Recycling plants
The water treatment devices are based on natural filtration of plants and natural materials: laterites (iron-rich soil) and esparto grass, which are easily found in arid and semi-arid regions. The wastewater treatment system does not present any risk and takes up a very small space. It has the advantage of removing two to three times more nitrogen and almost five times more phosphorus compared to conventional phytopurification systems. This highly efficient natural solution is suitable for the treatment and recycling of wastewater from cafes, restaurants, isolated houses, residences, municipal buildings and dairy manufacturing plants and fish farms.
