Problem
Emirates Wolgan Valley is a luxury resort on a 7,000-acre (2,800-ha) conservation reserve in the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area. Designed to minimize its environmental impact on the surrounding wilderness, the resort combines deluxe accommodations with a uniquely Australian bush experience that emphasizes sustainability.
Solution
After consulting with Innoflow Technologies, an Auckland-based Orenco distributor, the resort chose to install twelve AdvanTex AX100 units to treat wastewater flows that average 26,400 gpd (100 m3/day), with peaks to 34,300 gpd (130 m3/day). This low-maintenance system provides excellent treatment with minimal energy usage. Wastewater passes through primary and secondary treatment, followed by UV disinfection. The high-quality effluent is used to irrigate pastures and gardens.
