The Fusion
®
is simple in design, yet advanced in its wastewater
treatment ability. The design has been rened over many years
of intense research and development in an effort to perfect this
superior treatment system. Fusion
®
systems are 90% - 95%
efcient at treating wastewater. This is nearly twice as effective
as a traditional septic tank, which is approximately 50% efcient.
This high degree of treatment helps to protect both your personal
property and the environment.
The Fusion
®
utilizes a combination of anaerobic (without oxygen)
and aerobic (with oxygen) biological processes to treat wastewater.
As wastewater enters the Fusion
®
, it is broken down and becomes
food for biological organisms benecial to bacteria operating
within the unit. The rst chamber serves to separate grease and
large solids from the liquid. In the second chamber, plastic media
with large surface areas are used to increase contact between
water and benecial bacteria to optimize treatment. A small linear
air blower is used to move air (oxygen) into the third chamber
for the aerobic process. The nal efuent leaving the system will
have been treated to secondary quality efuent and will average
*9 mg/L CBOD
5
and 9mg/L TSS.
* Based on NSF Standard 40 testing.
