After extended dry periods will the captured pollutants decompose and omit odours and any leachate?
This process can occur in any wet sump system. However, if the unit is cleaned on a regular basis, the opportunity for it to occur is reduced significantly. This problem is less likely to occur in the RSF 4000 unit due to the cleaning process whereby the unit is fully dewatered and all pollutants removed. In other wet-sump systems there is usually no dewatering facility so the water remains in the unit for extended periods of time, together with many of the fine settled toxicants. Also, each RSF 4000 unit is supplied with bolt-down, gas tight lids to prevent unauthorised access and the release of any odours.
