The 2002 Building Regulations put the onus on builders to take the greatest care when specifying and installing private drainage systems.
The law states that, if possible, an off-mains drainage property must be connected to the main sewer by gravity or otherwise via a pumping system. If this cannot be done, the other options are septic tanks, sewage treatment plants and cesspools.
For more than thirty years, Titan Pollution Control has manufactured a comprehensive range of sewage solutions for off-mains developments, including sewage treatment plants and pumping stations.
SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANTS
Sewage treatment plants can remove up to 95% of the biological pollutants present in sewage. Since the effluent is of a very high quality, it may be discharged directly into a river, stream or ditch, with Environment Agency permission
Titan Pollution Control is well known for Biotec™; the only sewage treatment plant on the market without any moving electrical or mechanical parts within the tank.
Biotec™ is also one of only three sewage treatment plant models in the UK to have been awarded the British Board of Agrément certificate, which means its design and structure have passed rigorous tests. Titan Pollution Control’s septic tanks and sewage holding tanks also have this guarantee.
Furthermore, Biotec™ is one of the few products to conform to Building Regs Part H2 & BS6297 – the industry standard for septic tanks and sewage treatment plants in the UK.
TITAN AT THE FOREFRONT
Titan Pollution Control has always been at the forefront of developments in the industry. For example, it was the first company in the UK to introduce a managed flow system that enables sewage treatment plants to deal with peaks and flows in usage.
The company’s technical director, Mike Norton, sits on the British Water Industry’s Sewage Treatment Plant Manufacturers’ Focus Group and Titan Pollution Control has been instrumental in helping to formulate European standards.
In addition to manufacturing sewage treatment plants for six to 750 people, Titan Pollution Control makes a comprehensive range of pumping stations for six to 85 people. It also manufactures rainwater recycling equipment under the Envireau brand.
