enviro-septic leaching system

Picture
Enviro-Septic® is a patented, multi-stage effluent treatment system for residential and commercial use. It is a product designed, tested, manufactured, and distributed by Presby Environmental, Inc., of Whitefield, New Hampshire.

HOW IT WORKS

1.  Warm effluent enters the pipe and is cooled to ground temperature.
2.  Suspended solids separate from the cooled liquid effluent.
3.  Skimmers further capture grease and suspended solids from the exiting effluent.
4.  Pipe ridges allow the effluent to flow uninterrupted around the circumference of the pipe and aid in cooling.
5.  A mat of random, coarse fibers separates more suspended solids from the effluent.
6.  Effluent passes into the geo-textile fabric and grows a protected bacterial surface.
7.  Sand wicks liquid from the geo-textile fabric and enables air to transfer to the bacterial surface.
8.  The fabric and fibers provide a large bacterial surface to break down solids.
9.  An ample air supply and fluctuating liquid levels increase bacterial efficiency.

PIPE COMPONENTS

  • A corrugated, perforated, high-density plastic pipe with a series of unique ridges on the peak of each corrugation and skimmers protruding into the pipe's interior.
  • A mat of randomly oriented, coarse plastic fibers surrounding the pipe.
  • A special, non-woven, geo-textile plastic fabric surrounding a mat of fibers and stitched in place.

Each unit of Enviro-Septic® pipe is 10 feet long, has an outside diameter of 12 inches, and is clearly marked with the product's name. Snap-lock couplings, offset adapters, and end caps are used for the system assembly. Readily available and easily worked gravelly coarse sand or an ASTM standard C-33 for concrete sand, is used to surround the pipe to a minimum distance of six inches.

THE CONFIGURATION ADVANTAGE

Enviro-Septic® is a versatile product that offers a great number of installation options. Enviro-Septic® can be used in many configurations and requires a smaller area than conventional leaching systems. A 10' length of Enviro-Septic® pipe can be bent to 90 degrees allowing a variety of unusual system shapes such as curved, trapezoidal, L, S, or U-shaped. Enviro-Septic®may also be installed on sloping sites.

THE UNIQUE TREATMENT ADVANTAGE

Conventional leaching systems disperse effluent over a soil surface, relying on the soil to develop some system of contaminant treatment. Contaminants not treated, freely enter the underlying soils. Enviro-Septic® is called a leaching system because that is a term most individuals understand. In truth, Enviro-Septic® is a concept outside the box of conventional thinking. Enviro-Septic® is a system that treats effluent contaminants before releasing leachate into the surrounding soils. Enviro-Septic® is a no-nonsense product that needs no pumps, no filters, no electricity, no additives, and no special maintenance.
