Corrosion resistantTechnical informationThe Balmoral CAP is a biological aeration type treatment plant designed to produce a moderate quality of final effluent in addition to overcoming several of the common problems associated with small packaged domestic sewage treatment units.Common problems which can occur with small packaged wastewater unis are:
Fixed film. types, which have a .media. matrix, can suffer from media blockage because of excessive bacteria growth.
Replacement/maintenance of the media material may be required at regular intervals
Mechanical/electrical components within the tanks are difficult to maintain and can be a safety risk
The liquor is not spread evenly over the available bacteria preventing an adequate oxygen supplyThe Balmoral CAP overcomes these problems because:
There is no fixed media within the CAP to become blocked up it operates on the activated sludge principal whereby the bacteria floats in suspension in the reactor vessel and forms an active soup of mixed liquor.
All functions within the tank are operated by air power generated by a small compressor contained in the neck of the tank, allowing maintenance to be carried out safely and easily
The bacteria receives a high quality air supply and is completely mixed and aerated by the high volume fine bubble diffuser.

The liquor from the main section is transferred to the central chamber where it is continuously aerated by the fine bubble diffuser which encourages bacteria to provide the second stage of treatment. The mid section of this treated effluent is then removed from the chamber through a calming pipe which allows a further brief settlement before discharge. The air compressor runs continuously. It is contained within the neck of the tank and is accessible for maintenance if required. Easy access is available to both chambers for desludging which is generally an annual operation. ~Product constructionBalmoral's continuous aeration plant, and all internal parts, are either rotationally moulded in polyethylene or stainless steel offering a high level of impact resistance and longterm durability. Lifting equipment will be needed onsite at the time of delivery. For further details download the installation instruction datasheet, or download the Balmoral Tanks wastewater treatment brochure.
