Effluent (or waste) Treatment is necessary in laboratories or containment areas where waste water and effluent cannot be allowed into the drainage system without first being treated.
This waste can include the effluent created by:
- Tap water from sinks or wash basins
- Washroom facilities within the containment area
- Sanitary installations such as toilets
- Water from showers and other cleaning facilities in the containment area
- Any exhaust / water from sterilizers in use within the Category Three or Four area
An Astell Effluent and Waste Water Treatment Plant can collect and store all the above waste, then process for safe release into the drainage system. Effluent Treatment Plants are the up to date version of what were once known as ‘Kill Tanks’.
These plants generally come in two types, Continuous Sterilization and Batch Sterilization.
Each system has to be sized to ensure that the daily production of waste is catered for with capacities ranging from 100 to 5000 litres.
Each tank is fully contained and designed to ensure that all connections are above any fluid level eliminating dangerous and costly leaks.
All vapours and expelled air are filtered every cycle
Every tank is controlled via it’s own Full Colour Touch Screen Controller |
