In the world of domestic wastewater treatment, FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) septic tank technology has become a leading solution due to its durability, strength, and efficiency. However, these advantages do not only come from the main material, but also from supporting components that are specially designed to ensure the system works optimally.
Here are the important parts of the O-Max FRP Septic Tank and their functions:
- Sealing Tape
Function: Used to seal the connection between the top and bottom parts of the tank, as well as other parts that have the potential for air or liquid leakage.
Benefit: Ensures the system is tightly closed, prevents unpleasant odors from escaping, and keeps wastewater from leaking and polluting the environment. -
Sealing Ring
Function: Acts as an additional protector on pipe connections or other accessories attached to the tank body.
Benefit: Increases resistance to pressure and water movement inside the tank, keeping the system sealed and safe. -
Nut & Screws
Function: Main fasteners to unite all parts of the tank including the lid, cover, and internal partitions.
Benefit: Provides a strong structure, easy to disassemble during maintenance, and supports the modular design of this tank. -
Elbow Pipe
Function: An elbow-shaped connector pipe used to channel waste from one chamber to the next.
Benefit: Directs the flow of wastewater, ensures the sedimentation process occurs gradually and does not remix. -
Cover
Function: Main cover of the top part of the tank that can be opened during maintenance or inspection.
Benefit: Protects the tank contents from external exposure and facilitates access without dismantling the entire tank. -
Partition Panel
Function: Internal divider that separates the tank into several chambers (usually three), namely: initial sedimentation, biological decomposition, and final purification.
Benefit: Enables a gradual and efficient waste treatment process, prevents direct flow from inlet to outlet, and reduces the risk of contamination. -
Honeycomb
Function: Grid structure placed in the chamber to slow down the flow and increase surface area for solid particles to settle.
Benefit: Filters dirt and large materials that may come from the toilet so the discharged water remains clean according to permitted standards. -
Bio Ball
Function: Biological media placed in the decomposition chamber to serve as a growth area for microorganisms that break down organic waste.
Benefit: Accelerates the decomposition process of organic substances in wastewater, improves the quality of the output, and reduces odor.
Structured and Functional Combination
All these components are arranged in a 3-chamber design, each with a specific function:
Chamber 1: Initial separation of solid and liquid waste.
Chamber 2: Biological decomposition using bio ball and honeycomb media.
Chamber 3: Final purification before the waste is discharged to the absorption area or drainage.
With this configuration, the O-Max FRP septic tank is not only strong and durable, but also efficient in treating household waste until good environmental standards can be achieved.
Understanding each part of the FRP Septic Tank and its function will help consumers, contractors, and project decision-makers in choosing a truly high-quality product. A product designed in detail, like O-Max, shows that performance is not only about the main material, but also about supporting accessories and an internal system that is well integrated.
