Vermifiltration

Powered by nature and power-free

NaturalFlow and Biolytix products both harness the power of vermiculture to create wastewater treatment systems that are passive and rely on little or no electricity (Biolytix also uses gentle aeration which requires electricity).  
To do this they let nature do the dirty work. The worms chew through the electricity, silently and without producing any odour. 

How Vermifiltration Works

Vermifiltration uses a power-free self-sustaining ecosystem of worms and other organisms to break down and recycle black water that comes from the toilet and kitchen waste to convert the solids into water soluble nutrients.

Grey water (from showers, baths, laundry and sinks etc) is separated from black water before treatment begins and is treated through natural settling and filtering processes.

Once the liquid from the black water is treated through vermiculture and media filtration, it is recombined with the grey water and disposed into the soil.
