Introduction: Tricel Puraflo
Tricel Puraflo is a modular wastewater treatment system which can cater for large or small populations. It is
a flexible system which can treat effluent from one-off domestic houses, small communities and light
commercial applications through the implementation of additional Puraflo modules.
The Tricel Puraflo system uses peat fibre to break down the effluent making this type of treatment system
popular, using little to no energy. The Tricel Puraflo system works in conjunction with your septic tank or
wastewater treatment plant. The wastewater is distributed evenly over the top of the peat filter, using a
specially designed pipe network, to ensure optimum performance. Through a combination of biological,
chemical and physical processes the peat treats the wastewater as it filters through. The Tricel Puraflo is
designed such that maintenance requirements are minimised while at the same time effectively treating
effluent.
The Tricel Puraflo can be implemented as secondary or tertiary treatment as part of a complete
wastewater treatment system.
