What is a evapotranspiration septic system?

An evapotranspiration septic system utilizes natural processes of evaporation and plant transpiration for wastewater treatment. Effluent is released into a vegetated area, where plants absorb moisture, and evaporation aids in water disposal, offering an environmentally friendly alternative in specific soil and site conditions.

How Evapotranspiration Septic System Works?

The Evapotranspiration Septic System is a sustainable and efficient method of treating wastewater. It harnesses the power of plants and soil to naturally filter and purify the water. This ensures that only clean water is returned to the environment.


In this system, the wastewater from your home enters the septic tank, where solids settle to the bottom and are broken down by bacteria. The liquid effluent is the treated wastewater. Then, it flows into a system of pipes that lead to an evapotranspiration bed.

The EWS Septic Evapotranspiration Process

The evapotranspiration bed is a specially designed area filled with soil. It is planted with specific vegetation. The bed acts as a natural filter and treatment zone for the effluent. Here's how the process works:

Soil Filtration

As the effluent enters the evapotranspiration bed, it percolates through the soil. The soil acts as a filter, removing any remaining impurities and contaminants from the water.

Evaporation

As the plants take up water, they release moisture into the air through their leaves. This process, called evaporation, helps to remove excess water from the system.

Soil Treatment

The soil in the evapotranspiration bed also plays a vital role in treating the wastewater. It contains beneficial bacteria and microorganisms. They further break down any remaining organic matter and pathogens, ensuring that the water is purified.

Plant Uptake

The plants in the evapotranspiration bed play a crucial role in the treatment process. Their roots absorb the water, taking up nutrients and further filtering the effluent. This process is known as transpiration.
