:: On-Site Wastewater Treatment

The Waterloo Biofilter^® is a patented trickle-filter type treatment system which uses an innovative filter medium to treat residential and industrial wastewater. Wastewater is sprayed intermittently onto the medium and is allowed to drain through by gravity. Organic biomass grows quickly within the medium after start-up, oxidizing organic material and nitrifying ammonia in the wastewater as it passes over the biomass layer.

Because the Biofilter medium is contained in a tank, it is effective under all soil or drainage conditions and substantially outperforms its nearest rival the sand filter bed. Existing facilities are treating flows of less than 1000 L/day to more than 300,000 L/day (250 to 90,000 gal/day).

The Waterloo Biofilter^® is a great improvement to the conventional septic system and can have optional add-ons to remove nitrogen, phosphorus and pathogens.
