Barwythe Hall is a private residence set on Pedley Hill in Studham, Bedfordshire.

The rooms are of characteristic Georgian proportions, having lofty ceilings and large sash windows. The reception rooms are floored throughout in oak and have fine fireplaces.
Barwythe Hall was purchased by Andrew Beckingham in 2008. Andrew is presently refurbishing the Barwythe Hall and converting it back to its previous splendour as a private residence.

How The Tricel Sewage Treatment Plant Works



With a Tricel Novo plant you get a modern, high quality product that harnesses natural processes for effective sewage and wastewater treatment. The Tricel Plants have been thoroughly tested to internationally recognised standards.
Here’s how it works.

Stage 1: the primary settlement chamber

In the first stage of sewage treatment, anaerobic breakdown takes place in the primary settlement chamber. The wastewater is introduced and the solids drop to the bottom, becoming separated from the liquid.

Stage 2: the aeration chamber

The next stage of the wastewater treatment involves aerobic breakdown. This takes place in the aeration chamber, where masses of naturally occurring bacteria inhabit specially designed filter media.
These bacteria are sustained with air, which is continuously supplied from a purpose-built pump in the unit’s top section. As the liquid flows slowly through the filter media, the bacteria feed on the waste and remove it from the liquid.

Stage 3: final settlement chamber

In the last stage of wastewater treatment, the liquid flows from the aeration chamber into the final settlement chamber. Suspended sludge consisting of bacteria is carried with the liquid into the settlement chamber and settles to the bottom of the chamber.
From there, a continuous sludge return system pumps it back to the primary settlement chamber. The remaining treated liquid now meets the required standard to be safely passed out of the Tricel system.

Tricel Epurbloc

At Septic Tank Supplies we supply a range of septic tanks & shallow septic tanks. 
One of our most popular septic tanks is the Tricel Epurcbloc, which is manufactured to the highest international standards.

Is a septic tank the correct waste water solution for me?

You may install a septic tank where soil conditions are suitable for the treatment of waste water by meeting the standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency.  If your site conforms to the EPA / NIEA regulations and you have a consent to discharge effluent from your local authority, a septic tank may be a suitable choice for you.

How do septic tanks work?

The Tricel Epurbloc Septic Tanks Systems are a rugged design manufactured using polypropylene.  The tank is divided into two compartments.
  1. Waste water flows by gravity into Chamber 1.
  2. Solids and heavier material settle to the base of the unit. A small amount of anaerobic breakdown occurs at this stage.
  3. The liquid and lighter waste material flow over the baffle into the second chamber.
  4. A specially designed outlet pipe is fitted to the unit to ensure that only the liquid flows into the percolation area. This dip pipe prevents the scum from passing into the percolation area which may block pipes.
Final improvement of the waste water occurs as it penetrates through a specially designed percolation area.
How septic tanks work

What size tank do I need?

The UK guideline for calculating correct septic tank size is 2000 litres + 180 litres per person.  For example, a family of four would require 180 litres x 4 + 2000 litres giving a total capacity of 2720 litres.
In Ireland the same calculation is used but the guideline is for 150 litres per person rather than the 180 required in the UK.
Effective sizing ensures that the waste water is given a sufficient amount of time to settle in the primary chamber and to provide ample storage volume to slow down the rate of output into the percolation area.

We offer a range of sizes of the Tricel septic tank from the super shallow Epurblock through to commercial sizes.

We also offer the full range of Tricel Uk Sewage Treatment Plants.



The Tricel sewage treatment plant system was adopted to fulfill a need to provide exceptional wastewater treatment on sites that are unsuitable for a standard septic tank. When BS Standards EN12566-3, was introduced only treatment systems that have received European Certification can be installed.
The waste is treated through a mechanical aeration process. The level of treatment achieved enables the effluent to be discharged into a watercourse subject to receiving the relevant consent to discharge from the local regulatory bodies such as the Environment Agency for England and Wales, Scottish Environment Agency for Scotland and the Northern Ireland Environment Agency for Northern Ireland.
Tricel was awarded the CE mark after successfully completing 9 months of rigorous testing by the certified laboratory PIA Gmbh Testing Institute for Wastewater Technology in Aachen, Germany.

The Tricel system only requires a granular backfill with its standard invert and as long as site conditions allow.

Process and plant description
The ASP treatment plant comprises a single tank.  Within the tank there is an inner central bio-zone chamber and an outer settlement zone. 
The plant accepts and treats the incoming sewage, using the extended aeration principle, in the central bio-zone chamber.  A simple coarse bubble diffuser, housed in a draft tube, introduces the air that provides the oxygen to the bacteria, which then treats the sewage. 
The bio-zone retains the mixture of sewage and bacteria until the level of treatment has been achieved.
The treated effluent then enters the settlement zone where settlement takes place.  The settled solids are drawn back towards the draft tube, with the diffuser in it, and are then returned via the airlift principle to the bio-zone for further treatment. 
The treated (final) effluent subsequently leaves the plant over a weir, at the outlet level, that extends around the circumference of the tank.  The movement of fluid through the whole system is by gravity displacement. 
There are no moving parts in the treatment plant.
Specification:
  • Hydraulic Load: 1200 (l/day)
  • Max Flow Per Day: 1.2 (M³)
  • Organic Load: 360 (g BOD5/per day)

A little bit about Twist Up!


I do what I do because I love it. I have lived, travelled and worked within the events and festivals scene since I was 15 yrs old.
I’ve done some exciting things and worked with cool people, including Banksy, Inkie, Glastonbury, Strummerville, Secret Garden Party and loads more incredible people. I used to work for a Bigtop company hiring tents to circus and events. But when it became more about the money and less about enjoying the work I stopped loving it.
I always had a vision of creating an amazing festival venue with music, dancers, delicious and quality food and somewhere luxurious to sleep. A welcoming and fun place to be. And I did it. We are a family run business and are all passionate about what we do. My 11 yr old daughter choose the name “Twist Up! Productions” and with all my children’s dancing and musical talents it won’t be long before they are all performing on the stage too. We are very artistic and love to dress up, make costumes and fascinators. We all love a bit of bling in our lives. I have a love of photography and am an excellent cook. (If I may say so myself)
All these passions are incorporated into Twist Up! to make it something we can all enjoy doing and that everyone loves. The Twist Up! Stage already has a reputation for alternative music and theatre. It was a travelling carving arena and stage for Vandueller Sculpture appearing in Circus and Theatre field at Glastonbury festival and many other locations throughout the UK.
