BIOLOGICAL RECYCLING SYSTEM FLOW CHART
The Sump Pump (1) draws water from the Sump Pit (2) and brings it to the Inlet (6) of the Biological Recycling System.
The Inlet Flow Control Valve (5) can be used to control the flow of water into the unit. The Biological Recycling Tank
(7) is made up of several sections that are separated by weirs. The wastewater enters the top of the First Chamber (6)
and moves down through the Biological Media (9). The media packs provide a surface for the microbes to live on. As
water passes through the Biological Media (9), the microbes feed off of the organic compounds in the water, producing
by-products of carbon dioxide and water.
From the First Chamber (8), the wastewater moves under the weir, into the Second Chamber (10), rising up through
the Biological Media (9) and over the weir into the Product Tank (11). Water is then pulled from the Product Tank
(11) by the Transfer Pump (12) and moved into the Manifold (14) and the Pressure Tank (17). This tank holds water
at 30-50 PSI (2.8-4.1 BAR) until needed. When water is needed for washing, water is sent from the Manifold (14) to the
Water Outlets (16) and then to a pressure washer or garden hose. If the Product Tank (11) water level is low, water
is added through the Fresh Water Makeup (13) to the Product Tank (11). If the Biological Recycling Tank (7) water
level is too high, treated water is sent to the Rain Water Overflow (15) and disposed of.
Microbes also need air to live; an Aerator Pump (3) pumps water from the Product Tank (11) to a venturi Air Injector
(4) pulls air into the water. From there the air bubbles move up through the Biological Media (9). Without the air in the
Biological Recycling System, the microbes will not be able to live.
