The cesspool begins to fill faster than before. This indicates a decrease in the efficiency of her work. This happens, as a rule, due to the deposition of insoluble fat on the walls of the pit. Fat gradually fills the pores in the soil, preventing water from flowing into the soil. The cleaning function is terminated. The pit turns into a fetid swamp.
The danger of fat formation
Fat deposits are also dangerous because they settle on the walls of the pit, they form a sticky film. The film has the ability to hold fragments of small particles. Gradually filling the entire free space of the soil with insoluble particles that settle on a layer of fat, the wall in the cesspool is covered with an insoluble crust. Sometimes there is the formation of small stones that settle to the bottom, gradually filling the hole.
The combination of such factors as insoluble wall crust, stones, and the formation of plaque in places leads to a deterioration in the cleaning properties. Water ceases to be filtered through the soil, as all pores are clogged. The pit turns into a simple drive filled with a viscous liquid. A persistent pungent odor begins to appear. In winter, this is accompanied by freezing of the sump. The problem that arises poses the problem of solving it in accessible and economical ways. First of all, the removal of body fat.
Fat Breakdown Products
Practical experience of gardeners allows us to talk about several ways to remove deposits. Consider the options when using tools for the decomposition of fat. They practically do not require much effort from the gardener.
Cesspool cleaner Roetech K-47 It has high fat-degrading properties. Other types of waste and sediment are also under his power. After its application, the volume of solid precipitation decreases significantly. Before using K-47, you must:
- Stir the contents by repeated shaking.
- Open the lid of the container, send the contents to the tank.
- In the absence of water in the pit, it is necessary to pour it.
The operation is performed twice a year. You can repeat it at will. A bottle with a capacity of 946 ml is enough for maintenance of 2 cubic meters. There is no harm to people, animals and plants. Keep out of the reach of children. Not to drink. The tool works well with fat, soap, paper.
Roetech K-87 is a further development of the purifier. Its creators provided an increase in the breakdown power of body fat. It has become more effective in the fight against siltation of pits. Its use allows you to deal with the remnants of soap, paper, which, together with fat, brought sewage treatment plants intooperative.
An aqueous solution of bacteria of the genus Bacillus subtilis, Bacillis macerans, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Bacillus pumilis. These bacteria decompose substances that threaten nature. They are safe. The bottle contains 946 ml. It is enough to handle 2m3 containers. Safety requirements include protection against children and from ingestion. Is safe.
Other biological substances also exist. They are tablets. This form is considered the most convenient. Enough and one pill to anaerobic bacteria start their cleansing work. The dosage, depending on the proposed volume of the pit with sewage, is written in the attached instructions. Usually one or two tablets are thrown into the reservoir every month. It is believed that this is sufficient for the effective purification of sediment. At the same time, suspended particles are not forgotten, the smell is neutralized. The anaerobic bacteria that are used for this, perfectly perform their functions in the absence of lighting and oxygen.Sometimes instead of tablets, biological preparations are released in a cassette version. Such a cartridge contains microorganisms. Apply water-soluble bags with similar contents.
The market of biological products offers the following tools:
- Bioactivator Saneks. It is a powder. To give it a working condition, insist in warm water for 20 minutes. During this time, bacteria are activated. It works great not only with sewage, but also with fats, starch, paper and organic fibers. Water, after its use, is suitable for irrigation.
- Dr. Robik. Rich in microorganisms, it makes it easy to cope not only with organics, but also to ensure the decomposition of phenols, fats and detergents. The bag is designed for cleaning 5 m. Cube of effluents. It is used only in the presence of water. If necessary, the well freed from the liquid is filled with water before adding this agent.
- Bioactivator "Green pine". Includes: bacteria, organic carriers, enzymes. Coniferous flavor added. Fights fats, sewage, does not allow flies to multiply. Convenient in that the contents of the pit after processing can be used as fertilizer.
- Bio septum. Universal remedy. It is subject to sediment and fats, in addition to excrement. Afraid of only chlorine-containing substances that kill bacteria.
How else can you solve the problem
The easiest way is complete clearing of contents. It starts with the fact that liquid waste is removed manually or using technology. Then plaque is removed from the walls of the pit and the bottom. This frees the pores of the soil to filter the fluid. After these operations, you can continue to use the cesspool. The work is laborious. This is a method of mechanically removing fat during cleaning. It may be necessary to use special equipment: a pump, a cesspool machine. It all depends on the type of cesspool or tank that is used as a sewage tank.
The problem is simplified by simply burying the old cesspool. The state of its walls due to the deposition of insoluble fat, filling the bottom with stones and sediment is such that they are practically tight. Therefore, after backfilling, problems should not arise. The presence of places where it is possible to dig a new hole will allow you to limit yourself to an elementary digging, both manually and with the help of improvised tools or special machines. It all depends on the availability of certain opportunities.
The method of digging a new hole is used if other methods for solving the problem of returning the cleansing function have been exhausted. Sometimes both pits combine. For this, work is carried out consisting of the following steps:
- next to the old they dig another tank;
- bring it into working condition;
- using the pipeline we connect both pits;
- close them.
In this case, both containers are used. Burying is not necessary. Old serves for the accumulation of solid waste. The new one accepts a liquid filtered from particles.
Problem prevention
It completely does not work out getting fat into the drain hole. Detergents that are commonly used only flush, not dissolve, the fat. Therefore, a mixture of water and fat flows into the tank. This shows that the struggle with fatty deposits is to reduce its amount falling into the drain hole. There are several ways to achieve this. For example, you can use a fairly simple method. It consists in the fact that the remains of the used fat must be poured into the container allocated for this, which after filling it should be thrown away like garbage.
However, there is another way to deal with fat. This is a fat catcher installation. The essence of the operation of such a device is that water with residual fat is passed through it. Water leaves, but fat remains inside. The accumulated fat is removed. The principle of operation is based on the fact that fat and water have different densities. Fat is easier. He stays on top. It can be deleted.So get rid of the formation of deposits of insoluble fat. The life of the tank without cleaning is extended.
