Go Green Water Treatment - How it Works. The system is an advanced wastewater treatment system that includes a series of tanks which carry out secondary biological treatment ( fixed biofilm technology).

Go Green Water Treatment - How it Works

Step one - removal of solids in a settlement chamber (similar to a septic tank). Step two - the overflow moves to the fermentation chamber by gravitational flow, where it is exposed to naturally occurring microorganisms (bacteria) that feed on the biological waste. A plastic media to which the microorganisms tend to attach themselves enhances the biological reactions and spreads them throughout the chamber. Step three - The wastewater (effluent) then moves to another tank, where an aerator fan injects oxygen. Toilets - All Products.

The hot poop on alternative toilets, Tiny house edition

There has got to be a better solution. I have twenty-five years of experience with alternative toilets, but have never looked seriously at the bucket and sawdust toilet as a viable alternative.

Help spread the permaculture word...

You don't have to! This film shows you how to make a simple biogas digester and produce biogas from kitchen scraps, other food waste, even animal manure. You can then store the gas in simple inflatable bags and connect them up to your stove. You might think biogas is for 'developing' countries but it should be the free and easy to make and manage alternative to fossil fuels as well as wood.
