Rigofill installation - underground drainage system

TRICEL NERO RANGE - STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

Underground drainage system

An underground drainage system comprises pipes, channels, and structures intended to gather and transport surplus water from rainfall, surface runoff, and other origins, diverting it from urban or developed regions.

Its primary function is to mitigate flooding, erosion, and waterlogging by effectively channeling stormwater to suitable outlets such as rivers, lakes, or treatment facilities.

Discover the Tricel Nero Range that contains two solutions: Tricel NeroStor and Tricel Rigofill, and considerations for your project.

Rigofill installation - underground drainage system

Type of Underground drainage system

In this article, we’ll compare two underground drainage systems from the Tricel Nero range.

Nerostor

 

NeroStor, developed by Tricel, is a modular stormwater storage system featuring high-density polyethylene (HDPE) chambers that interconnect seamlessly to create underground storage structures. This design maximizes storage capacity while minimizing required footprint space.

Key Features of Tricel Nerostor

  • Modular Design

NeroStor’s modular design offers flexibility to adapt to diverse site requirements. Installers can customize the size and layout of the storage system to meet specific project needs.

  • High Capacity

These chambers boast substantial stormwater storage capabilities, effectively easing strain on drainage systems during periods of heavy rainfall.

  • Durability

Crafted from HDPE, NeroStor chambers are corrosion-resistant and engineered to endure the demands of underground installation.

  • Easy Installation

With comprehensive installation instructions provided, assembling NeroStor chambers on-site is efficient, lowering labor expenses and installation durations.

Rigofill

 

Rigofill is an innovative stormwater attenuation system that diverges from conventional concrete tanks by employing lightweight plastic modules, which are straightforward to transport and install.

The system is meticulously engineered to enhance water infiltration and optimize storage efficiency.

Key Features of Tricel Rigofill

  • Lightweight Construction

Rigofill modules are crafted from lightweight plastic, facilitating easy handling and transportation to installation sites. This feature simplifies logistics and reduces installation time.

  • Infiltration Capability

The design of Rigofill encourages water infiltration into the surrounding soil, supporting groundwater replenishment and mitigating surface runoff.

  • Versatility

Rigofill modules offer flexibility in layout configurations to meet specific site requirements, optimizing space utilization effectively.

  • Environmental Benefits

By promoting infiltration and groundwater recharge, Rigofill contributes to maintaining natural hydrological cycles and fostering sustainable urban development practices.

Main differences between these 2 Underground drainage system

1. Material: Nerostor utilizes HDPE chambers known for their durability and corrosion resistance. In contrast, Rigofill modules are crafted from lightweight plastic, offering similar robustness and resistance qualities.

2. Installation: Both systems feature straightforward installation processes. Nerostor’s modular design provides flexibility to adapt to various site constraints effectively.

3. Storage Capacity: Both systems offer substantial storage capacity for stormwater management. Nerostor’s modular chambers are designed to optimize storage efficiency, potentially offering a more efficient use of space compared to Rigofill modules.

4. Infiltration: Rigofill is specifically engineered to enhance water infiltration into the surrounding soil, making it ideal for projects focused on groundwater recharge and sustainable drainage solutions.

What system to choose for what project ?

Objective:

Tricel Rigofill aims to mitigate floods and manage stormwater volume by temporarily storing runoff. Tricel Nerostor systems focus on promoting infiltration and groundwater recharge by facilitating the absorption of stormwater into the ground.

Components:

Attenuation systems like Rigofill typically include storage tanks or basins with controlled outlets. Soakaway systems such as Nerostor consist of underground structures filled with permeable materials to enhance infiltration.

Application:

Attenuation systems are ideal for urban areas with limited space for surface detention ponds. Soakaway systems are suitable for locations with well-draining soils and where promoting groundwater recharge is beneficial.
