Dependable,
Affordable…FAST®
MicroFAST® wastewater treatment systems are ideally suited for
use in single family dwellings, clustered residential developments
and small communities. MicroFAST modules can also be used to upgrade
struggling municipal package plants, providing small communities
with innovative, affordable options versus centralized wastewater
systems. Proven, Safe, Reliable.
The Real Beauty of this Remarkable System
is How Well it Works.
FAST® is simply great technology, based on environmentally sound
and simple scientific principles. The FAST (Fixed Activated Sludge
Treatment) process employs a unique hybrid combination of attached
and suspended growth in an aerobic, packed bed bioreactor. This
proven IFAS (Integrated Fixed-Film Activated Sludge) combination
includes the stability of fully-submerged, fixed-film media and
the effectiveness of activated sludge treatment, making the innovative,
patented FAST system technologically advanced and extraordinarily
reliable.
Nitrogen Reduction
Nitrification
and denitrification projects are much easier with FAST technology.
Multiple biological, bio-chemical, chemical and physical processes
occur simultaneously within the FAST wastewater treatment system.
MicroFAST wastewater treatment systems have proven themselves to
consistently reduce nitrogen levels – including nitrates and
all other nitrogen species - atv exceptionally high percentage rates.
How
Does It Work?
1. MicroFAST® wastewater treatment
systems process all the wastewater from single family homes, clusters
of homes, small communities or a portion of wastewater to aid struggling
municipal package plants.
2. Natural separation and settling
processes occur prior to entering the MicroFAST treatment module.
3. A remote-mounted, above-ground
blower, the system’s only moving part, introduces air (oxygen) into
the treatment module to facilitate a robust circulation of wastewater
through the media’s channeled flow path.
4. FAST’s fixed film media
provides a high surface-to-volume ratio to maintain exceptional microbial
growth during low, average and peak usage. Bacteria become "fixed"
or attached to the stationary media where the abundant, diverse and self-regulating
population of microbes is consistently maintained in the aeration zone
to metabolize the incoming waste.
5. Clear, odorless, treated water
is ready for standard or innovative dispersal.
