The BMcompact WWTP is built on glass reinforced plastic (GRP) and is based on the SYCON®compact Biological Tower, filled with the NATANTIA® Biocube, both from Bluemater. It’s a complete system with containerized primary screening and sludge dewatering that remove pollutants from water, such as BOD₅, COD, ammonia, nitrites, phosphates and other pollutants. It has low power consumption and low maintenance. The effluent to be treated is pumped from a receiving tank or pumping well to the sieving and then flows gravely into the SYCON®compact biological tower. It may or may not have an anaerobic tank (depending on whether there is a septic tank or pre-equalization tank) and its ultra-compact dimensions allow transporting the entire system inside a single container.

The SYCON®compact Biological Tower has integrated a lamellar decanter, so no posterior sludge decanting is required. The sludge is pumped out to a dewatering system incorporated in the WWTP or outdoor storage tank.
