What is the role of a geocellular unit?
The unit creates structural void space for temporary stormwater storage. The surrounding geotextile or membrane determines whether the completed system infiltrates, attenuates or stores water.
Geocellular infiltration units provide modular underground capacity for stormwater infiltration, temporary storage, and controlled release in engineered drainage projects.
Stormwater Drainage Tanks, Geocellular Water Management System.
Geocellular infiltration units create modular underground voids for stormwater storage, controlled drainage, and site-specific infiltration.
For wider sustainable drainage context, refer to the U.S. EPA green infrastructure guidance.

Rainwater Retention, Attenuation and Infiltration
The Stormwater Drainage Tanks can be mainly used for rainwater Retention, Attenuation, Infiltration. The drainage system and water storage-permeation and filtration system along side the roads, parking lot, water storage and drainage for the ecological shallow ridges, living community, factories and enterprises, municipal roads, viaducts and bridges, park and scenic spot, it will be the necessity for construction of sponge city.
Engineering Characteristics of Geocellular Infiltration Units
Space saving: With underground installation, the system will not occupy valuable subaerial space.
Lower Cost: Less costly than concrete and metal storage systems.
Maximum Storage Capacity: Modular units allow flexibility of shape, ideal for narrow strips or restricted areas.
Construted Rapidly: Intallation construction simplified and minimize the construction period.
No Later Maintenance: Barely no post-maintenance after installation.

Notes to process flow diagram: upon multiple pretreatment steps taken on initial rainwater, it could ensure the quality of the harvested rainwater. Rainwater storage modules are used to store rainwater, which ensures the water quality, small occupied space, easy and convenient installation and also makes it more environmental-friendly and safer. With pressure control pump and rainwater controller, rainwater can be easily delivered to water consuming point. Besides, rainwater controller also could show the water level of Modular Geocellular Tank Units in real time, so as to reach the water consuming point.

Engineering Workflow for Geocellular Infiltration Units
- First, confirm the contributing drainage area.
- Next, define the project design storm.
- Then, verify available excavation depth.
- Afterward, test the native soil infiltration rate.
- Meanwhile, review groundwater and utility constraints.
- Moreover, select suitable runoff pretreatment.
- For example, include an accessible silt trap.
- Therefore, calculate the required storage volume.
- Consequently, set the modular system footprint.
- However, check vehicle and construction loads.
- In addition, confirm minimum cover requirements.
- Similarly, coordinate inlet and outlet elevations.
- Next, specify the geotextile or membrane envelope.
- Then, provide inspection and maintenance access.
- Finally, document the operating and maintenance plan.
