Biwater - Model Bicom -Compact Wastewater Treatment Plant
Biwater Compact Wastewater Treatment Plant (Bicom) has been developed to provide an economical, simple and reliable method of treatment for wastewater. The sewage treatment is based on the activated sludge process using extended aeration and optional denitrification.
The design is standardised on a range of prefabricated factory built modules to enable rapid onsite installation.
There are seven standard model sizes catering for a population equivalent range of 5,000 to 80,000. Populations for larger communities are catered for with a combination of standard models.
Bicom is offered across two ranges, Carbonaceous or Nutrient removal models. The selection of the model required is based on the sewage characteristics and the required effluent standard with both capable of removing TSS. The Carbonaceous model is primarily designed to biologically reduce BOD and COD, while the Nutrient removal model is designed to also reduce Nitrogen and Phosphorous in the effluent.
