Why BioLoo Works

01

Integrated Biological Sewage Treatment for Efficient Water Management

Our toilet system is designed to collect black and grey water from the flush toilets and hand wash basins in an integrated collection tank. From here the influent is pumped into an integrated biological sewage treatment plant known as a moving bed bio reactor (MBBR).

02

Chemical-Free System for Safe and Low-Cost Operation

The treated liquor is then passed through an advanced clarification process that further filters out impurities, ensuring the highest level of water quality. Finally, we use ozone to sterilise the water thus ensuring removal of any residual e-coli and other harmful pathogens. We therefore have a chemical free system ensuring a highly efficient system with low running and maintenance costs.

03

Sustainable Sludge Reprocessing for Environmental Benefits

Our closed-loop system reprocesses the sludge from the aerobic zone back to the anaerobic zone, thus eliminating the need for sludge handling. This ensures a sustainable and environmentally friendly solution.

04

Durable Stainless Steel Toilets and Urinals for High-Traffic Areas

The stainless steel toilets and urinals makes this system durable and long-lasting, suitable for high traffic areas such as mining applications, both above and below ground, building sites, rural schools amongst others.

FAQs

  • What is a BioLoo integrated toilet system?

    An integrated sanitation solution that collects and treats sewage and urine below ground using advanced wastewater treatment technology, ideal for remote locations like mining communities, rural schools and clinics.

  • How does a BioLoo toilet system work?

    The system collects black and grey water, flushing toilets into an anaerobic zone for nutrient reduction. Effluent is then pumped to a bioreactor for aerobic treatment via a moving bed bio reactor (MBBR), filtered through a membrane, and sterilised using ozone.

  • What are the benefits of a BioLoo toilet system?

    Benefits include water conservation, wastewater treatment, nutrient reduction, odour control, environmental protection, and long-term sustainability. The system is durable and requires minimal maintenance.

  • Can the treated water be reused?

    Yes, the treated water is safe for non-potable applications such as dust suppression, irrigation, and toilet flushing, reducing the need for fresh water.

  • What is the expected lifespan of a BioLoo system?

    Designed for longevity, BioLoo systems have an expected lifespan of up to 20 years with minimal maintenance.

  • How is BioLoo different from traditional sanitation systems?

    In contrast to conventional sanitation systems, which frequently present hygiene and environmental concerns, BioLoo utilises cutting-edge wastewater treatment technology to eliminate odours, promote responsible wastewater management, and offer a sustainable and environmentally sound alternative.
