Multi-Flo Technical Manual

The Multi-Flo Waste Treatment Systems, Inc. Model FTB-0.5 was tested under the provisions of ANSI/NSF Standard 40 for Individual Aerobic Wastewater Treatment Plants (1990), which was developed by the NSF Joint Committee on Wastewater Technology. The performance evaluation was conducted at the NSF Wastewater Technology Test Facility in Chelsea, Michigan, using wastewater diverted from the Chelsea municipal wastewater collection system. The evaluation consisted of six months of testing, during which a seven week stress test was conducted. The evaluation consisted of three weeks of dosing without sampling to allow for plant start-up, sixteen weeks of dosing at design flow, seven weeks of stress test and five weeks of dosing at design flow. Sampling started in the fall and continued through the winter and into spring, covering a full range of operating temperatures.
