Filters

Anua BioCoir

The BioCoir recirculating media biofilter from Anua is designed to be simple to install and easy to operate. It provides stable treatment across a broad range of applications, with no constantly running, noisy blowers or motors, according to the maker. It uses a coconut coir media housed in a preassembled pod. Coir refers to the fibers that make up the thick husk of a coconut. The coconut fiber is low cost, an upcycled resource and high in lignin content, which results in a durable material. Pretreated effluent is time-dosed over the media using helical spray nozzles to provide uniform distribution. Treatment is optimized by recirculating effluent through the media multiple times. It is certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 40, Class I and third-party tested to reduce nitrogen by more than 50%. Residential and commercial configurations are available. 336-547-9338; www.anuainternational.com

BioMicrobics SaniTEE

SaniTEE nonclog effluent screens from BioMicrobics deflect solids back into a tank, while simultaneously attenuating surge flow. They drop in a standard 4-inch septic tank (for new builds or retrofitted) outlet tee. They are easily cleaned with a clean-in-place swab handle with a Buna-N disk fastened to the shaft. To clean, move the swab handle up and down to pass the swab through the center several times to act as a reverse pump to dislodge debris in the filter or angled slots. No removal or running water is necessary. Solids touching the vertical surface of the screen tend to slough off and fall back into the septic tank, making it somewhat self-cleaning. In general, the 4-, 8- and 16-inch screen should be for use on conventional and advanced septic systems, and is suitable for all types of commercial high-strength wastewater treatment systems. 800-753-3278; www.biomicrobics.com

SeptiTech STAAR filter systems

SeptiTech STAAR (Smart Trickling Anaerobic/Aerobic Recirculating) filter systems are designed for residential and commercial properties with minimal operator oversight, while delivering consistent treatment during peak, low or intermittent flows.

The biological trickling filter technology also maintains low levels of Nitrate-N, with all below-grade components that fit in watertight concrete, plastic or fiberglass tanks. Smart technology allows the system to go into a sleep mode to achieve lower operating costs and power requirements. Systems are ETV-EPA verified and NSF/ANSI Standard 40/245 certified. 800-753-3278; www.septitech.com

Sim/Tech Filter STF-100A2

The STF-100A2 pressure filter from Sim/Tech Filter helps maintain proper and efficient year-round operation of mounds, sand filters and other pressurized distribution systems. The low head-loss (0.21 psi) pressure filter mounts on the discharge side of an effluent pump, acting as a last line of defense to prevent plugged holes and reduce effluent TSS. This mounting location also extends the time between servicing. The vortex action created by the pump scrubs the screen and the backflow through the filter after the pump shuts off, washing debris out. A single 2-inch filter can handle flow rates up to 83.8 gpm. It can be designed to handle almost any flow rate or load. Larger 3- and 4-inch filters are available. The standard screen filters to 1/16 inch, and optional socks allow for additional filtration to 0.024, 0.007 or 0.004 inch. 888-999-3290; www.simtechfilter.com
