Vortex Sewage Treatment Plant 4 Population

The VORTEX Sewage Treatment Plant For Up To 4 People

The most advanced, cost effective sewage treatment plant in the UK.

10 Benefits of the VORTEX system:

1.     Low cost high performance - up to 98.9% pollution reduction.
2.     10 Year tank warranty.
3.     Small footprint and easy to install – no concreting required.
4.     High performance, better quality components used.
5.     NITTO linear piston compressors mean almost silent operation and minimal electricity usage.
5.     Built in sampling chamber saving you £300.
6.     Odourless – complete aerobic digestion means no smelly settlement chamber.
7.     Unique debris screening action – wipes, sanitary towels etc prevented from causing serious problems.
8.     EN12566-3 & A1 2009 Certification (satisfies more stringent French requirements).
9.     Environment Agency approved to discharge to a ditch or watercourse (subject to permit).
10.   Treatment process can be increased or decreased depending on the population.

Here’s how it works:

The Vortex has a treatment system not encountered in any former sewage treatment plant in the UK. 

The ONLY electrical element is a small high quality NITTO motor compressor which uses very little electricity.

There are no pumps, motors or any active parts within the unit. 

Incoming sewage is filtered to avoid mixing non soluble waste such as sanitary towels, wipes etc. Filtered sewage is then aerated and a microbial 'soup' builds up that digests the pollutants and organic particles in the sewage.

These good microbes are continually topped up with the microbes that sink to the bottom of the final settlement tank, guaranteeing an invariant 'friendly bacteria' provision for the digestion procedure. There is no need to add extra bacteria, as is often required with other types of sewage treatment plant.

Processed sewage then enters the final settlement chamber where activated sludge bacteria settle down at the bottom. These good microbes are always returned to the digestion chamber to enhance the performance of the treatment system. 

The bacterial incrustation that forms on the top of the effluent in the clarification chamber is also constantly sent back through a pipe to the digestion chamber – this is an innovation unique to the Vortex, since other activated sludge plants require the removal of this crust, by hand, at regular intervals – a definite benefit we think you will agree!
