Quantum Sewage Treatment Plants

The Vibro-Screen™ allows organic sewage solids to enter the tank without problems, by screening them out.

The screened sewage falls down into the digestion chamber where a microbial 'soup' develops. This digests the pollutants in the remaining sewage. 

The cleaned sewage then enters the final settlement chamber where live bacteria settle out at the bottom. These bacteria are constantly returnedby the Settled Sludge Return (SSR) to the digestion chamber.

The floating sludge that forms in the clarification chamber is returned to the Vibro-Screen via the Floating Sludge Return (FSR)  pipe. This task is a manual one with most plants, which need this crust removing, by hand, regularly.

Most sewage treatment plants do not work well when they are under-loaded. Most can only work efficiently if they are more than half loaded, - a 6 person plant needing at least 3 people using it. This is because the bacteria need enough food to sustain them. The QUANTUM sewage treatment plant can be turned down to match the number of people using it, so works just as well with 1 person as with 10.

The air is supplied by a small air blower, housed in a seperate compartment, under the lid, which operates all the process stages. There are no moving parts or electrical components in the tank itself.
