Operating Details The waste water entering the treatment plant passes first through the septic tank (decanter/digester) which performs the primary sedimentation and digests the sludge, where the anaerobic bacteria degrade the organic matter, breaking down the solids. The clear water passes through the biofilter by way of pipes that distribute the clear water onto the filtering material, where the aerobic bacteria keep purifying the water of the organic remains and leave it in optimum conditions for discharging.
