π± LAND-BASED SOLUTIONS π±
When it comes to wastewater discharge, NIEA guidance encourages considering discharge to ground where site conditions allow.
But going to ground doesn't simply mean installing a traditional soakaway.
There are a range of land-based solutions that can be considered depending on the site, ground conditions, available area and discharge requirements, including:
π§ Pumped percolation areas
π§ Drip dispersal systems
π§ Reed bed systems
π§ Gravity-fed percolation areas
And a range of other site-specific solutions
Every site is different, so the right solution depends on factors such as ground conditions, hydraulic loading, available land and the required level of treatment.
At Viltra, we can help assess the site and develop a wastewater treatment solution suited to the specific project requirements.
π± Think beyond the soakaway.
