THE ECOROCK SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT
1.1
GENERAL POINTS
The ECOROCK SYSTEMS from BIOROCK are compact non-electric Sewage Treatment Plants. The
treatment relies on the revolutionary BIOROCK biological purification process. The ECOROCK sewage
treatment unit is exclusively designed for domestic waste water purification.
The BIOROCK plant consists of a Primary Tank and the ECOROCK Bioreactor. Both parts (Primary Tank
and Bioreactor) must be ventilated.
A small pump can be installed in an integrated pump shaft to lift the treated water and discharge to a
higher level if needed.
BIOROCK recommends the installation of an effluent sampling point at the outlet of the treatment
unit.
The ECOROCK treatment unit can be installed (retrofitted) after a non-BIOROCK Primary Tank,
provided that this tank is properly sized, equipped with an efficient effluent filter and properly
vented.
1.2
SIZING
The ECOROCK-700 to -900 units have a capacity of 4*, 5*, 6* and 8* P.E. (Person Equivalent).
The capacity of the individual ECOROCK unit can be increased if the required final effluent quality is
of a lower standard than the results, achieved during the EN-12566-3 Performance test

1.3 PRECAUTIONS
Please note that BIOROCK shall not be responsible for any installation design parameters and
groundworks at any case. We recommend to involve a civil engineer or a specialized design office
in the design of the system installation if necessary and to follow best practices of the industry.
Important precautions for the proper use of the BIOROCK system: Only domestic sewage should
enter the system; no rainwater is allowed.
To ensure the good working order of the BIOROCK system, the use of automatic toilet cleaners,
electric waste-disposal systems and pumps equipped with blades are not to be used.
If there is a professional kitchen on site, an efficient and properly sized grease trap should be
installed. The grease trap should be installed before the primary tank.
