MAGNA’S Poop Don’t Stink: Wastewater Treatment Options and the MBWS™
Not many people like to think about wastewater. We flush our toilets and rarely stop to think about where the water goes or how it effects the environment – this is why wastewater engineers are invaluable to our society
MAGNA has waded into the waters of wastewater treatment, using constructed wetlands as a nature-based treatment solution. We think about wastewater, so others don’t have to.
Project Profile: City of Estevan MBWS™ Demo
The City of Estevan MBWS™ is an excellent example of using constructed wetlands for wastewater treatment. The Demo uses the nature-based MAGNA Biofilter Wetland System to treat wastewater efficiently and in a cost effective manner.
Introducing the Lagoon Augmentation - MAGNA Biofilter Wetland System
The Lagoon Augmentation – MAGNA Biofilter Wetland System (LA-MBWS) is a modular engineered wetland polishing system proposed as an addition to existing lagoons in small communities. This new technology will provide improvements to the current system’s effluent, allowing communities to continuously discharge, decreasing the impact on receiving streams.
Nature-Based Wastewater Treatment Solutions
Nature-based wastewater treatment solutions are growing in demand to bridge the gap between traditional lagoon and mechanical treatment facilities. It’s important to know, however, that engineered wetlands are a well-established technology that have been used to treat municipal wastewater worldwide since the 1920’s. Popular in Germany and France, there have also been installations in North America including wetlands in …
