pretreatment to a demonstration living machine
Posted: Wed May 03, 2006 5:28 am
Bob,
I am working on this nature center for a school in Michigan that wants to have a demonstration scale living machine in their greenhouse where we can divert(only ocationally) greywater from the surge tank(we are using composting toilets so there is only greywater) into the living machine.
I am looking at having a primary tank for the living machine be sealed (vented to the outside actually)and have a small bubbler in it to aerate the water before it travels into the open tanks in order to eliminate the odor that I would expect from the inherent tendency for the storage tank to go anaerobic.
Do you have any experience or suggestions concerning this.
Thanks again for the forum and your advice.
