Sewage Treatment Plant Installation
Complete Sewage Treatment Plant Installation Services
In many ways, a Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) is similar to a septic tank regarding the way it works. It does, however, have additional steps to break down the material. The breakdown process of the solid material means that it has a cleaner and more environmentally friendly outcome.
A sewage treatment plant collects the wastewater and sewage from different properties and is stored in a chamber. While in the chamber, the material is broken down. The heavy solids typically settle at the bottom of the chamber, while grease, oil and other lighter substances float to the top. The settled and floating components are removed, while the remaining liquid is discharged to secondary, purifying treatment.
For the Sewage Treatment Plant Installation process to take place, we will need to prepare the ground first. We will carry out an inspection and then excavate the land before installing the sewage treatment plant.
Many new home buyers in rural areas require a domestic sewage treatment plant as they are not connected to mains drainage. A domestic sewage treatment plant is a safe and reliable alternative option. Since domestic sewage treatment plants encourage bacteria to grow and break down sewage, it is seen as a non-polluting method, which helps the environment.

Sewage Treatment Plants Installed
Self-contained & Low Maintenance
Once installed, septic tanks operate autonomously without needing constant attention. They require periodic pumping (usually every 3-5 years depending on usage and size) to remove solids, but beyond that, their maintenance demands are minimal compared to more complex systems.
Cost-Effective for Rural Homes
For homes located in rural areas where connection to a centralised sewer system may be cost-prohibitive or unavailable, septic tanks provide a cost-effective solution for wastewater treatment and disposal.
Protects Public Health & Environment
Properly designed and maintained STPs help in reducing the release of pollutants into the environment. By treating the sewage, these plants reduce the risks of waterborne diseases, protect aquatic ecosystems, and ensure that groundwater and surface water sources remain uncontaminated.
