The Algal Turf Scrubber® technology offers an exciting new opportunity for advanced levels of treatment for domestic wastewaters. With the high cost of nonpoint source nutrient control, secondary or AWT treated wastewater can be polished with an Algal Turf Scrubber® unit, providing cost-effective nutrient load reduction.
For sprayfield and rapid infiltration basins where nutrients often contaminate groundwater and result in impairments to adjoining surface waters, pre-treatment with an Algal Turf Scrubber® system may offer a low-cost solution for nutrient load reduction.
