Modulus is a high performance 3 stage modular sewage treatment lant which offers exceptional versatility, it has several significant features and benefits over integrated single vessel plants.
Manufactured from high performance polyethylene which offers strength and durability against many other GRP plants. Modulus plants are all fitted with our unique BIOSAC media which can be removed easily. The Bio media is proven to high performance discharges as standard. The plants have sludge return and micron screening fitted as standard and because the Modulus is 3 separate detached chambers it can be installed in a number of configuration to suit the footprint.
The range includes our M1 plant featured in the illustration Fig.1 below. This is an extremely shallow invert plant which is only one metre deep and with an invert of 250 millimetres it is ideal for areas of hard rock and difficult installations. As long as the plant is installed with the base above the highest water table it is the ideal choice to install where a shallow excavation is required.
The modulus system has been designed to cater for sewage loading of up to 50 people and they are designed to treat effluent to a standard of 20:30:20. |

Stage 1
Waste water enters the primary settlement chamber. Heavier solids drop to the base where they are separated from the liquid. Anaerobic breakdown now begins to occur and this basic natural settlement process improves the water quality by up to 30% producing a secondary effluent. Any suspended solids (sanitary towels, tissue etc) are filtered out by the micron filter on the outlet from this chamber.
Stage 2
The filtered secondary effluent then enters the second stage of the treatment process which is the key aeration stage of the effluent. In this stage masses of naturally occurring bacteria inhabit specially designed filter media beds called BIO SAC's which can be removed and or replaced. The bacteria are sustained and proliferated with air. Which is continuously supplied by an above ground compressor to a high quality diffuser in the base of the chamber. As the effluent flows through the filter media the bacteria feed on the impurities within the effluent mainly nitrogen and ammonias consuming and removing them. As a bi product of this process small quantities of bacteria known as 'sludge' are produced, this sludge gathers at the bottom of the module where it is continuously pumped back to chamber 1, this process enhances the performance.
Stage 3
The treated effluent/liquid now passes through a second micron filter for final polishing of the liquid from the aeration stage and enters the third and final settlement polishing chamber. The remaining treated liquid now passes through the outlet pipe and into an inspection sample chamber which is used to monitor the discharge downstream from there treated water will safely pass into the watercourse or soak away. |
