PACKAGED SEWAGE TREATMENT - ECOPLAN UNITS

For medium scale urban communities and commercial, recreatiuonal and educational complexes, the Ecoplan range of package sewage treatment plants provide a cost effective means of onsite wastwater treatment for reuse or discharge.

One of the obvious benefits is that the system is built in a quality controlled factory, without the disruption of rainy weather and concrete pours, problems of site security and uncontrolled labourers etc. Typically the unit is built in the factory over 6 weeks, trucked to the site in 1 day, installed in 1 day and commissioned the next day.

Ecoplan truck to site Easy to deliver to remote locations Easy to install with minimal infrastructure

Traditional sewage systems are static, large footprint and energy intensive. WRG's preferred sewage treatment is smaller scale, biologically aerobic, low energy input, minimal odour, mostly chemical-free with fast reaction times suitable for reuse applications. With stainless steel components and contact areas throughout the units never rust or corrode as often seen with concrete poured complexes.

Process Overview

The Ecoplan unit is a stand-alone packaged sewage treatment plant comprising primary settlement, aeration, secondary settlemt, aerobic digestion, accumulation and disinfection.

Ecoplan Process

The Ecoplan unit is designed to accept raw unsettled sewage and produce high quality final effluent without the need for ancillary tankage or equipment. As the final appearance of the unit can be blend into the landscape the units have green or orange exteriors and may be buried up to deck level. The units are covered, preventing noise and insect nusiance. The units are modular and lend to future expansion in either series or parrallel formation.

Achievable Results

Ecoplan Packaged Sewage Treatment benefits include:
Fast effective action equal to larger STPs (typical BOD = 20 or less)
Small footprint (largest unit 12000x2300m can fit into 40FCL)
Unobtrusive - above ground or buried to deck level
No adverse smells as aerobic process
Flexible use - prefabricated unit can be moved or be mobile
No chemicals required - totally rapid biological aerobic driven
Unattended Operation - suited for telemtry for remote monitoring
Intensive effective action - full aeration blower action
Minimal maintenance - Weekly inspection, periodic desludging
Anticorrosive - stainless steel components throughout
Durable performance - pumps contantly active = no dry outs
No Pressure points = no shaft breakage as with RBCs
Potential integration with tertiary wastewater treatment
