This paper describes the initial tests investigating the basic hydraulic properties and the clogging potential of Capiphon. A pilot-scale biofilter using a trough 3m long and 0.6 x 0.6m in cross section was used to test the variables affecting the drainage characteristics of Capiphon as an underdrain material (such as length, slope, hydraulic head, and type of sand media).

The tests were conducted using two different species of green algal that were encouraged to grow in the biofilter device for several weeks before draining. The results indicated that the biofouling had only a small effect on the discharge rates, even though the algal growth was extensive

Drainage Characteristics of Capiphon Belt and Pipe - Some Comparisons with slotted pipe with sock - 1116 KB
Paper presented to the International Commission on Irrigation & Drainage (Adelaide June 2012): Initial studies showed that Capiphon drainage technology out performs slotted pipe with sock (Drain Coil) in soil. It also had a higher flow-rate in free water at low hydraulic head. In soil when flooded, Capiphon commenced flow before, and continued to drain long after Drain Coil had ceased. Its capillary and syphonic action resulted in drawing water upwards, pulling the water table down to at leas
Final Report On Evaluation of Capiphon Drain Belt - 596 KB
TRI/Environmental was commissioned by the AASHTO APEL program to test a new product submitted for use by state Department of Transportation’s (DOTs) in the United States. The purpose of the project was to characterize basic properties of a water extracting mat used in soils. The name of the product is Capiphon Drain Belt, produced by Capiphon USA.
