Problem Solving

The following are actual photographs of effluent being discharged from sewage treatment systems!

Is the effluent from your sewage treatment works like this ?

or is the effluent from your septic tank / sewage treatment unit like this ?

If so then you should be very worried, and you should take action before any authorities see this!

We are regularly asked to visit sewage treatment systems and septic tanks, that have effluent discharges into our environment like the ones shown in these photographs.

Sometimes these effluent discharges are from older types of systems that have fallen into disrepair, but increasingly they are from modern sewage treatment systems that are only a few years old !

In fact there are some sewage treatment plants by well known manufacturers that consistently fail to meet any sort of effluent requirement, which frequently are primarily due to inadequacies in their design.

If you want to avoid this happening to you please contact us ñ soon ! ñ it can avoid you making expensive mistakes as costs build up especially with court fines frequently being £3000 plus.

We always carefully examine all aspects of a discharge, including the actual discharge consent as well as the sewage treatment system loadings, and then the reasons for the system to reach its final effluent consent requirements.

We visit clients sites with sewage treatment systems and septic tanks, in all parts of the UK, and now much more frequently at sites in various parts of Europe.
