There are several types of private wastewater treatment systems available. Common options include septic systems, which use natural processes to treat and dispose of wastewater on-site. Aerobic treatment units (ATUs) enhance treatment using oxygen and aerobic bacteria.
Package treatment plants are compact systems that combine various treatment processes into a single unit. Constructed wetlands mimic natural wetlands, using plants and microorganisms for treatment. Recirculating sand filters use sand and gravel layers for filtration and treatment. Selecting an appropriate private wastewater treatment system depends on factors such as site conditions, regulations, and treatment requirements.
