Advanced Treatment Units
Eljen B43 GSF
The B43 GSF (Geotextile Sand Filter) unit from Eljen, named from its modular dimensions of 4 feet by 3 feet by 7 inches, is an alternative onsite septic leachfield system. It uses a two-stage treatment process to improve effluent quality before dispersal. The primary treatment is where the open-air channels within the module support aerobic bacterial growth on the geotextile fabric interface and promote oxygen in the system. The secondary treatment zone is where effluent drips into the specified sand layer and supports unsaturated flow into the native soil. The specified sand layer protects the soil from compaction, which helps maintain cracks and crevices in the soil. It has the versatility of being used in trenches, beds or mounds with an enhanced nitrogen reduction. Biomat management is provided, which takes the burden of treatment and biomat development off the native soil. 800-444-1359; www.eljen.com
