What is A Treatment Plant?
Sewage treatment plants are used to manage wastewater from homes, businesses, and industrial sites. A sewage treatment plant service is essential for properties without access to the mains sewer, providing an efficient way to process and treat wastewater. Unlike a common misconception, treatment plants don’t purify water for reuse. Instead, they remove contaminants before safely discharging the treated water into the ground or, in some cases, directly into watercourses. Compared to a septic tank, a treatment plant produces cleaner discharge, making it a more environmentally friendly option. At Draintech, we specialize in sewage treatment plant installations for homeowners and businesses in Andover, Dorset, and beyond. Whether you need a domestic sewage treatment plant for your property or sewage treatment plant emptying and maintenance, our expert team ensures your system runs efficiently. What sets us apart?

How Does a Sewage Treatment Plant Work?
A sewage treatment plant works much like a septic tank, but with one key difference — it actively treats the wastewater rather than just separating solids from liquids. The process starts when wastewater enters the primary chamber, where solids settle at the bottom while lighter waste floats to the top. However, instead of simply allowing waste to settle, the system uses a pump to aerate the chamber, introducing oxygen to encourage the growth of beneficial bacteria. These ‘good’ bacteria help break down harmful waste, making the water much cleaner before it is discharged. Unlike septic tanks, which can only release water into a drainage field, a treatment plant installation allows for direct discharge into watercourses, ditches, or land drainage systems because the treated water is typically 95% clean. At Draintech, we are experts in installing both commercial and domestic sewage treatment plants, ensuring that wastewater is processed efficiently and environmentally responsibly. To keep everything running smoothly, sewage treatment plant servicing is essential—your system should be emptied at least once a year to remove the natural build-up of sludge.
Do I need permission to install a sewage treatment plant?
Before installing a sewage treatment plant in the UK, it’s important to understand the regulations and permissions required. All systems must comply with the General Binding Rules set by the Environment Agency. In some cases, you may need planning permission and/or building regulations approval, especially if your property is in a protected zone, such as a conservation area or near a watercourse. You’ll also need to determine the discharge volume and whether the treated wastewater will be released into the ground or a body of water. When you work with Draintech, you don’t need to worry about any of that — we take care of everything for you. With our sewage treatment plant installation service, you can rest assured of full compliance with General Binding Rules. We’ll guide you through any necessary regulatory process, so you don’t have to navigate it alone. Please don't hesitate to call 01264710543 if you'd like free advice from one of our expert engineers.

Does a sewage treatment plant need a soakaway?
A treatment plant does not always require a soakaway. However, this really depends on how and where the treated wastewater is discharged.
- If the treated effluent meets environmental standards, it can often be discharged directly into a watercourse (such as a river or stream) without the need for a soakaway.
- If discharging to the ground, a properly designed drainage field (soakaway) is required to allow the treated water to filter safely into the soil.
