The challenge

Tricel solution
How we helped
The customer wanted to upgrade his septic tank and had a few requirements for the soil. The customer lives in a wet area, meaning the ground is full of water, so the treated water from the septic tank must be as clean as possible. This specificity was the first of the project. Secondly, the garden of the customer was located near a stream. The stream’s proximity means that the customer should install any wastewater treatment. The second specificity of this project was to look carefully to offer the best suitable solution for the customer and the ground.
Tricel provided the perfect solution for the customer: a combination of two solutions that treat the wastewater as required and allow a customer to get permission to replace his old septic tank.
Tricel supplied a pumped Tricel Novo 6 PE and a Sandcel polishing filter, making the project possible. Tricel Novo is a secondary treatment unit with high-quality wastewater treatment. Its purifying qualities are undeniable, and it follows environmental protection regulations. But, the nature of the ground and the stream obliged the owner to have a much higher filtration level. Here is the reason for the use of a Sandcel sand polishing filter.
Tricel provided a complete solution with complementary features that fit the customer’s enquiry and ground requirements.
J. Murphy Groundworks installed the secondary and tertiary wastewater treatment.
The final result
The Tricel Novo and the Tricel Sandcel a few weeks after the installation.
A few weeks later, a technician came on-site to check if the plant was working correctly. He answered the owner’s questions about the system and delivered any additional information the owner wanted.
