Advanced Treatment Units
Eljen Geotextile Sand Filter
The Eljen GSF, or Geotextile Sand Filter system, is designed to provide treatment and dispersal in the same footprint with easy installation and minimal maintenance. It is used for commercial and residential applications. Utilizing a two-stage pretreatment process, the geotextile modules apply filtered septic tank effluent to the soil, increasing the soil’s ability to accept effluent and increase the long-term acceptance rate. Its design provides increased surface area for biological treatment that greatly exceeds the module’s absorption area. Open-air channels within the module support aerobic bacterial growth on the module’s geotextile fabric interface, surpassing the surface area required for traditional absorption systems. The system is tested and certified by NSF to NSF/ANSI Standard 40. 800-444-1359; www.eljen.com
MicroSepTec EnviroServer ES
The MicroSepTec EnviroServer ES (Extended Storage) is designed for residential and commercial applications. It utilizes pre-engineered, prefabricated MBBR technology. In residential settings, it combines various processes to remove contaminants to ensure safe disposal or reuse of water. The system is designed to be compact, easy to install and low-maintenance, making it suitable for homes and small communities. It also offers efficient wastewater treatment solutions for businesses, commercial buildings and larger establishments, with its extended storage capacity allowing processing of higher volumes of wastewater. 877-473-7842; www.microseptec.com
Norweco Singulair Green
Norweco’s Singulair Green with optional 520-gallon integrated pump tank offers an easy-to-install, all-in-one system for situations that require a downstream pump tank, according to the maker. The system with an optional pump chamber is designed to return clean, highly treated effluent to the environment. 800-667-9326; www.norweco.com
Orenco Systems AdvanTex AX20-RTUV Treatment System
The AdvanTex AX20-RTUV Treatment System from Orenco Systems is a self-contained module that treats typical septic tank effluent to better than secondary standards, with nitrogen reduction and ultraviolet disinfection. It is especially suited for small sites with poor soils or that require shallow burial. It helps protect surface waters and aquifers and is an effective solution for areas that have strict discharge limits, according to the maker. It is installed following a septic tank equipped with Biotube effluent filters. The unit eliminates the need for separate recirculation, treatment, discharge and disinfection tanks and basins and reduces the number of risers and lids needed in the treatment train. 800-348-9843; www.orenco.com
Commercial Onsite Treatment Systems
Anua Synergy BioCoir QuadMod
The Synergy BioCoir QuadMod from Anua is focused on the small commercial market. Systems are a recirculating media biofilter that utilize coconut coir housed in a preassembled pod. Pretreated effluent is time-dosed over the coir media using helical spray nozzles for uniform distribution. After passing through the media, effluent travels to the bottom of the pod and the flow is split, with 80% returning back into the treatment stream and 20% to the final dispersal point. They are designed for both burial and portability by featuring an I-beam steel frame that allows the unit to be picked up and moved. Measuring just over 19 feet long, 7.38 feet wide and 3.42 feet tall, QuadMod systems are designed to fit in standard shipping containers for worldwide transport. 336-547-9338; www.anuainternational.com
Eliminite Commercial C-Series
The Commercial C-Series system from Eliminite is designed to provide reliable treatment with emphasis on total nitrogen reduction for high-strength waste applications such as worker camps, RV parks, restaurants, ski and golf resorts, breweries, mines and agricultural operations. It may be used with locally sourced tanks and components. MetaRocks treatment media is designed to withstand a variety of high-strength waste-loading scenarios, particularly where clogging and odor control are major considerations. The system is scalable and may be adapted to suit specific phasing requirements, site constraints and unique demands. 888-406-2289; www.eliminite.com
Jet Inc. Commercial Systems
Commercial wastewater treatment extended air plants and newer MBBR plants from Jet Inc. are modular, can treat varying strengths and flows from 1,500 to 300,000 gpd and allow for phase build-out. This makes it possible for convenience stores, motels, shopping centers, service stations, factories and subdivisions to be constructed far from municipal treatment options. These systems may also be used for pretreatment before discharging into central systems to reduce overall system load. The time-tested plants utilize a variety of controls and treat wastewater through an aerobic digestion process that enables microscopic living organisms to transform wastewater into a clear, odorless liquid. 800-321-6960; www.jetincorp.com
High-Strength Wastewater Treatment
Lenzyme High Count
Lenzyme High Count is designed to treat high-strength waste. It will rapidly break down wastes to their smallest chain with enzymes and then consume the waste particles with multiple strains of bacteria, according to the maker. It can reduce nitrogen and inoculate aeration systems at startup, rapidly increasing the microbial counts within an aeration unit. 800-223-3083; www.lenzyme.com
Pump Control Panels
SJE Rhombus Model 32S
The Model 32S control panel from SJE Rhombus is designed to alternately control two three-phase pumps in industrial and commercial water and sewage systems using the DPC-4F Pump Control Four Float Controller for pump sequence, alternation, selection, lag pump delay time and alarm. If a high-water alarm condition occurs, a float activates the audible/visual alarm system along with auxiliary contacts for remote alarm. Common applications include lift stations and pump chambers. Models are available with intrinsically safe relay for circuit extension into hazardous locations. It is UL/cUL listed. 888-342-5753; www.sjerhombus.com
