The HiPAF® packaged sewage treatment plant is an ideal solution for rural and remote areas where mains drainage is unavailable.
Serving up to 2000PE population equivalent (PE) the HiPAF sewage treatment systems is adapted to meet your specific needs, backed by continued dedicated technical support:
Process guarantee for the lifetime of the plant
- Minimum of 25 years design life*
Energy saving timer as standard or can be retrofitted into an existing HiPAF®
Low operator maintenance
Manages variable flows and loads
- Ideal for seasonal venues such as hotels, caravan parks and cafés.
Compact & modular design options - to overcome site access and footprint restrictions
Scalable solutions to accommodate growing populations
*process guarantee is subject to correct installation, consistent influent conditions and regular plant maintenance as per the manufacturers’ instructions.
The HiPAF® range can typically attain: BOD 10mg/l: SS 10mg/l: Ammonia Nitrogen 2mg/l (with tertiary treatment), however higher igher NH 4-N and BOD 5 removal is achievable.
Phosphate removal is available with additional process technology design including chemical dosing
Animal waste - the HiPAF system combined with a sand filter and RADS is an ideal soulution for animal centres
No odours due to a separate primary tank
No internal mechanical or electrical moving parts within the tank
Easier tankering - primary sludge and humus are stored together
Emptying of the tank not required during routine maintenance
Midi and Modular - rectangular tank shape reduces dead zones
Compact HPC CE marked to BS EN 12566-3 - ideal for a Site of Special Scientifiic Interest (SSSI)
Midi and Modular designed to BS EN 12255-1/15 and manufactured using BS 4994 as a guide
British Water’s Code of Practice - Flows & Loads
UK Building Regulations
Environmental Agency guidelines
Below ground installation do not interrupt the landscape views
Above ground installation – custom designed options
GSM telemetry available for remote monitoring of the plant
Midi and Modular lids
Commercial applications - lockable large gas strut lids
Water utility applications - MK3 lids with protective grate
Glass reinforced plastic (GRP) is UV stabilised with an external gel coat finish
UK manufacture in a quality controlled environment
Compliant to BS EN 12566-3
The compact HiPAF® HPC uses no chemicals during the treatment process and is ideal for locations which need extra consideration such as a burn, nature reserve, fisheries, salmon river or close proximity to water extraction (well).
The HiPAF® is also specified by the highly regulated UK water utilities and meets stringent European environmental discharge consent standards.
Warranty 25 years on the tank and standard air blower (housed in the kiosk) 2 years subject to correct installation, consistent influent conditions and regular plant maintenance as per the manufacturers’ instructions.
Each HiPAF® treatment plant includes a three-stage process – primary settlement, biological treatment (WCSEE Hybird™ biozone) and final settlement.
The segmented biozone process chambers eliminate the risk of process short-cuts and mitigates risks associated with variable loads.
The HiPAF® package sewage treatment plant is most appropriate for commercial and domestic applications where the site is not connected to mains drainage and is well suited to complex requirements, such as the treatment of animal waste.
The WCSEE sand filter is designed to remove excess suspended solids (SS) and biological oxygen demand (BOD) from a packaged sewage treatment plant and meets stringent discharge consent standards above what is normally expected from a biological process or an industry standard clarifier.
The produced sludge can be aerobically digested using our Robust Aerobic Digestion System (RADS) - deemed less of a risk to dispose of.
RADS is a cost efficient, low maintenance sludge treatment system which runs alongside the biological plant.
The HiPAF® with sand filter and RADS as a complimentary solution have been successfully installed at many animal centres such as kennels, catteries and stables.
WCSEE enhanced 310m ²/m³ neutral buoyancy (NB) plastic filter media is specifically designed for use with our patented Hybrid™ biological wastewater treatment process technology.
The NB Media supports the maximum surface area for the growth of bacteria in the filter bed whilst enabling the flow of water.
Power consumption and footprint
Does not require a scour cycle
Up to 65% reduced power consumption with the use of blower timer(s)
Less media is required in the Hybrid-SAF reducing footprint
310m ²/m³ absolute active surface area
High loading rates
Greater contact time with the effluent due to rotational flow
High protected surface for Biochemical Oxygen Demand , Nitrification and Denitrification
Greater protection - very slow media movement
Reduces abrasion associated with collision
Significantly reduces dead spots
Greater protection for exposed surfaces due to offset fins
Designed to be installed for the life span of the plant
Hire
New build
Repurpose
Refurbishment
Media can be sold loose
