Full Biotec Sewage Treatment Plant Servicing – Central Scotland & Glasgow Area
At Caledonia Environmental, we specialise in servicing sewage treatment plants across Scotland, including a recent job involving a full service of a Biotec system in Glasgow. Regular maintenance keeps systems compliant with SEPA regulations and operating at peak efficiency.
📍 Job Location
Newton Mearns, Glasgow, one of our many service areas for sewage treatment plant maintenance in Central Scotland.
⚙️ System Overview
The unit serviced was a Biotec 1 gravity discharge sewage treatment plant, common across domestic and light commercial properties in Glasgow, East Kilbride, Strathaven, and Biggar.
🧰 What We Did – Step-by-Step Breakdown
1. Initial Inspection
We inspected all major components, as part of our Biotec sewage treatment plant servicing in Glasgow and surrounding areas like Hamilton, Aberfoyle, and Cumbernauld:
- Blower condition
- Air pressure and aeration
- Diffuser performance
- Inlet/outlet flows
- Sludge volume levels
2. Internal Cleaning
We performed a deep clean of the sewage treatment unit, removing build-up and debris. This is standard for our sewage treatment plant servicing in rural Central Scotland, including Stirling, Callander, and West Lothian.
- Jet-washing all chambers
- Removing Sanitary products
- Clearing diffusers and air lines
3. Blower Replacement
The Secoh air pump was faulty, so we replaced it with a new JDK-60 model, part of our standard approach to sewage treatment plant blower replacement in Central and Southern Scotland.
- Installed new air hose
- Fitted new air blower
- Verified air pressure and flow rate
4. Outflow & Drainage Testing
To ensure full compliance with Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA) standards:
- Discharge pipe inspected
- Root ingress checked (an issue we often see in rural sites like Aberfoyle and Strathaven)
5. Documentation & Certification
We issued a full service report and compliance certificate, as we do for every job across Scotland, from Fife to Falkirk.
- Digital PDF copy sent to client
- Maintenance log updated
- Recommendations for future servicing
