Smarter Septic for Rural Living

Engineered Solutions With Local Impact
As rural homeowners face aging infrastructure, changing environmental regulations and the need for more efficient systems, a new generation of advanced onsite wastewater technologies is stepping in. From nitrogen-reducing systems to modular, passive designs that operate without electricity, these solutions are built for performance, sustainability and ease of installation.
The following systems highlight recent innovations designed to improve effluent quality, extend the life of drainfields and meet the needs of acreage properties across a range of site conditions.
BIOMAZE SYSTEM
Keeping Flocks Safe From Airborne Threats
As avian flu continues to threaten poultry operations across the U. S., Avian Enterprises, LLC has introduced Avian Migrate, a bird repellant aimed at protecting chickens from infected waterfowl.
The Environmental Protection Agencyapproved formula uses food-safe ingredients and is applied as a mist around poultry farms and grassy areas to deter geese, ducks and swans— primary carriers of the virus.
A unique InvisiDye additive makes the treated area visible to birds, reinforcing avoidance behavior. This tool adds a new layer of biosecurity for farmers seeking to reduce risk and safeguard the health of their flocks.
Cellular Camera Boosts Coop Security
With the rise in backyard poultry keeping, protecting flocks from predators and theft is a growing concern. The Defend Cellular Security Camera from Tactacam offers a reliable, Wi- Fi-free monitoring solution for coops and open-range areas. The camera delivers high-definition imaging and night vision, allowing users to clearly see their flock even in low light. Motion-activated alerts are sent directly to mobile devices, offering real-time updates. An optional solar panel extends battery life, making it ideal for remote or off-grid setups.
Designed for year-round use, it helps owners safeguard their chickens while staying connected, even from afar.
The BioMaze system by RioVation is a retrofit wastewater treatment solution designed to upgrade existing septic tanks. Using the company’ s Suspended Biofilm Generator, or SBG, technology, the system enhances the breakdown of organic matter and improves effluent quality. It is designed to help restore failing drainfields without excavation by creating an environment that supports the growth of beneficial bacteria. This biological process reduces solids and odors within the tank, improving overall system performance.
The BioMaze system is compatible with most standard residential and commercial septic tanks, making it suitable for a variety of installations. Its in-tank configuration allows for easy retrofitting without major site disruption. The design does not require chemicals or moving parts, supporting lowmaintenance operation.
By improving the treatment process inside the tank, the system reduces strain on the drainfield, which can extend the life of existing septic systems and improve environmental outcomes in areas with aging infrastructure.
ECOFLO LINEAR BIOFILTER
The Ecoflo Linear Biofilter from Premier Tech Water and Environment is a National Sanitation Foundation( NSF)-certified onsite wastewater treatment system designed to minimize environmental impact. It uses a renewable coco filter media derived from coconut husks, which provides effective filtration and nutrient reduction. The treatment chambers are constructed from 90 % recycled plastic, contributing to the system’ s sustainability. The modular design allows for flexible configurations, accommodating different site conditions and installation requirements. The linear layout is wellsuited for narrow or constrained lots, and the system is compatible with both new and existing septic systems.
The Ecoflo system operates passively, requiring no energy to treat wastewater after the septic tank, and it produces minimal sludge, reducing long-term maintenance demands. Designed for residential and small commercial applications, the Ecoflo Linear Biofilter offers consistent performance in a compact footprint. It is certified to NSF / ANSI( American National Standards Institute)-Standard 40 and helps support regulatory compliance in areas with stringent wastewater treatment requirements.
