Sewage treatment systems
Transform your property with a modern, eco-friendly sewage treatment system designed and installed by Scenic Wastewater. Operating across Queensland, our expert team specialises in delivering innovative solutions tailored to your needs—whether you’re looking to optimise a residential space or meet commercial demands.
What is sewage?
Sewage, also known as blackwater, is the wastewater generated from toilets, showers, sinks, and other household or industrial uses. It contains bacteria and pathogens that can be hazardous to health if not treated properly.
A new era of sewage management
Say goodbye to outdated, inefficient systems. Our state-of-the-art sewage treatment systems utilise naturally-occurring bacteria to efficiently and safely treat sewage/blackwater. The result? Reduced environmental impact, compliance with local and national regulations, and an effortlessly maintained system that integrates seamlessly with your lifestyle.
Experts in eco-friendly solutions
Our treatment systems use natural bacteria in wastewater to break down organic waste without harmful chemicals. Through a multi-stage process, we create ideal conditions for bacteria to thrive, targeting different waste types for thorough water purification. This sustainable approach reduces chemical use, minimises environmental impact, and promotes cleaner water and healthier ecosystems for the future.
How does it work?
Our sewage treatment systems operate over three key phases:
- Primary chamber: Where grey and black water is separated, allowing solids to settle, while liquids rise to the top for further treatment.
- Secondary chamber: Uses aerobic and anaerobic bacteria to break down pollutants, with oxygen bubbles enhancing these natural processes.
- Final chamber: Treats and disinfects wastewater with chlorine or UV light, readying it for safe irrigation use.
These processes not only comply with Queensland regulations but also contribute to sustainable water practices for properties of all sizes.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between a sewage treatment system and a septic tank?
While both systems manage wastewater, a septic tank primarily separates solids and liquids before discharging wastewater to a drain field. A sewage treatment system, however, goes further by using advanced biological processes to actively treat and cleanse the water, making it safe for reuse or environmentally friendly discharge.
Does this system require regular maintenance?
Yes, in Queensland, quarterly maintenance is mandatory for HSTPs to ensure optimal operation and regulatory compliance. Scenic Wastewater offers tailored maintenance plans to keep your system running smoothly with minimal disruption.
Is a sewage treatment system energy-efficient?
Absolutely. Our systems are designed to consume as little energy as possible, coupled with low running costs, making them ideal for environmentally conscious property owners.
Can you install sewage treatment systems for commercial properties?
Yes. Scenic Wastewater offers scalable solutions for both residential and commercial properties, with expertise in installing systems for businesses requiring higher sewage handling capacity than a standard home.
