9. System start-up
Turn on at least one of the showers, bathtubs or sinks connected to the system. Fill the bioreactor with
mains water up to one meter water level.
9.1 Water-tightness test
Attention:
The water tightness of all screw fixings in the membrane station is particularly important so
that none of the contaminated water is able to impact the treated water. Furthermore, any
raw water which accidently enters through poorly tightened screw fittings may cause clogging
of the fibres.
Procedure:
Before connecting the blower hose to the aeration pipe, it should be connected to the ¾" connection on
top of the backwash tank to pressurize the membrane station with air (0.2 bar). (The required adapter (3/4"
ID x 1” OD) can be found in your local hardware store).
The blower is then started in test mode. The membrane station is immersed in the tank water up to the
midlevel of the backwash tank. If no bubbles can be seen in the water then all connections between the
membrane and the backwash tank are water tight and the station can be used.
Note:
run the test for minimum 5 minutes! If bubbles are present, refer to Chapter 10: Troubleshooting
9.2 Start-up phase of the bioreactor
The microbiology builds up in the greywater tank within ca. 3 weeks as a result of continuous greywater
supply. Until that time, there may be variations in the biological cleaning performance.
The water can be injected with biology in order to produce satisfactory biological treatment from start
up.
The settings and directions for start-up are found and entered as per the descripton in section 9.3.
In the first 3 weeks of system operation the treated water should not be used and sent to the sewer. After
3 weeks of biological activity the daily treated water can be safely used.
