2 How it works BIOROCK also provide systems for domestic wastewater treatment for communities ranging from 20 to150 persons. Groups of houses Houses or a number of apartments Small villages, rural communities Various locations Tourist sites: hotels, restaurants, camping sites Public-access buildings: offices, hospitals, schools, sports facilities When treating larger populations the installation consists of several units working in parallel. Primary tank Effluent distribution system (flow splitter) BIOROCK units in parallel Sampling pipe or pump shaft For installations from 30 PE Primary Tank Often larger than our standard tanks and can be made from HDPE, fiberglass or concrete Must be able to be ventilated and fitted with the BIOROCK Pre-filter Minimum volume: - < 30 PE: 500 liters/pe - > 30 PE: 400 liters/ PE BIOROCK units Units must be: The same model Installed in parallel Separately ventilated Equally fed with the same amount of effluent

Features of a multi-unit installation Variable load management BIOROCK multi-unit installations can tolerate variations in loads far better than large single unit systems.

3 Features of a multi-unit installation Variable load management BIOROCK multi-unit installations can tolerate variations in loads far better than large single unit systems. This is due to an even distribution of effluent between the units allowing more time for efficient treatment. Standard installations In simple terms when a single house is occupied by a family everyone tends to get up at the same time, come home at the same time, and go to bed at the same time (most of the time). The peaks in loading are generally high. Pollution Multi-unit systems Each person or family live in a different property. The families activities and daily life often differ and facilities are used at different times. The peaks in loadings are generally spread out and are not so severe. Pollution 7h 12h 19h Time 7h 12h 19h Time Conventional installation Multiple units Sizing multiple unit installations Multiple unit systems are sized slightly differently from standard systems. The chart below shows examples of typical multi-unit installations and the units used.

6 The splitter box The splitter box is the second stage of the water distribution system. It should be installed directly after the flow control chamber and efficiently splits the effluent between the units downstream. Several splitter boxes can be used on the same installation : For 3 units installed parallel More than 3 units installed parallel One inlet 3 outlets Top view Splitter boxes on a 90 person installation (6x BIOROCK 15pe units in parallel)
