ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STUDY<br />

Rn: 03-033 CONTAINER TERMINAL PLOCE <strong>PAGE</strong>: 10/1<br />

It follows that the separator with catchment <strong>of</strong> app. 6 ha receives in totally<br />

app. 880 l/s and the separator with catchment area receives in totally app.<br />

1250 l/s.<br />

The separators are foreseen as gravity separators with sedimentation and<br />

oil collection space with volume <strong>of</strong> 15 m3.<br />

Such solution conforms to water right conditions set forth by the institution<br />

«Hrvatske vode», item No. 6 <strong>of</strong> the said conditions. It is also practice in<br />

Croatia to use such separators within big traffic routes and handling areas.<br />

The flow velocity in the separator is limited to 0.3 m/s and oil retention is<br />

possible with submerged partition walls.<br />

It is im<strong>port</strong>ant to note that the relevant intensity <strong>of</strong> 25 l/s/ha shall be let<br />

through such separators whereas bigger flows (with stronger intensities)<br />

shall be let through by-pass placed along the separator. Both waters shall<br />

be accepted on the separator outlet and they run through common pipe<br />

towards the recipient.<br />

The mentioned intensity <strong>of</strong> 25 l/s/ha is named, according to our<br />

regulations, as critical intensity in which process major contamination from<br />

the drained surface is collected together with water. Consequently, this<br />

intensity has to be let through the separator and the excessive amount<br />

through the overflow.<br />

The stated results from the fact that the precipitation hydrograph has<br />

usually a form <strong>of</strong> Gaussian curve, consequently every rain starts with the<br />

intensity «0» and intensifies to the maximum with subsequent trend to<br />

decline. Therefore, major contamination flushing from the surface<br />

develops when precipitation starts and this part <strong>of</strong> precipitation (up to 25<br />

l/s/ha) flows through the separator.<br />

It is im<strong>port</strong>ant to note that such separator must be maintained regularly,<br />

implying their monthly control and, if necessary, their emptying from oil<br />

and deposited material after performed control, at least twice a year. The<br />

separator has to be cleaned also after a possible incident – pouring out <strong>of</strong><br />

bigger amount <strong>of</strong> waste or hazardous substance reaching the separator<br />

through the drainage system.<br />

Such drainage solution does not provide for retention space than floating<br />

substances (fats and oils) and deposited substances (sand, particles<br />

heavier than water) shall be collected in the separator within the operating<br />

chamber.<br />
