SCL Water supply many treatment options for Sewage.
Sewage Treatment usually involves a combination of different methods to separate out solids, deal with pathogenic (disease carrying) organisms, and remove nutrients.
In broad terms there are 3 types of domestic sewage systems ranging from a simple cesspit through to septic tanks and sewage treatment plants. If, however, you have access to mains sewage then this has to be your route forward.
To establish the appropriate type of system percolation tests and an environment agency consent to discharge will be required. SCL Water can provide you with these services and advise the most cost effective solution for your requirements.
Grundfos manufacture a lifting station designed to transport untreated effluent to a sewage treatment system above the level of the property.
AQUACHAMP is a sewage system that an be installed into an existing septic tank to improve the quality of the effluent discharge.

- Robust and powerful
- No build-up of unpleasant odours
- Minimal noise pollution
- Operational safety thanks to the latest technology
- Only two main assembly units, 1 pump and 1 air injector

- Retrospective upgrade of a septic tank to a sewage treatment system using the Aquachamp system.
The Aquachamp is ideally designed to upgrade a 2 chamber septic tank to a 3 chamber treatment plant, such that the treated liquid effluent can be discharged directly to ditch or stream, thus negating the need for a soakaway. Typically this solution can resolve the problem of a blocked soakaway by the simple introduction of the Aquachamp into a third installed chamber with piped effluent to a water course.
Basic Information
Activated Sludge Sewage Treatment system basic information.
- The SBR process is an activated sludge process.
- The container is a tank, which is subdivided in 3 chambers.
- The clarification process is based on aeration of the sludge-water mix. The aeration takes about 6 hours.
- The next step is a 2 hour break. During this time the water is totally still. This causes the sludge to settle at the bottom of the chamber.
- The resulting process leaves two water layers in the aeration chamber (3rd chamber). The lower layer consists of the activated sludge, the upper layer is the treated clear water.
- Finally the water is pumped and can flow into the receiving waters.
- Storage of the clear water for irrigation is also possible.
