Reed Beds: Reed Bed Sewage Treatment Systems

  Nature’s way of helping the environment.
   
  What is a reed bed?
A reed bed is a natural filtration process used in conjunction with a BioDisc or AirFlow Treatment Plant to further enhance the quality of effluent migrating into surrounding watercourse.
A reed bed is only required when local water authorities request a better quality of effluent than that discharged from the standard unit.
