...more residential and commercial waste is coming into the treatment plants.

They have to treat more of their rate-payers’ sewage. That means they have to take less from outliers like septic tank waste haulers from the rural areas

we’ve heard about nationwide. “Waste treatment plant facilities still in operation today were built 30 to 50 years ago. They were designed for a certain maximum capacity of the waste stream. But, now the cities they were built to service have grown, outgrown the aging facilities.”

So, more residential and commercial waste is coming into the treatment plants. They have to treat more of their rate-payers’ sewage. That means they have to take less from outliers like septic tank waste haulers from the rural areas.

In Chris’s area, there once were no limits on the amounts septic services could take to the local plants, whereas now they may be limited to no more than one load per day. Septic tank pumping services, like Pro Septic, with land application licensing fare better than newer businesses without that option.

As Chris said, “Treatment plant operators explain that the cost to renovate a plant is astronomical.

Chris further noted that adding to this severe waste treatment capacity shortage, the DNR’s growing concerns about PFAS plastic contaminates and reducing phosphorus limits worsen the consequence for waste haulers, which is a higher cost for waste treatment at the plants and reduced amounts of waste that can be accepted by the plants from waste haulers.

SOLUTION IN PROCESS MODERNIZATION There is an emerging awareness of the new alternative to searching for elusive waste disposal locations in areas with dense populations and outdated sewage processing plants. That alternative represents a paradigm shift in septic tank pumping equipment and waste handling. It means switching to onsite filtration

of septic tank waste — an ultra-modern process that returns the water back into the septic tank filtered at 100 microns, which is on par with the water quality emitted onto the drainfield.

This exciting solution provides the needed relief for operators who are sometimes driving outrageous distances to dump wastewater loads. However, the upfront cost is high, about $70k more in purchase price than a new traditional model pumper truck. But, the cost savings in time regained for serving more customers per day and the fuel savings and dumping fees saved can all add up to a full financial recovery for many new owners of the state-of-the-art filtration truck within the first 12months or so of use.

COXREELS® UPGRADED MULTI-LOBE SEALS

Coxreels is proud to announce a seal upgrade to the nitrile 1.5” and 2” inline swivels with advanced multilobe sealing technology. The enhanced seals are designed to maximize seal integrity, improve overall seal performance, and maximize seal life. In-depth testing has shown that the performance of the multilobe seals exceeds that of the standard O-ring, cup, and T-seals for large capacity fluid handling and high volume delivery in both high and low pressure applications. Additionally, the new seal geometry has a better resistance to compression set, which is a leading cause of premature seal failure.

product line serving the industry in every channel and application, Coxreels® takes great pride in designing, building, and supporting all of their products right here

The enhanced seals are designed to maximize seal integrity, improve overall seal performance,

helps guide long-term maintenance and improves planning.

Creating a regular maintenance schedule is a great way to prevent emergencies from occurring. Systemwide inspections are essential and can be easily performed alongside season changes. Regular line flushing and visual inspections are a few things that can be done year-round to reduce the likelihood of back-ups.

FOLLOW THE SEASONS Each season poses its own challenges to sewer systems.

Summer debris, winter freezes, spring showers and autumnal leaf shed all leave work to be done to keep systems functioning their best. Catch basins are often clogged with trash, organic material and sediment buildup that can reduce flow capacity in pipes. When dealing with seasonal maintenance, don’t forget to look for root intrusion and structural damage that can easily go unnoticed during busy seasonal work.

As the cold winter months bring in the new year, focus on eliminating debris and sediment buildup, and inspect pipes before freezing conditions make work more difficult. After months of heavy rain and falling leaves, storm drains are often over capacity. Buildup like this restricts water movement and contributes to problems.
