BIODISK Corporation BIODISK Corporation is in business to provide cost effective and reliable wastewater treatment services to communities. BIODISK Corp. is an industrial leader specializing in the design, manufacture, installation and operation of wastewater treatment facilities utilizing rotating biological contactors (RBCs). The corporation has vast global experience with the successful installation of over two thousand treatment facilities at sites in Canada, USA, South America and the Far East. Mr. Tom G. Smith, the founder and CEO of BIODISK Corp. has more than 30 years experience with RBC process technology. He also founded CMS ROTORDISK Inc. in 1974, which led to the introduction and utilization of RBC technology worldwide. Our Services BIODISK Corp. will listen to your needs and will work in partnership with you during the complete process of facility design, construction, operation and after care servicing. • We will facilitate the entire process and will get the job done quickly and efficiently. We will handle all necessary details including drawings and design information required for the works approval by environmental authorities • The facility construction phase will be simplified by our proven tank design • We will be there to support you with our after care service which includes: o System Start-up o Process Evaluation o Spare Parts o Trouble Shooting if Required Process Our systems use a natural process for the treatment of wastewater utilizing RBCs. The process meets or exceeds effluent requirements as specified by regulatory agencies. The process has many inherent operational characteristics that make it ideally suited for the treatment of domestic wastewater. Our systems discharge to: • Sub-surface and surface absorption components • Surface waters • Intermittent streams • Storm water management facilities Self Regulating The treatment process easily accommodates flows ranging from 0 to 100 percent of design. The biomass on the RBC media is directly proportional to the organic material received. The process is self-regulating without supervision. Sized to Meet Your Needs Designed specifically for small flow applications of less than 1,000,000 gallons per day (gpd). The modular design allows today’s needs to be addressed today whereas tomorrow’s needs can be addressed tomorrow. Complete Treatment Facility RBC facilities have primary clarification, aeration, final clarification and easily accommodate auxiliary equipment such as filtration, disinfection, chemical addition and minimal biosolids management. The treatment process can be designed for secondary, tertiary and advanced wastewater treatment.

Our priority is to provide the highest level of customer service and satisfaction. New Horizon’s RBC with de-nitrification discharges to a reduced size subsurface absorption component. Nestled within the development, the plant’s architecture blends into the rural surroundings. No fencing is required. Both phases of the Pine Medows Retirement Community use RBCs that are housed underground in low profile structures that do not obstruct the view of Lake Belwood. Primary Clarifier Final ClarifierPolishing FilterDisinfectionChemical Addition F UVP Multi-Stage RBC with (1) Anoxic and (4) Aerobic ZonesRecycle 3 Town of Lakeshore The Town of Lakeshore’s wastewater treatment plant is located in Woodslee Memorial Park. The low profile building is located on the banks of the Belle River. The 50,000 gpd system is comprised of: a primary clarifier, four stage RBC, final clarifier, sand filter and ultraviolet disinfection. The plant discharges directly to the Belle River. No bypass facilities have been included in the design. During periods of excessive flows, caused by severe rains, the plant was able to process all flows. The stability of the biomass precludes washout (due to hydraulic surges) of beneficial microorganisms that perform the purification process. The project installation was managed by the Ontario Clean Water Agency and engineered by Totten Sims Hubicki Associates. The treatment plant is completely enclosed, noise and odour free. The RBC is powered by a five horsepower electric motor. It typically has low power consumption thereby reducing operating costs considerably. The filters are pump fed by small submersible pumps located in the final clarifier. St Thomas of Villanova The Essex County Catholic School Board chose the RBC process to service this 2,000-student secondary school. Boscariol and Associates engineered the treatment works. The 30,000 gpd treatment plant consists of a primary clarifier, four stage RBC, final clarifier, filter and ultraviolet disinfection. The plant discharges to a storm sewer at the side of the road. The RBC process is not adversely affected by lengthy school closures or variable daily loadings. Represented By: Publication Number - 251 4
