System and method for treating wastewater entering a septic tank

摘要

A water conditioning system for use in a building that produces wastewater that contains phosphates. The wastewater exits the building through a pipe that directs the wastewater directly to a septic tank. A phosphate precipitation solution is provided in a reservoir. A flow meter is installed that measures fresh water flowing into the building. Furthermore, an injection port is installed into the pipe before the septic tank. The phosphate precipitation solution is pumped into the pipe through the injection port at a rate that is controlled by the flow being measured by the flow meter. The phosphate precipitation solution mixes with the wastewater to create treated effluent. The treated effluent flows into the septic tank where the phosphates form salts and collect as solids.
