Hotel Wastewater Treatment

Commercial wastewater for hotels can be treated by our Tricel Maxus wastewater treatment.

In dense urban areas and secluded country destinations, accommodation is becoming readily available in various types, shapes, and sizes to suit every traveller’s preferences and needs. No matter where they travel or what they like to do, 21st-century travellers can find the right hotel, and hotel managers have to work hard to create an offer that competes with the competition.

A functional and effective wastewater treatment system is essential to achieve this, not only for guests’ satisfaction but also to preserve the ecosystem and comply with laws and regulations.

REPAIRING OR UPGRADING AN EXISTING SYSTEM ?

Water quality is imperative for your customers and the wastewater treatment system for the ecosystem. If your current system like a septic tank is giving you trouble, it’s time to fix it. 

The first thing you should do is ensure that the natural water sources around your hotel property are safe. There should be no concern about wastewater contamination in a well-maintained septic system. In the absence of clean water, public health and safety are put at risk. You must fix your septic tank immediately to avoid legal repercussions and fees. Long-term solutions involve investing in modern wastewater treatment systems instead of repairing old ones

Whether upgrading or constructing a new wastewater treatment system, Tricel Maxus is your solution.

HOTEL WASTEWATER TREATMENT REQUIREMENTS

Tricel provides hotel wastewater treatment plants explicitly designed to meet the needs of the industry.

A hotel’s wastewater treatment system should accommodate highly variable wastewater flows and loadings during events such as conferences and weddings. The demand fluctuates considerably from season to season. Overloading at peak times will increase BOD, Ammonia and suspended solids, which can cause compliance issues. We manage this in our wastewater treatment plants by controlling and equalizing the peak flows.

Due to on-site catering, hotel wastewater is affected by elevated levels of fats, oils, and grease (FOG). High FOG levels can also fail to meet the ammonia limit values in the final effluent to increase COD. Therefore, any design of a treatment plant must include kitchen wastewater. Additionally, an add-on solution is needed to remove fats, oils, grease, ammonia, and COD from hotel wastewater.

The Tricel wastewater treatment plant is a submerged aeration plant. This plant uses a simple proven technology which treats the wastewater with natural micro organisms sustained in the plant with air giving superior treatment results. Learn more about Wastewater Treatment System Do’s and Dont’s.

Hotel Wastewater Treatment Solution

Tricel offers several wastewater treatment solutions that can be adapted to any type of project, such as the Tricel Maxus Wastewater treatment, designed to treat wastewater from small communities and commercial properties greater than 50 PE. Multiple configurations that fit any site are robust, easy to install, and simple to operate; they are easy to maintain over the product’s lifespan. Hotel sewage can be treated and disposed of using our Tricel Maxus commercial wastewater treatment systems.

You must consider many factors to choose the best wastewater treatment system for your hotel. Hotel size, number of wastewater generating units, daily wastewater volumes, and peak and off-season volumes must be considered. You must install an efficient system to conserve resources and protect the environment. 

The wastewater treatment Tricel Maxus guarantee full compliance with the EPA‘s licence conditions. No matter the size restrictions or limitations, we can provide multiple configurations that suit your needs. Highly efficient sewage treatment plants substantially reduce hotel and guest house operational and maintenance costs.

Tricel’s advantages for Hotel Wastewater Treatment

Wastewater treatment is suitable for more than 50 Population Equivalent (PE) applications.

  • Hotels rely on our Tricel Maxus Commercial Plant for permanent and seasonal operations. The control panel will automatically adjust to the incoming load to ensure optimal performance. When no flow is detected, the system goes into power-saving mode and restarts as soon as the flow is detected.
  • We provide bespoke wastewater treatment solutions regardless of the available space, above ground or below ground, or the effluent standard. If a breach of a discharge licence or permit causes a compliance issue with the environment agency, we can upgrade to ensure full compliance.
  • With the latest developments in commercial wastewater treatment, Tricel provides low-cost, reliable hotel wastewater treatment using low energy. Low running costs result from simple operation using long-life, reliable components. Easy maintenance is made possible by the lack of moving parts within the plant.

FAQ – Tricel Maxus Wastewater Treatment Plant

Can the Tricel Maxus adapt to different loadings or effluent strengths?

Yes, we have a solution for everything. We can work with BOD load high or low and find suitable options for your site.

The versatile technology can be adapted to different loadings or effluent strengths. With its flexible design, we can easily add more treatment zones and clarifiers to ensure the effluent meets site requirements (such as low BOD, nitrogen, phosphorus, or even E-coli).

Does Tricel offer design/bespoke solutions?

Yes. We work with you to offer a bespoke solution for your unique site to ensure the best performance.

Contact us to discuss your project and requirements.

Some of the questions we’ll cover with you:

  • Where are you discharging? You might also need extra such as Sandcel sand polishing filter or Tricel Puraflo.
  • What is your effluent quality requirement?
  • Sizing the plant
  • What is in the effluent (standard or unusual -> lots of washing machines for example)?
  • Futureproofing

What is the Maxus running efficiency?

The Maxus is suitable for both seasonal or constant load. The control panel automatically adjusts as incoming loads increase to ensure optimal performance. By working with the flow, the pumps on the tank reduce energy costs during off-peak seasons.

Ideal for:

  • Schools (opened 5 days/week and closed during holidays)
  • Hotels (busy during summers, closed during winters)
  • Housing estates (where the theoretical PE calculation might be higher than the actual load)

Does the Tricel Maxus allow for population extension / futureproofing?

Yes. Let’s take an example of a hotel with a requirement of 100 PE and futureproofing for 200 PE in a few years’ time.

In this case, we would do the following:

  • Settlement tank (1) and buffer tank (2) for 200 PE
  • Biological treatment zone (3) and clarifier (4) for 100 PE. The extra cost would be only for an additional 3+4 when required.

How does the Tricel Maxus work

 

What is PE ?

PE represents the initials of Population Equivalent. Population equivalent: conversion value which aims at expressing non-domestic applications in terms of domestic loading based on 1 person creates 60 g/day BOD5 and 150l/day. (Code of Practice: Wastewater Treatment and Disposal Systems Serving Single Houses (p.e. < 10), EPA)
