Waste Treatment Machines
Waste Treatment Machines
(OP)
I'm looking for waste stream treatment machines to be used in apartment buildings and condominiums in South America. If you have any kind of information regarding this matter, I would be thankfull.





RE: Waste Treatment Machines
I am looking too for water & waste treatment equipment
to be used for private houses. The aim is to convert household liquid waste into water to be used for garden irrigation.
I realize we are seeking similiar types of equipment and
I will share any information that I will aquire during my search, on a reciprocal basis. I am interested to sell
this equipment in Israel.
I would appreciate any help you may provide in my search.
Yours

Used to be called Klargester, widely-used in the Caribbean since they have low maintenance/operator requirements. For further references contact cabtech@surfbvi.com
RE: Waste Treatment Machines
so far I haven't found any equipment that would serve our purposes. But if I find anything I'll sure let you know.

Try talking to Orenco Systems in Oregon. They have developed a good textile trickling filter that can effectively reduce TSS, BOD, and Nitrogen levels to less than 10 mg/l. Check out Orenco.com, The system is called Advantex. The Advantex system may not be in their web site as the product is just being introduced.
For ground application as irrigation water some sort of dissinfection would have to be used as well (such as UV disinfection). However, these disinfection units tend to be to expensive for a single residence. A good alternative may be a sub surface drip irrigation system for waste disposal. Geoflow makes a product to do just this. They have a web site at www.geoflow.com. I've used their system on a few designs and it seems to work pretty well.
Good Luck!

In Canada, we do not irrigate treated effluent from household systems, largely due to Department of Health biases and lack of knowledge. There is an Australian company called BioCycle which claims to have 100's of such facilities using above ground irrigation. BioCycle is a simple anaerobic coarse solids separation chamber followed by an aeration chamber (with some fixed film media), and then by a clarifier. All biosolids are wasted directly to the anaerobic chamber (non-mixed). The clarified effluent is then used for shallow above or below ground irrigation. Certain areas of the US also promote shallow irrigation practices (in more arid areas of the US). There ae also some interesting technology developments in Canada. One company (http://www.hydroxyl.com) has developed a purely physical/chemical process for shipboard application which creates a highly treated effluent (less than 10 mg/L BOD and TSS). The is also another Canadian company that uses a low pressure membrane technology (Z-Weed) to generate a high quality effluent for water reuse (for toilet flushing, urinals, etc.) http://www.zenon.ca . Many provinces have "dual plumbing" codes which allow for recycled wastewater to be used for toilets, etc. For further infomration you can contact me at AquaDoc@Canada.com

But, we are wondering if anyone has a listing of other sources that would processes or otherwise use perc.
Would appreciate any help or comments.
