Purification of laundry water by Phytoair

Laundry Tony is located in a residential area close to the Dutch border. They discharged a volume of 50 m³ of waste water from the laundry and 500 liters of sanitary waste water from staff into the sewer system every day. By installing its own treatment plant, Wasserij Tony can make substantial savings on the discharge tax. There was one Phytoair built of 405m², with attention to the difficult-to-process fraction of fluff. After all, the fluff can clog the reed bed, but this is not a problem due to the aeration and an adapted design. The first sampling shows good results.
