Solar Air Wastewater Process

    1) Pretreatment tank, where effluent enters from home.

    2) Aeration chamber pumps oxygen into the sewage.

    3) Clarifier, where clear odorless effluent rises.

    4) Chlorinator for disinfection (where required).

    5) Holding tank stores chlorinated effluent for discharge

        through chosen method of disposal.

    6) Linear air pump; extremely quiet and efficient.

    7) Complete control center monitors and controls the system,

        assuring it functions at a very low cost.

Solar Air Aerobic Wastewater Treatment Process

In the first stage of the treatment process, the Pretreatment Tank receives raw sewage from the drainage source and traps any non-biodegradable waste. Then, in the Aeration Chamber, oxygen is introduced into the wastewater with an extremely quiet and efficient Linear Air Pump. The aeration process creates an oxygen-rich environment which promotes the growth of aerobic bacteria, microscopic organisms that digest the solids in the wastewater.  Next, the Clarifier separates the solids (called “activated sludge”) from the liquid, causing the sludge to settle to the bottom. Then the sludge is returned to the aeration chamber to be remixed. The clear liquid separates from the solids and continues to flow upward to the discharge pipe where it passes through the Chlorinator for disinfection.  The Holding Tank stores the chlorinated effluent for discharge through the chosen method of disposal. The Solar Air Control Center monitors and controls the system, so that it functions with very little cost and maintenance from the homeowner.
