Aerobic Systems
The efficient five-stage Aerobic Treatment System is designed with these components:
- Pretreatment tank where influent enters.
- Aeration chamber where oxygen is pumped into the waste water.
- Clarifier chamber where the clear, odorless effluent rises.
- Anoxic media cell
- Holding tank effluent ready for discharge.
- Extremely quiet, efficient aerator and pump.
- Unique solid-state control center monitors and controls the system.
| The aerobic treatment system is designed with five components: a pretreatment tank, an aeration chamber, media cell and a final clarifier and a pump tank.
The pretreatment tank, the first component of the system, begins the anaerobic decomposition of the influent. It also holds any non bio-degradables inadvertently added to the system.

| The aeration chamber, the heart of this activated sludge sewage treatment system, introduces oxygen by pump into the sewage. This aeration intimately mixes the organic materials of the sewage with the bacterial population, allowing the bacteria to attack and reduce the organic materials.
Nitrifying bacteria present in the aeration chamber convert ammonia to nitrate. Any activated sludge settling in the final clarifier chamber is reintroduced into the aeration chamber by sewage movement in the aeration chamber.

| As solids settle in the clarifier, a clear, odorless effluent rises. This nitrified effluent passes into the anoxic media cell where additional carbon is added to increase the denitrification further. After this, the effluent passes into the pump tank.
The pump tank then returns a portion of the daily flow back to the Pre-Treatment tank for exposure the untreated anaerobic influent. The combination of these processes reduces Total Nitrogen by over 85% of the influent levels. Additional effluent is stored for discharge through the chosen method of disposal.
