How it Works
The SeptiTech® STAAR™ Residential Trickling filter systems screen and remove non-degradable particles from raw sewage. The simple, automatic and reliable equalization and clarification process of the STAAR™ biological trickling filter technology also maintains low levels of Nitrate-N with all below-grade components that fit in readily available concrete, plastic or fiberglass tanks.
How it Installs
Trickling filter technology is employed in both small-scale package plants and full-scale wastewater treatment plants to treat domestic sewage that’s high in organic matter, BOD, COD and other pollutants. Modular designs benefit both the environment and communities are easily upgradeable to meet growing capacity loads, and location-specific demands to offer highly-efficient solutions in every design.
