WASTEWATER TREATMENT
Commercial sewage treatment systems – The Tricel Maxus
OVERVIEW
In an era where sustainability is at the forefront of global consciousness, commercial sewage treatment systems play a pivotal role in addressing environmental concerns and ensuring responsible wastewater management. These systems are designed to treat and purify wastewater generated by commercial establishments, industrial facilities, and other non-residential entities. The implementation of advanced technologies and innovative solutions in commercial sewage treatment has become essential to meet stringent environmental regulations and promote a cleaner, healthier planet. Introducing the Tricel Maxus…

The Need for Commercial Sewage Treatment
Commercial activities often produce significant volumes of wastewater containing various pollutants, including chemicals, organic matter, and pathogens.
Discharging untreated or inadequately treated wastewater into water bodies can lead to environmental degradation, harm aquatic ecosystems, and pose a threat to public health.
Commercial sewage treatment systems aim to mitigate these risks by efficiently removing contaminants and producing treated effluent that meets regulatory standards.
How the Tricel Maxus works
The Tricel Maxus wastewater treatment system operates through a comprehensive four-stage process, leveraging the efficiency of SAF (Submerged Aerated Filter) technology to ensure effective purification.
1. Settlement Tank
The journey begins in the settlement tank, where wastewater undergoes primary treatment. Here, heavy solids settle at the tank’s base, forming sludge, while lighter solids, such as oil, fats, or grease, rise to the top and are retained. This initial stage sets the foundation for subsequent purification processes.
2. Buffer Tank
The partially treated wastewater then proceeds to the buffer tank. Serving as a critical component, the buffer tank smoothens out fluctuations in the incoming water load. Pumps at the tank’s bottom feed the wastewater into the treatment plant, ensuring a consistent flow for optimal performance.
3. Biological Treatment Zone
Within this zone, the submerged aerated filter, boasting a substantial surface area for microbes, undergoes intensive aeration as the wastewater passes through. Noteworthy is the self-sufficiency of this system – it remains unclogged and requires no maintenance or additional chemicals. The biological treatment effectively breaks down contaminants in the wastewater.
4.Clarifier
The clarified liquid, now largely free of impurities, enters the clarifier. Here, any remaining bio sludge from the treatment process settles, contributing to the purification of the liquid. Airlift pumps facilitate the recirculation of bio sludge from the base of the tank back to the settlement tank, creating a continuous loop. The fully treated liquid is now prepared for discharge from the Tricel Maxus plant.
In summary, the Tricel Maxus wastewater treatment system employs a systematic four-stage approach, utilising SAF technology to efficiently and reliably purify wastewater. From the initial settlement tank to the final clarifier, each stage plays a crucial role in ensuring the thorough treatment of wastewater, making the Tricel Maxus an effective and low-maintenance solution for various applications.
Benefits of Advanced Commercial Sewage Treatment Systems
- ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Properly treated wastewater minimises the environmental impact of commercial activities, preserving water quality and safeguarding ecosystems.
- COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS
Advanced treatment systems help businesses adhere to stringent environmental regulations, avoiding penalties and legal consequences.
- RESOURCE RECOVERY
Some treatment processes facilitate the recovery of valuable resources from wastewater, such as nutrients and energy, contributing to a more sustainable and circular economy.
- COST SAVINGS
While the initial investment in advanced treatment systems may be higher, the long-term operational efficiency and reduced environmental risks can lead to cost savings over time.
Commercial sewage treatment systems
Commercial sewage treatment systems are evolving to meet the growing demands for sustainable and efficient wastewater management. Innovations in technology, coupled with a heightened awareness of environmental responsibilities, are driving the development of systems that not only purify wastewater but also contribute to the broader goals of resource conservation and environmental protection. As businesses embrace these advancements, they not only fulfill regulatory requirements but also demonstrate a commitment to a cleaner and more sustainable future.

Key Components of Commercial Sewage Treatment Systems
PRIMARY TREATMENT
The process begins with the removal of large solids and debris through physical processes such as screening and sedimentation. Primary treatment helps reduce the overall organic load in the wastewater.
SECONDARY TREATMENT
Secondary treatment involves the use of biological processes to further break down organic matter. Common methods include activated sludge systems, trickling filters, and sequencing batch reactors. Microorganisms play a crucial role in digesting pollutants and transforming them into less harmful substances.
TERTIARY TREATMENT
Tertiary treatment is an additional step designed to enhance the quality of the effluent further. Technologies such as filtration, chemical precipitation, and advanced oxidation processes are employed to remove remaining contaminants, ensuring that the treated water meets stringent discharge standards.
