Distributed wastewater systems are an effective choice for your growing community or municipality.
Excess nitrogen being put into the local waterways in our area of Lake County can pose nutrient pollution issues, and with state, county, and local government working to address issues, it can create challenges for your new development. Costs, logistics, and meeting engineering standards have long limited the available land for local development.
Until recently, methods for nitrogen control created significant delays in the planning, permitting, and engineering processes. With distributed wastewater systems and the use of DWTUs, affordable and higher performing options with built-in monitoring make available land that was previously unavailable for development. Developers, municipalities, and counties have far more options available to them as DWTUs offer a quicker integration and scale to thousands of individual units from just a few systems.
The distributed wastewater system set up reduces initial costs associated with building a traditional plant. By handling, tracking, and treating wastewater at, or near, the source as opposed to a central, large-scale facility, the requirements for a large collection network are reduced. Instead of multiple permits, DWTUs have one permit for the entire treatment installation required and reduced project timelines from months down to days. Such systems are ideal for small towns, rural landfills, or even single-family homes looking to avoid the costs and logistics of a centralized facility.
Distributed wastewater systems allow for modular designs, letting individual treatment setups be easily added to or detached from the larger network as local demands change over time. These flexible designs let you meet the needs of a changing population or fluctuating levels of incoming wastewater. Alongside SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) monitoring tools, operators have a real-time view into how their DWTU network is performing. By managing, tracking, and evaluating their DWTU network using software and hardware components, off-site and local equipment monitoring offer a glimpse into potential problems and overall efficiency.
At Distributed Wastewater, we offer to help local governments and commercial builders in the Lake County, Florida area expand opportunities for upcoming developments. Wherever your municipality, HOA board, or engineering division looks to find operational efficiency and reliable options for wastewater treatment as local populations grow, distributed wastewater treatment offers an alternative to explore.
