  • Storm water harvesting

Project Examples



Project Example Development plans Witten Development plans no. 170s and 170n in Witten
  • Client: Wastewater Utility of the City of Witten (ESW)
  • Duration: 2004 - 2006
  • Analysis and evaluation of technical alternatives for storm water management regarding the development plans n° 170s (34,000 m² settlement area) and 170n (31,000 m²)
  • Services provided: Infrastructural planning with technical-economic comparison of basin-percolation / infiltration-trench system vs. separated sewage system with storm water tank
Project Example New settlement area Bonn-Röttgen New settlement area "Am Hölder" in Bonn-Röttgen
