A development of private houses for seventy five people on the private Overstone Park had been threatened with fines and possible prosecution by the Environment Agency (EA). The existing sewage treatment plant that had been originally installed was now failing to meet the acquired final effluent standard required by the EA. A number of companies were asked to put forward schemes to rectify the problems.
The successful proposal, put forward by Marsh Industries, utilises the existing plant but as a primary settlement chamber. A separate aeration tank with humus final settlement was added. A continuous activated sludge recycling system was also installed. The final settlement tank was fitted with a Polylok 525 Filter. A Uni:Gem 75PE sewage plant upgrade was installed (complete with high level alarms, kiosks and Bibus Secoh compressors) and the renovation work of the existing tank was completed.
Biomarble 310 was selected from the Warden Biomedia random filter media range to provide ultra-efficient and cost-effective aerobic treatment in the Uni:Gem sewage treatment plant. With purpose-designed features, the media in the Warden Biomedia filter range are an excellent alternative to traditional mineral-based media and are ideal for improved performance in new wastewater treatment plants.
“Marsh Industries works closely with Warden Biomedia and the two companies have a long established working relationship. Warden’s filter media have always met all of our expectations for efficiency and performance in our wastewater treatment package plants”.
