    The SegfloTM Recirculating Biotower is a simple, reliable and proven process. It relies on the principle of bacterial segregation which, combined with efficient oxygenation, provides excellent performance results. The patented snowflake shape of the recycled PVC plastic media offers a large surface contact area designed to ensure the binding of a biological film. Sludge accumulated at the bottom of each tower is then periodically pumped back into the septic tank.

    Superior High Strength Wastewater Treatment


    The SegfloTM Recirculating Biotower is a simple, reliable and proven process. It relies on the principle of bacterial segregation which, combined with
    efficient oxygenation, provides excellent performance results, reducing BOD5, TSS and fats, oils and grease (FOG) to within or below regulatory standards.

    A combination of PVC plastic media and natural oxygenation


    (Recirculation)
    The patented snowflake shape of the recycled PVC plastic media offers a large surface contact area designed to ensure the binding of a biological film
    necessary for the treatment and evacuation of the excess biomass. The media design and tower configuration provide passive and natural oxygenation
    through water trickling and recirculating from one media to another on the entire height of the media. The recirculation ensures high oxygenation and
    efficient odor control.
    The design of the base section of the tower allows the sedimentation of biological solids having detached from the media. The sludge accumulated at
    the bottom of each tower is then periodically pumped back into the septic tank or to a sludge storage tank. The performance is also further optimized
    by the addition of a clarifier after the towers.

    1 Primary Treatment
    This usually consists of a septic tank providing
    a minimal hydraulic retention time (HRT) of
    24 to 36 hours depending on the application.
    For projects involving food processing, a grease
    trap must be installed upstream of the septic
    tank.

    2 Equalization Tank
    It must provide a HRT of 12 hours for commercial
    projects, based on the design flow. The basin is
    equipped with submersible pumps monitored by
    a control panel, providing optimum dosing of the
    wastewater to the treatment unit.

    SegfloTM Recirculating Biotower


    The SegfloTM treatment system is composed
    of one or more towers containing patented
    media. Several models are available depending

    Clarifier
    A clarifier is required after the SegfloTM for all
    types of projects. It captures any suspended
    matter that managed to escape from the
    recirculating biotowers to ensure constant
    effluent quality.
    4

    Polishing Unit
    An Ecoflo , Ecoflex or any other type of
    compact filter (foam, peat, coco, etc.), a sand
    filter or a conventional system can be integrated
    after the clarifier to obtain an effluent with very
    low BOD5 and TSS concentrations, if required.

    on daily flow and wastewater characteristics.


    A basin with two pumps installed directly
    under the media section not only allows the
    wastewater to recirculate through the plastic
    media, but also favors sludge draw-off toward
    the septic tank or sludge storage tank. This
    system can be installed outdoors (completely
    or partly underground) or, if needed, inside
    a temperature-controlled building. It is also
    possible to combine more than one biotour
    with a common recirculating and sedimentation
    basin. Please inquire with our Applied
    Engineering team for more details.

    Discharge
    The final disposal of the wastewater is done
    according to local regulations (infiltration, surface
    discharge, watercourse discharge or tertiary
    treatment unit with disinfection).
