WASTEWATER TREATMENT
Puraflo Maintenance
OVERVIEW
Tricel Puraflo modules are used after a septic tank as a secondary treatment plant.
From June 2022, a new generation of Puraflo modules are available, using coconut fibre as media instead of peat and provides a very high treatment efficiency.
Puraflo modules are ideal for use in areas of outstanding natural beauty where effluent quality is paramount, as well as for holiday homes, campsites and schools with intermittent usage. Initially supplied by Bord Na Mona (ANUA), the Puraflo system is supplied now by Tricel. Discover more information about Tricel Puraflo.
