Siphon Drainage Board Tips: Siphon Effect
The problem of urban road waterlogging is a challenge for all drainage projects, and the ability of the drainage system to quick response will greatly affect urban traffic efficiency. In recent years, the development and application of environmental protection materials have continuously matured, and the new drainage and water diversion composite materials have surpassed the traditional underground drainage systems in terms of cost, performance, durability, and construction.
What is "Siphon Drainage Board"?
Traditional underground drainage systems mostly use "passive diversion and drainage". When faced with heavy rainfall, it is difficult to quickly and effectively maintain road safety. Zhonglong Environmental Protection selects high-density polyethylene(HDPE), processes it into a concave-convex board with a cup-shaped surface, and bonds a geotextile layer to form a drainage board. After the entire system is full of water, water is drained out through the siphon effect. Its flow rate per unit area is about three times that of the traditional scheme, and it is an indispensable geosynthetic material in the construction of ecological cities in various countries around the world.

What is the "siphon effect"?
The siphon effect refers to an automatic drainage technology that utilizes the air-pressure difference and the gravity of the liquid. In simple terms, it is the effect where the water pressure inside the storage pipeline is greater than the air pressure at the pipe opening, causing the water to be rapidly drained under the combined action of gravity, atmospheric pressure, and the inertia of the water flow. It is an "active mechanism with passive condition" drainage method.

What are the advantages of Zhonglong's siphon drainage boards?
Zhonglong Environmental Protection uses the same brand-new high-density polyethylene raw material as our HDPE geomembrane to manufacture the siphon drainage boards, making them extremely excellent in raw material performance, which surpass other drainage boards on the market made from recycled materials.
Our siphon drainage board possess excellent physical and chemical strength, with excellent resistance to stretching, tearing, piercing, and chemical corrosion. The cup-shaped convex surface can bear tremendous pressure, ensuring the stability of the three-dimensional drainage space. In addition, covering the convex surface with a geotextile effectively achieves anti-filtration and exhaust gas guidance, while also serving a certain protective function. This composite structure can extend the service life of the concave-convex sheet while ensuring that the drainage space is not blocked.
Zhonglong adopts brand-new high-quality geotextile raw materials, advanced processing equipment, and strict inspection standards. All products are sold directly from the production line warehouse, offering absolute technical service advantages and factory price advantages, making the purchasing process worry-free and comfortable.
