Case Study 2 – Septic Aerator in 1,500 Gallon Septic Tank
Aero-Stream Remediator® septic aerator was installed in a 1,500 gallon 3-chamber septic tank at the NSF/ANSI certified Massachusetts Alternative Septic System Test Center ( MASST) in Barnstable County, MA.
Case Study 3 – Septic Aerator Performing Nitrogen Reduction
An Aero-Stream Remediator® septic aerator was installed in the tank. Data below represents effluent quality based on the patented nitrification/denitrification process. The data below represents a composite sample from a 1,000 gallon single compartment tank. This is the first tank that the wastewater enters when exiting the home.
Case Study 4 – Septic Aerator Reducing High Strength Waste
Introduction: The Merton Custard Shoppe’s septic systems were designed and installed to treat the wastewater from their new operation as a fast food custard manufacturing restaurant. Within 1 year of operation the system was tested for BOD, TSS and FOG to confirm the system was functioning as designed.
Case Study 6 – Septic Aerator Restoring a Failed Septic System
Introduction: Conventional In-ground septic system that was in total failure in June 2003.This was one of the pilot system used to develop the Aero-Stream® product. Aero-Stream Remediator® septic aerator was installed. Single tank system, composite samples are from the tank containing aeration equipment; household has 5 occupants.
Case Study 7 – Septic Aerator Restoring Commercial System
Introduction: Several Aero-Stream Remediator® septic aerator were installed in the tank. Commercial facility with 14 seepage pits and 1 conventional field septic system that was near total failure in July 2009. All of the pits were 80% saturated and the field was 100% saturated.
Case Study 8 – Septic Aerator Mitigates Condemnation
Introduction: Aero-Stream Remediator® septic aerator was installed in the tank. This is a 40 year old, 4 bedroom home with 3 occupants. The tank is 890 gallons. The 12 month average flow rate is 174 GPD with a monthly low average of 150 GPD and monthly high average of 209 GPD.
Case Study 9 – TKN Nitrogen Reduction – NSF 40 Testing Protocol, Single Chamber 1,000 Gallon Septic Tank, 450 GPD
Aero-Stream Remediator® was installed in a 1,000 gallon single chamber septic tank at the NSF/ANSI certified Massachusetts Alternative Septic System Test Center (MASST) in Barnstable County, MA.
Sewage Design Flow Rates & Regulations
Model source: New York State Septic Regulation Appendix 75-A.3 - Sewage flows - Effective Date: 12/01/90 or later and cited in detail at REFERENCES. The page top photo of campers at Camp Virginia (1950's) appears in our detailed discussion of OUTHOUSES & LATRINES.
Definition of daily design flow of wastewater
The daily design flow is the volume of wastewater that should be assumed when determining the volume of wastewater that the sewage system (septic system or soakbed or drainfield or other treatment system) must be capable of handling.

So what is controlled aeration?
Controlled aeration is a patented process developed by Aero-Stream, LLC.
What Makes a Septic Aerator Inferior?
Beware of any septic tank aerators that have not been tested by an independent facility. There are companies that sell systems with claims of superior oxygen transfer through the use of a synergistic airlift principle. This design is intended to be used in the aeration of ponds.
