“Our facility implemented the STI system for solid waste management and it has greatly improved our waste disposal process. The system is efficient and environmentally friendly.”
BioSAFE Continuous Flow Effluent Decontamination Systems (EDS) are cutting-edge solutions for efficient and environmentally friendly liquid waste management. With advanced engineering and superior reliability, BioSAFE EDS offer a cost-effective way to handle liquid waste generated in various types of facilities.
Effluent Decontamination Systems are designed to treat liquid waste generated in agricultural, biopharmaceutical, and research facilities from non-containment up to BSL-3 and BSL-4 classification. Treatable contaminants include:
Effluent decontamination Systems can be designed for either continuous flow or batch processing depending on facility volume and can be configured to use either heat or chemicals to decontaminate liquid waste streams.
All BioSAFE EDS are built to spec for your facility.
Standard features include:

Generally BSL3, BSL3-ag, and BSL4 facilities are required to have an effluent treatment system in place. Some BSL2 facilities may also, based on a site-specific biosafety risk assessment, choose to put in place an effluent decontamination system.
Effluent decontamination systems also have agriscience, pharmaceutical, and biotech applications, where they are used to thermally or chemically treat waste and byproduct streams.
Effluent decontamination systems are generally focused on neutralizing biological pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses. Effluent decontamination systems can also neutralize some chemical compounds. For non-standard applications, BioSAFE can design custom treatment solutions.
The amount of solids in the liquid waste stream will vary depending on the facility. A higher volume of solids will begin to impact system efficacy, so there are several strategies to mitigate this, including adding screens to drains, adding grinder pumps, installing additional filters, and changing site SOPs. The expected amount of solids will also play a role in system selection, with batch type systems generally being better able to manage solids than continuous flow type systems.
BioSAFE’s effluent decontamination systems can be designed to handle any amount of waste, from 100 gallons per day to 100,000 gallons per day or more.
BioSAFE effluent decontamination systems have a ~20-25 year minimum life expectancy when properly serviced and maintained.
Effluent decontamination systems are custom engineered for your facility. We deliver and install or oversee the installation of each system. Our team can also provide ongoing maintenance, training, and support for your system.
