System Specification

The treatment system for Te Awa Lifecare was installed in two stages, the first stage was designed to treat a maximum daily volume of 18m3.  A couple of years later, as the village expanded, we also expanded our system for the additional flow requirements totaling a maximum daily volume of 44m3. A great example of how the AdvanTex® system can be staged to match the needs of each project.

Total system now installed:

  • Max Daily Volume: 44m³
  • 2 x Central Septic Tanks
  • 5 x Pumped Septic Tanks (STEP Tanks)
  • AdvanTex AX600 WWTP
  • 11,150sqm of dripline field

Retirement villages 

An increasing demand for convenient retirement living, with a wide range of social and recreational activities on site, has led to a boom in large residential developments for seniors. Many retirement villages resemble small towns, with a mix of free-standing and semi-detached units, serviced apartments and hospital-level care. 

Wastewater solutions for these complexes must reliably treat and dispose of wastewater not only from residents’ bathrooms and kitchens, but also from cafes, hair salons and hospital sluice rooms.  

AdvanTex® systems excel in these settings. AX-100 modules can be installed singly or in multi-unit arrays to provide secondary wastewater treatment for villages of any size and complexity. High-quality odourless treated effluent can be re-used for drip irrigation or, with tertiary treatment, plumbed back to dwellings for non-potable uses such as flushing toilets, washing cars and even laundry.  

Additionally, if the village expands in the future, more AX100 units can easily be added to allow for greater levels of flow
