturated, the EnviroPad locks them in with its smart technology. All oil and other hydrocarbons are contained as a non-leaching, dry, rubber-like mass, which can be easily disposed of in standard hazardous waste bins. The product significantly reduces the risk of pollution leaking into the environment. It’s also more cost effective, smaller, lighter and easier to use. We can manufacture these in a bespoke sizes, ideal for temporary storage of transformers.

Used by UK Power Networks as standard, this product is ideal for mobile operations where pumping activities take place. It removes oil and sediment, retaining up to 20kg of sediments and 2.5l of oil sheen. It connects to your pump using a simple cable tie. The filter is easy to empty, wash and re-use, and offers a highly effective solution for preventing oil and sediment from entering the environment.

This system allows for very high volumes of water to be processed through Green Rhino Filter Systems. The system, which can be designed to meet the specific needs of your site, allows multiple Green Rhino filters to be attached to high-volume pumps. It reduces and disperses water load while allowing for adequate filtration, and is constructed with chemical- resistant fittings that can withstand high water pressure.

Ideal for industrial water pumping operations such as removal of solids and oil within manholes, bilges, tanks, and chambers ready for discharge to foul sewer. Manufactured in the UK by Capture Green for the European market, this product is a market leader and can be bespoke to fit your specific dewatering needs. Our standard EVAC has been designed as a “single person lift” product, retaining 20kgs of sediment when full.
