How Green Wastewater Treatment Systems Works

The world is becoming increasingly sensitive to the environment with the focus being on saving the most out of daily interactions. Traditional waste water treatment methods have been rendered wasteful. Some areas are sensitive which means that the traditional methods do not work. Modern green wastewater treatment options come in handy. They do not involve the purchase of expensive gadgets or setting up of elaborate infrastructure.

Natural methods of treating sewer have been fronted as the best alternative. The system uses locally available materials which are easy to maintain and do not consume extra energy. In fact, they make your compound and operations green. An aerobic tank is used as the entry point for the water. It helps in absorbing the unpleasant odor through a combination of sphagnum, straws, reeds and twigs.

Other plants and animals that are native to the ecosystem are also used in place of chemicals. The aim is to make the entire process as natural as possible. Other plants that work effectively are bulrush, duckweed, reeds and any other appropriate plant that may be available and effective. Using different plants ensures that as many impurities as possible are absorbed at each stage.

A biological filter is also used to clear fine particles from the water. It is made up of a bucket that is filled with stones and pebbles of different sizes. Perforated pipes are used to collect the water after it has gone through the sand for filtering. The size of the bucket or tank will depend on the amount of waste generated from your premises or plant. The amount of time it takes for water to go through filtration and size of pebbles will determine its purity.

It is impossible to eliminate salt nutrients through filtration. The solution lies in the use of algae and other higher plants that are still available from the ecosystem. There is a special tank that is used for salt absorption. The resulting algae and plants are later used to make compost or as animal feeds. Fish and other insects are also introduced into the pond to feed on algae.

Your water is not yet ready for release or use in the natural environment. Further cleaning is done using snails, green plants, micro-organisms and fish. This process helps in aeration and raising the level of purity by removing finer pollutants. It is later added into a sludge tank. So far, no chemicals or manufactured substances have been added yet your water is considerably clean. This is a completely natural process.

With the elimination of micro-organisms and organic residue, your water can now flow to the common mussel. It is in fact ready for use on demonstration ponds. It does not pose any health risk to users, the environment or those who come into contact with it. Root zone plants are used at the final stages of cleaning which allows the clean water to flow back into nature.

The design and components of each system depend on the kind of waste being eliminated, resources and space available. With and expert in eco-friendly wastewater treatment, you will get a customized system. It helps you take advantage of initiatives that are geared towards conserving the environment.
