Wetland Ecosystem Treatment

(WET) Systems

Integrated Wastewater Purification, Resource Production & Habitat Creation

 

Welcome to Biologic Design

Design and Creation of Regenerative, Ecological Wastewater Purification and Whole Site Water Systems.

Biologic Design works with a range of clients, specialising in the design and creation of Constructed Wetlands, known as Wetland Ecosystem Treatment or WET Systems.

  • Wetland Ecosystem Treatment - WET Systems

    Our WET Systems are multi-species, soil-based constructed wetland ecosystems.

    They use soil as the purification medium, rather than gravel as in conventional Reedbed Treatment Systems.

    As well as several reed species, WET Systems are planted with a range of native wetland trees and flowering marginal plants.

  • Whole Site Water Reticulation Systems

    A site water reticulation system creates a water retentive landscape, harvesting the all the water flows available:

    Rainwater, wastewater, springs, and watercourses can all be directed so that, in Permaculture Design terms, the water resource can ‘do its duty’ to create lush, abundant and productive landscapes.

    These whole-site systems can be planted as wetland habitat and also as productive functional landscapes.

How Biologic Design works with you

When creating a WET System, Biologic Design carries out and supervises all the work involved, right through from the initial consultation/appraisal of the site, the design, costing/quotation and the planning application; the creation and planting of the WET System, on to offering a complete management service to keep the system functioning in tip-top condition over the long term.

Please contact us by email for an initial discussion to talk through your wastewater options.

At this stage we will explore the following:

Your location, land, soil type; the type of wastewater you have, including volumetric and organic loadings, and projected increases.

If you would then like us to prepare a quotation for a WET System for you, we would arrange a site visit, for us to assess the earth resources on the site of the proposed WET System.

Since each WET System is site-specific, we cannot provide a quotation without first making a site visit.
