SEWAGE TREATMENT
Tricel Novo: The sewage system for domestic use
OVERVIEW
With a Tricel Novo wastewater treatment plant, you get a unique wastewater and sewage treatment system. The Tricel Novo system offers a simple, affordable solution for homeowners seeking high-quality wastewater treatment.
Introducing one of our best sellers… the Tricel Novo.
This solution is our interpretation of what a wastewater treatment plant should be. It combines many technological features and is one of the most efficient on the market. It is made from a robust and reliable material (SMC) and includes a fixed bed technology on top of a three-stage purification process. Each stage of the treatment process takes place in its dedicated chamber within the plant, tailored to meet the customer’s needs. We manufacture plants for all projects ranging from 1PE to 50PE.
KEY BENEFITS OF A TRICEL NOVO PLANT:
- Compact: about five m² of floor space (for five or six population equivalents);
- Lightweight: (200 to 300 kg): easy and inexpensive installation (sewage treatment plant with concrete tank weighs more than two tons);
- Efficient: effective treatment, no risk of clogging;
- Adaptable: suitable for all types of terrain (difficult ground, the presence of groundwater);
- Reliable: long life (20 to 40 years, whereas the spreading of a traditional septic tank must be replaced every 10 to 20 years);
- Tested and certified: for structural strength, watertight integrity, durability and treatment efficiency, adhering to European Standard EN12566- 3 (like all sewage treatment solutions manufactured by Tricel)

How does a wastewater treatment system work?
How does a Tricel Novo work?
Tricel Novo
Stage 1: The primary settlement chamber.
The grease and mud will be separated from the water in this chamber. The fat will stay on the surface, and the dirt will go to the bottom of the tank.
Stage 2: The aeration chamber.
In this compartment, the aerobic bacteria will digest the pollution from the wastewater.
Stage 3: Final settlement chamber.
The mud residues are transferred to the primary chamber with an airlift system in this final chamber.
Stages of Treatment
- Wastewater enters the plant
- Primary settlement chamber
- Aeration chamber
- Final settlement chamber
- Treated effluent exits the plant

Frequently Asked Questions
A cesspool is a simple storage vessel with an inlet and no outlet. It’s a sealed storage vessel; all the water coming in stays within the tank. The advantage is it doesn’t need an outlet. The disadvantages are: there is no treatment, the tanks are huge, and it needs regular emptying. Everything which has gone in must be sucked out. Ideal for sites which have got very infrequent use (Sheppard huts, for example).
A septic tank has an inlet and an outlet; it’s a simple overflow system. See how a septic tank works here. The advantages of the septic tank are there is no mechanic and no electricity requirement for it to work. The disadvantages are you are discharging dirty water, and untreated sewage effluent, as a tiny breakdown has occurred in the tank. You can only release water to a drainage field for the water to go through the subsoil to treat the water.
A sewage or package treatment plant has an inlet and an outlet; the wastewater is treated inside the tank. Aeration is provided inside the tank for the aerobic bacteria to feed on the waste and remove it from the liquid. The advantages are the wastewater is treated and can be discharged to a watercourse.
Many package treatment plants are available on the market:
- Trickles filters
- Rotating Biological Contactors (RBC)
- Mobile media bio-reactors
- Activated Sludge systems
- Sequence Batch Reactor systems (SBR)
- Fixed Bed Systems (like the Tricel Novo)
UK sewage treatment plants must comply with EN 12566-3 2005 regulations.
You should also hire a professional to install your sewage treatment system. For any sewage treatment plants you intend to install, you should also check your local guidelines to determine if planning permission is required.
A sewage treatment plant is where domestic wastewater and sewage are treated. The sewage treatment plants break down organic matter through the primary settlement and aeration chambers. Sewage treatment plants require little maintenance and have low running costs, and sewage effluent is discharged into drainage fields or watercourses.
For example, the required standards are 20:30:20 for BOD, SS, and NH4.
Tricel® has achieved an 11:16:9 result during independent testing.
In order for the biomass to reach its optimum purification, it may take up to 16 weeks.
You may be able to discharge directly into a watercourse or to a percolation area depending on your region. Find out which option is best for you by contacting your local council.
The sewage treatment plant’s size depends on the effluent volume from your house. It is determined by the number of people using the system, which is calculated based on the number of bedrooms in your home. If you need further information, contact our team.
Occasionally, your sewage treatment plant will need to be emptied due to the accumulated sludge inside – usually once a year. The frequency of emptying your treatment plant depends on its size and usage. See our dedicated page about desludging septic tanks and wastewater treatment plants.
1) to prevent surface water from entering the tank and overloading the system as this can inhibit growth of the bacteria and could reduce the effluent quality.
2) to prevent water getting into blower housing which can harm the control panel and the air blower.
