Without heating or mixing, this reactor acts <br />as a primary sedimentation basin. Solids settle and anaerobic <br />bacteria, which live without oxygen, feed on solids and wastes <br />in the liquids. <br />The anaerobic reactor is usually buried below grade. It is <br />covered and gases produced are passed through an activated <br />carbon filter when necessary to control odor. <br />Home I Living Machines. Inc I Living Machines® <br />For The Planet.
