ORWC Testing Facility & Field Scale Demonstration

Our new testing facility in Alfred is complete and already being used for controlled testing, research and development of on-site technologies. An on-site certified wastewater laboratory is also available for sample analysis.

The ORWC also conducts field evaluation studies. This typically involves setting up new technology at one or more residences and monitoring the results.

The online testing facility features:

  • Tanks receive typical domestic wastewater from municipal sewer
  • ability to evaluate up to six technologies at a time
  • Dosage pumps and controls
  • flow monitoring and control capabilities
  • capability to evaluate wastewater treatment technologies and alternative soil absorption systems
