WASTEWATER TREATMENT
School wastewater treatment
OVERVIEW
Tricel uses wastewater experience, knowledge, and custom-made resources to ensure compliance rates are exceeded.
As part of Tricel’s commitment to providing the finest wastewater treatment solutions, we ensure compliance with local environmental agency regulations. Whether you need a brand-new bespoke system or an upgrade for an existing plant, Tricel will find a solution that meets your requirements, needs, space and budget.
Our solutions are perfect for school wastewater treatment in rural and remote areas without a public sewer. For new extensions or school buildings, we can provide an upgrade to your outdated septic tank. This is particularly necessary as the hydraulic and organic loading will increase by accommodating the additional students and staff.
School Wastewater Treatment Solution
Tricel offers several wastewater treatment solutions that can be adapted to any type of project, such as the Tricel Maxus Wastewater treatment, designed to treat wastewater for small communities and commercial properties greater than 50 PE. With multiple configurations that fit any site, the Maxus is robust, easy to install, and simple to operate; it is easy to maintain over the product’s lifespan.
School sewage can be treated and disposed of using our Tricel Maxus commercial wastewater treatment systems. Due to their location in rural areas, schools often adhere to strict ammonia, phosphorus, nitrogen, and BOD limits for which the Tricel Maxus wastewater treatment plant can cater.
In contrast to domestic wastewater applications, creches and schools produce different types of sewage, and it is generally characterised by many toilet flushes and higher organic content. As a result, school and creche wastewater contain high levels of ammonia. The design of a treatment plant for a new school or creche building requires professional input at an early stage. The following unique conditions must be addressed in a school sewage system, which is different from most typical applications.
Some examples :
- Between late afternoon and early morning, there is no loading to the plant.
- In the summer, the facility is rarely used.
- There are regular short periods when there is no loading.
- Due to sensitive locations, effluent standards are high.
- As no specialist staff is onsite, the system is automatically operated and requires little maintenance.
- Site restrictions result in a small footprint.
- A rapid start-up at the beginning of the school year.
School or nursery septic systems can often pollute groundwater and surface water. The wastewater treatment Tricel Maxus guarantee full compliance with the EPA‘s licence conditions. No matter the size restrictions or limitations, we can provide multiple configurations that suit your needs.
School, creche, nursery or playschool wastewater treatment systems must consider several key factors, such as safety, plant warranty/guarantee, power consumption, site restrictions, and operational and maintenance costs. We are confident that we can offer the most economical and reliable wastewater treatment solution because of our extensive and relevant experience in the commercial sewage treatment sector, including projects for the education sector.
Tricel’s advantages for School Wastewater Treatment
Wastewater treatment is suitable for more than 50 Population Equivalent (PE) applications.
- Schools rely on our Tricel Maxus Commercial Plant for permanent and seasonal operations. The control panel will automatically adjust to the incoming load to ensure optimal performance. When no flow is detected, the system goes into power-saving mode and restarts as soon as the flow is detected.
- We provide bespoke wastewater treatment solutions regardless of the available space, above ground or below ground, or the effluent standard. If a breach of a discharge licence or permit causes a compliance issue with the environment agency, we can upgrade to ensure full compliance.
- With the latest developments in commercial wastewater treatment, Tricel provides low-cost, reliable school wastewater treatment using low energy. Low running costs result from simple operation using long-life, reliable components. Easy maintenance is made possible by the lack of moving parts within the plant.
