For homeowners and small businesses
Tricel Puraflo is an eco-friendly, modular secondary (after a septic tank) or tertiary treatment system (after a wastewater treatment plant). The system uses a peat fibre biofilter system making it one of the most sustainable wastewater treatment systems on the market with very little energy consumption.
Tricel Puraflo works in conjunction with your existing Septic Tank or Tricel Novo where a higher level of effluent filtration is required before being dispersed into the ground.
Secondary & tertiary sewage treatment is the final cleaning process. It improves wastewater quality before it is reused, recycled or discharged to the environment. Our packaged filter system Puraflo may be submitted as part of a tertiary treatment application.
The treatment removes remaining inorganic compounds, and substances, such as nitrogen and phosphorus. Packaged filter systems are required for environmentally sensitive sites such as sites in watershed protection areas.
What is a packaged filter system?
Packaged filter systems are required for environmentally sensitive sites, sites in watershed protection areas, often require enhanced treatment. This is achieved by combining a tertiary sewage treatment plant, with a secondary treatment system, typically an aerobic treatment unit.
The Tricel Puraflo system connects to your existing septic tank/sewage treatment plant. The secondary treated effluent is dosed to Puraflo polishing filter modules and undergoes a third stage or tertiary treatment. The combined system will provide very high level pathogen and nutrient reduction.
