Our Mission
At Flocate, we are dedicated to providing an effective and efficient solution to meet or exceed your NPDES and any other relevant compliance requirements for job site stormwater management. We understand the regulatory pressures of modern construction and industrial sites, and we strive to provide a seamless path to environmental accountability through superior technology.
Our Equipment: The Flocate System
The Flocate System is a patented, straightforward process built to pull sediment out of dirty water fast. We don’t use bulky, over-complicated filters that clog up and slow down your job. Instead, our setup uses a gravity-fed, flow-through design combined with anionic food-grade polymers to settle out the grit.
This design allows us to trap sediment while keeping your flow rates high. We use safe, eco-friendly materials to get the water clean enough for discharge without the headache of traditional filtration.
High-Volume Groundwater Remediation for Compliance
Construction sites often encounter sediment-heavy groundwater that must be professionally treated before it can be legally discharged into sewer systems or local reservoirs. Flocate provides a specialized filtration process to bridge the gap between dirty site water and environmental safety.
The Flocate Multi-Stage Filtration System
Our system is engineered for efficiency and space-saving deployment, consisting of a sequential flow from site pump to final discharge.

Our Sediment Removal Process
Typical Groundwater Pond
Dirty groundwater: sediment needs to be removed before discharge
Turbid Groundwater
Dirty groundwater that needs to be treated before discharge into sewer system or nearby reservoir
Setup Demo
Typical Flocate Setup
Flocate setup with two weir tanks and a processing trailer
Step 1
Step 1
Pumped groundwater flowing through hose into first weir tank before entering the top of the tank
Step 2
Step 2
Pumped groundwater flowing from hose into top of first weir tank making contact with anionic polymer logs to start reaction. The reaction will begin flocculation process with sediment sinking to the bottom of the tank while cleaner water rises to the top
Step 3
Step 3
Groundwater from Step 2 flowing through white pipe into identical second weir tank for more reaction time with polymer. Groundwater will be cleaner in second tank than first before leaving the second weir tank for the processing trailer
Step 4
Step 4
Groundwater from Step 3 flowing from second weir tank to top of processing trailer
Step 5
Step 5
Groundwater flowing through top of trailer in proprietary process
Step 6
Step 6
Groundwater from Step 5 falling into the lower level of processing trailer through jute yarn and powdered polymer for further reacting, cleaning, and polishing
Step 7
Step 7
Treated groundwater from Step 6 leaving the trailer into sewer inlet

Implementation and Support
Our process is backed by full-service support to ensure maximum performance on-site. Because our equipment can be leased weekly, monthly, or annually, we integrate directly into your project timeline.
Our experts assist in the initial setup design and logistics, establishing the correct equipment configuration and precise polymer dosage. We also develop a comprehensive discharge plan and provide the necessary maintenance and on-site training to ensure your team can operate the system with total confidence.
Our Process Works
Stop fighting with clogged silt bags and get back to work. Our sediment removal process is proven to handle the toughest groundwater and keeps your site in the clear.
