Stormwater filtration system receives NJDEP interim certification

Feb. 25, 2009 -- Imbrium Systems announced that its Jellyfish™ filter system has received interim certification from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP). Many states look to New Jersey -- which has a very stringent review and approval process -- as a benchmark to guide their own certification of new technologies. The NJDEP has done an extensive review of the Jellyfish filter system's features and performance attributes, including analysis of laboratory results.

Design engineers, specifiers and contractors have been eagerly awaiting NJDEP certification of Jellyfish as a stormwater treatment option. Jellyfish has been shown to remove greater than 85% of Sil-Co-Sil 106 fine sediment while operating at the unprecedented flow rate of 50 gpm per cartridge. The Jellyfish's unique high surface area filtration tentacles are combined into lightweight, long-lasting cartridges with a much smaller footprint than other systems.

Jellyfish was launched in the spring of 2008, and it quickly received other key approvals: New Jersey Corporation for Advanced Technology (NJCAT) verification; the Ontario Ministry of Environment's New Environmental Technology Evaluation (NETE) certificate; and the Washington State Department of Ecology's TAPE Pilot Use Level Designation.

Imbrium Systems designs and develops stormwater treatment technologies to protect water resources from pollutants.
