Advanced Treatment Units

Anua AeroCell

The AeroCell recirculating media filter from Anua utilizes synthetic media housed in an engineered pod. The open-cell foam cubes have high surface area and porosity, which balance water movement and oxygen availability. The media will not degrade over time. Pretreated effluent is sprayed over the media using special helical spray nozzles, which provide uniform distribution over the entire surface area within the pod. The treated effluent is recirculated through the media multiple times, ensuring optimum treatment. The media properties and timed dosing allow for large loading rates, ensuring a small footprint. It provides significant nitrogen reduction and is certified to NSF/ANSI 40 Class 1. Multiple pod sizes are available for commercial facilities. 336-547-9338; www.anuainternational.com

BioMicrobics RetroFAST

The BioMicrobics RetroFAST septic system is small enough to be inserted directly into a new or existing septic tank through a minimum 18-inch manhole. It is made up of a white liner, several blue media blocks, an airlift device and a remote blower. The oxygenated water supports the growth of useful microorganisms on the surface of the media. These attached-growth microorganisms break down the organic material in the wastewater. The microbial growth on the media surface is sloughed off by aeration. Oxygenated water with low organic content will be delivered to a drainfield, promoting a breakdown of the existing biomat layer, thereby improving soil and drainage. 800-753-3278; www.biomicrobics.com

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

Drainfield Restoration

IMET Septic Remediation Modules 

IMET Septic Remediation Modules are inserted into existing septic tanks. The modules house extremely large and diverse aerobic microbial populations within the pore structures of the multimedia in its fixed bed. In addition, air bubbles are entrapped within the multimedia. As a result, an aerobic environment within the septic tank is sustained at all times. The result, when installed correctly, is very low effluent BOD and TSS concentrations while eliminating odor related to hydrogen sulfide formation. They can be also expanded to significantly minimize total nitrogen when it is required. Aerobic microorganisms continuously seed the effluent, therefore also remediating failing drainfields. 440-799-3135; www.imet.net

Excavating Equipment

Ditch Witch MT164

The microtrencher’s compact footprint provides increased flexibility with minimal disruption to surrounding infrastructure in urban areas. 580-336-4402; www.ditchwitch.com

Hydra-Flex Ripsaw HD

Expose underground utilities and pipelines in a nondestructive and safe way using the Ripsaw HD rotating turbo nozzle from Hydra-Flex. Its cone-shaped flow pattern is suitable for potholing. The nozzle’s 0-degree stream rotates at an 18-degree cone of coverage, which increases impingement to dig faster and use less water — better results with fewer GPMs. A slower stream rotation increases digging power, improves control, and reduces the nozzle’s wear and tear to lengthen its life. Built with heavy-duty coating, stainless steel housing, and tungsten carbide wear surfaces, its long-lasting, premium components stand tall against frost, shale and rocky soil. Its coating is nonconductive, which provides extra safety for both users and utilities. Repair kits extend the nozzle’s life and have you back up and running in just 10 minutes. 952-808-3640; www.hydraflexinc.com

It was designed to friction fit into the tank riser, which allows it to be placed as deep as practical. It has an R-value of R10 and a rubber seal around the perimeter that keeps it in place and provides a nearly air-tight seal, which also keeps the cold air out and the heat in the tank. It will also aid in keeping the anaerobic and aerobic bacteria from going dormant in the septage effluent, ultimately increasing the effectiveness of the treatment process and increasing the longevity of the soil treatment system. 320-980-1737; www.thermodiscmn.com

Septic System Bacteria

Century Chemical Bio-Tab

Bio-Tab from Century Chemical is a tablet that sinks to the bottom of septic tanks where buildup problems begin. There, self-reproducing bacteria and enzymes gradually dissolve to create a growing area of activity, digesting and liquefying organic waste — treating the entire system, including the drainfield, according to the maker. Common household chemicals such as anti-bacterial products, bleaches, detergents or a heavy presence of antibiotics can kill already-low levels of bacteria in the septic system. When this happens, waste is no longer being digested, resulting in buildups of solids that plug the system and give off offensive odors. Bio-Tab establishes itself by working from the inside out, and regular usage — combined with routine pumping — can aid and support the natural digestion of waste, helping septic systems maintain good working condition. 800-348-3505; www.bio-tab.com

J&J Portable Sanitation Products NuTank

NuTank septic system treatment from J&J Portable Sanitation Products is designed to replenish the enzymes in a septic tank.
