1 OPERATING PRINCIPES
The BIONEST
®
system uses a technology which replicates an accelerated
natural purification process normally occurring in the ground. This biological
process takes place in a restricted and controlled environment removing
organic and microbial pollutants harmful to your health and the environment.
The BIONEST
®
technology works according to the treatment principle of
aerobic biological culture fixed on a self-supported synthetic support called
“BIONEST
®
media”.
Primary treatment collects wastewater and clarifies it by naturally separating
solids and fat by settling and flotation. The water then flows to the BIONEST
®
reactor, filled with media. The reactor is aerated by an air pump and a diffuser.
Finally, the treated water is discharged in accordance with the current
regulations.
