Concrete tank systems

Taylex Advanced Secondary Wastewater Treatment Systems are safe, environmentally sound, reliable and cost efficient. Our advanced secondary treatment of wastewater systems use natural processes to turn wastewater into clean, safe water which can be recycled on-site.

If your property is not connected to a council sewer, you need to treat your household wastewater on-site using a Home Sewage Treatment System.

Environmental benefits

Reduces the impact on local ecosystems by treating wastewater responsibly and promoting water recycling.

Cost savings

Decreases long-term sewage disposal costs by enabling you to manage your own wastewater on-site independence

Provides a reliable and self-sufficient wastewater management option, especially in areas without access to a municipal sewer system

Superior treatment quality

Produces water 65 times cleaner than septic tank effluent, significantly outperforming other treatment systems, and effectively treats all types of wastewater, including black and grey water.

Peace of mind with emergency storage

Taylex systems have the largest emergency storage buffers currently available on the market. In cases where surge loading events can’t be avoided (like parties or in the unlikely event there is a critical fault with your system) your family has up to 9.8 days of storage (assuming a 600L daily flow). That’s 1,963 toilet flushes or 13 hours of shower time!

STEP 01

PRIMARY CHAMBER

The first stop for your household wastewater is in the Primary Chamber. Here solids will naturally sink to the bottom and fats and oils will naturally float to the top, leaving a clearer Supernatant Zone in the middle. This zone will transfer to the next stage of treatment. 

STEP 02 

SECONDARY CHAMBER

Next is the Secondary Chamber. Further settling happens here. Again, water from the middle flows onto the next stage, there is also an additional Bio-Mass block in this chamber to assist with the separation of solids. In a traditional Septic System, this is where the journey would end and effluent would now be pumped onto your property and into our environment, relying on sand or soil to do the rest. With a Taylex Wastewater Treatment System, there are still four more steps to produce clean, clear, safe water for your yard.

STEP 03

AERATION CHAMBER

The Aeration Chamber is next up. This is where the magic happens. Your quiet, reliable, energy-efficient Nitto Blower send oxygen into the chamber in the form of tiny bubbles. These bubbles pass through a specially designed structure called Bio-Mass. Bio Mass is purposely designed to trap the air bubbles to feed naturally occurring aerobic bacteria. These microscopic Eco-Warriors are now hard at work, chomping through most of the remaining organic matter, polishing the water, and eliminating odour.

STEP 04

CLARIFICATION CHAMBER

Step four is in the Clarification Chamber. More settling occurs here. Once settled to the bottom, this potent mix of aerobic bacteria and fine particle solids are recirculated to the Primary Chamber to keep it healthy and working hard (not smelly). 

STEP 05

DISINFECTION CHAMBER

The final step in the treatment process is the Disinfection Chamber. The water gets a kiss goodbye from our chlorinator which removes any harmful bacteria, viruses and pathogens. Using less chlorine per litre than your average swimming pool, the system removes any harmful bacteria, viruses and pathogens.
