Wastewater Treatment Systems: Our Guide to Approved Sewage Treatment Systems for Bunbury Homes
Efficient and eco-friendly wastewater treatment solutions are becoming increasingly popular throughout the Bunbury and South West WA region due to the number of rural and off-grid homes, but it is important to understand what is required for approved sewage treatment systems (STS) when making the switch for your property. For homes not connected to the deep sewerage system, a new era of wastewater treatment systems offers advanced technology to treat household wastewater efficiently and recycle it for irrigation or safely return it to the environment.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about choosing the right wastewater treatment system for your home.
What is a wastewater treatment system?
A wastewater treatment system processes household wastewater, including water from sinks, showers, toilets, and kitchens. These systems are designed to treat and clean water before it’s reused outside the home, for example, on lawns or gardens.
FujiClean ACE1200 is at the top of the list of safe, efficient wastewater treatment systems available in the South West of WA, using advanced Japanese engineering to remove contaminants and recycle water efficiently. This eco-friendly approach makes the FujiClean ideal for homes in Bunbury and surrounding areas without access to a deep sewage system and is an approved STS.
How FujiClean wastewater treatment systems work
FujiClean offers one of the most advanced wastewater treatment systems available. Their ACE1200 model uses a multi-stage process to treat household wastewater through both anaerobic and aerobic digestion. Here’s how the treatment works:
- Anaerobic digestion: Wastewater enters the system and is processed in a chamber without oxygen, where microbes break down organic matter.
- Aerobic digestion: Oxygen is introduced in the next chamber to purify the water further.
- Effluent recirculation: Treated water is recirculated for additional filtration, ensuring high-quality effluent that meets strict environmental standards.
By the time the water is treated, it is clean enough to be reused for garden and lawn irrigation, reducing water usage and waste in your household.
Why choose an approved STS in Bunbury?
When choosing a wastewater treatment system, it’s important to ensure it’s an approved STS, as approved systems must meet strict environmental and safety standards for Bunbury.
