CONTACT US | MENU Home Environmental Services Waste Treatment Process Waste Treatment Process Explore Our on-site Effluent Treatment Plant can handle 5000 m3 of aqueous waste per day. The waste is treated using an Activated Sludge Treatment process: The Activated Sludge Treatment process is contained in the Bio-treatment tanks which consist of two 5000 m3 Aeration Tanks and two 3000 m3 Final Clarifiers Special acclimatised bacteria are held in suspension in the Aerators The suspension is kept oxygenated using large volume blowers, which drive air into the system via fine bubble diffusers at the base of the Aeration Tanks As effluent is fed in to the Aerators the bugs degrade the organic components The system is “hydraulically full” i.e. as waste enters the Aerators at the base, treated effluent is forced from the top into the Final Clarifiers. The Final Clarifiers are designed to return activated sludge back into the Aerators via a return line from the base of the Clarifier and allow clean effluent to discharge to the Estuary For more information, please contact the Environmental Services team.
