Apparatus for treating runoff
An apparatus 10 for treating runoff comprises a downpipe 14 having a downpipe inlet and a downpipe outlet; a treatment vessel 50; and an energy dissipater 52 disposed within the treatment vessel. In use, the energy dissipater is submerged by liquid which accumulates within the treatment vessel. The energy dissipater comprises a substantially cylindrical dissipation chamber 62 having a dissipater inlet 66 provided in fluid communication with the downpipe outlet (64 fig. 6), and a dissipater outlet 68 arranged to discharge fluid into the treatment vessel. The energy dissipater is configured to promote rotational flow of liquid entering the dissipation chamber through the dissipater inlet.
