The discrete and silent treatment plant provides the ideal solution for residential and commercial sites that require an ultra-compact system, including domestic dwellings, refurbishments and rural barn conversions.

Combining the features and trusted performance of the company's Solido systems, PTA has ambitious plans for the Solido SMART to become the next market leader.

"Its advanced technical qualities, high-quality design and durable components makes the Solido SMART one of the most sophisticated sewage treatment plants available on the market.

"Our Solido systems have already proven to be a very popular choice in the marketplace and we believe our customers will be greatly impressed with our enhanced solution and the increased performance that it offers. And what's more, its smart design means a reduction to installation and maintenance costs, making it an extremely cost effective solution."

With low operational costs of only 49 kwh per person per year, the Solido SMART offers long term savings. It is fully CE marked designed and tested in accordance with EN 12566-3.

The launch comes on the back of the company introducing its leading Conder ASP sewage treatment plant in a new material high-density polyethylene (HDPE).

Klargester Grease Trap - NSG1 500 Litres

Klargester NSG1

Grease Traps are an effective and hygienic method of separating fat and grease from waste water flow.

Klargester grease traps will, by the removal of fat and grease:

• Greatly reduce incidents of blocked drains from catering establishments
• Improve the performance of septic tanks and field drains
• Prevent contamination of small sewage treatment plants

Grease traps are designed for small restaurants, public houses and canteens

Grease Separators: For applications such as larger restaurants, hotels, etc. where a grease separator should be considered to give additional volume.

Operation & Installation

Traps and separators allow fats and grease to naturally separate out from water, allowing their removal prior to the wastewater reaching the drainage system. The trap or separator should be installed close to the source of contamination before any foul waste can enter the drainage flow and to suit the expected liquid temperature.

Comes with free pedestrian duty cover and frame. Vehicle duty covers are available

New Rules For Using Septic Tanks & Small Packaged Sewage Treatment Plants

As of January 2015, you, as a homeowner, are now responsible for your choice, installation and maintenance of your wastewater system under a new code of practice introduced by the Environment Agency. You have a legal responsibility to minimise the impact of your sewage waste if you manage it within the bounds of your property e.g. with a septic tank or sewage treatment plant.

If you have a septic tank that discharges directly to a surface water you will need to replace or upgrade your treatment system by 1 January 2020, or when you sell your property if before this date.

www.gov.uk

How to follow the rules and protect your local environment

• We strongly advise you always get expert, specialist advice when it comes to sewage waste treatment; the effluent has the potential to be both a serious health hazard and pollute the local environment if it is not properly managed. You are also at risk of prosecution if the regulations are not upheld.
• Although you no longer need to register a small domestic tank or keep five year maintenance records, your septic tank or sewage treatment plant must still be fit for purpose, comply with industry standard EN 12566, and be properly sized, installed, and maintained by an authorised person.
• You are limited to discharging a maximum of 2,000 litres of treated sewage per day into the ground or 5,000 litres of treated sewage per day to flowing water. If you discharge more you will need a permit.
• Never neglect your wastewater system; out of sight is not out of mind! Like boilers and cars, septic tanks and sewage treatment plants need to be regularly serviced to operate efficiently.
• If you have a septic tank that discharges directly to a surface water you will need to replace or upgrade your treatment system by 1 January 2020, or when you sell your property if before this date.

Despite their high efficiency rating, treatment plants don’t cost significantly more to buy and install than a septic tank and require a smaller drainage field while maintenance and running costs are relatively low. However minor the impact on the environment, any serious problem caused by a failed septic tank or sewage treatment plant can have a major impact on the finances of the system’s owner.

How the BioFicient works

The moving aerated media process used is a compact development of the traditional biological process and provides a more effective and complete means of reducing the loads.

1. Raw sewage gravitates to the unit where it is received in the primary settlement zone. Here, gross solids and other social debris settle to the bottom of the tank where they remain until the tank requires de-sludging.  Settled sewage is displaced from primary zone and enters the first of : two sequential moving aerated media reactors.

2. Media and liquid circulation in each zone is achieved through the use of a compressor and diffuser, which introduces fresh air into each compartment. The liquor is constantly re-circulated and contacts the moving media and as it does so, it is purified by the microorganisms (biomass) growing on the surface of the media and within the moving liquor. Excess growth of biomass is shed as solid particles into the liquor.

3. The final settlement tank is where humus solids settle to form sludge.  At preset intervals, portions of the sludge and liquor are returned to the primary tank for additional treatment.

4. Final effluent is displaced from the final settlement tank. With regulator approval, it is suitable for discharge to a watercourse or drainage field.
