Water treatment is very much in the news right now.  Beit the who's to blame game with the Havelock North town water supply system, or our  lakes and rivers and not to forget the impact on the pasture and the increase in run-off rdue to the increase in dairy herd numbers over recent years.

It would be fair to say that in many cases modern technology has not been investigated as far as water and waste treatment out in the field  is concerned, out of sight and out of mind combined with the,  if its not broken it doesn't need fixing kind of attitude.  Probably not the most sensible approach.

Phil Read founder of Reaman Industries came through to MSCNewsWire with an interesting comment around the removal of waste material that he spotted in article  where apparently a helicopter is being used to transport the waste material away from remote locations in the South Island.  A rather expensive way of doing it Phil suggested when their is equipment available such as the Reaman  MBBR Treatment Systems that could very well be appropriate. These systems can be installed underground (see image below) or housed in a 20 or 40ft container.

Today, technologies are available that will provide a complete treatment process on-site without needing to remove any waste products.   Should you be looking at water and waste treatment solutions for your situation then a call to Phil would not go amiss.  You can reach him on 021 915 892 and by email on This email address is being protected from spambots.
