Taylex Advanced Secondary Wastewater Treatment Systems are safe, environmentally sound, reliable and cost efficient. Our advanced secondary treatment of wastewater systems use natural processes to turn wastewater into clean, safe water which can be recycled on-site.
If your property is not connected to a council sewer, you need to treat your household wastewater on-site using a Home Sewage Treatment System.
Environmental benefits
Reduces the impact on local ecosystems by treating wastewater responsibly and promoting water recycling.
Cost savings
Decreases long-term sewage disposal costs by enabling you to manage your own wastewater on-site.
Independence
Provides a reliable and self-sufficient wastewater management option, especially in areas without access to a municipal sewer system.
Superior treatment quality
Produces water 65 times cleaner than septic tank effluent, significantly outperforming other treatment systems, and effectively treats all types of wastewater, including black and grey water.
The first stop for your household wastewater is in the ‘Primary Chamber’. Here solids will naturally sink to the bottom and fats and oils will naturally float to the top, leaving a clearer “Supernatant Zone” in the middle. This zone will transfer to the next stage of treatment.
Next is the ‘Secondary Chamber’. Further settling happens here. Again, water from the middle flows onto the next stage, there is also an additional “Bio-Mass” block in this chamber to assist with the separation of solids. In a traditional Septic System, this is where the journey would end and effluent would now be pumped onto your property and into our environment, relying on sand or soil to do the rest. With a Taylex Wastewater Treatment System, there are still four more steps to produce clean, clear, safe water for your yard.
The ‘Aeration Chamber’ is next up. This is where the magic happens. Your quiet, reliable, energy-efficient Nitto Blower send oxygen into the chamber in the form of tiny bubbles. These bubbles pass through a specially designed structure called “Bio-Mass”. Bio Mass is purpose designed to trap the air bubbles to feed naturally occurring ‘Aerobic bacteria’. These microscopic Eco-Warriors are now hard at work, chomping through most of the remaining organic matter, polishing the water, and eliminating odour.
Step four is in the ‘Clarification Chamber’. More settling occurs here. Once settled to the bottom, this potent mix of Aerobic bacteria and fine particle solids are recirculated to the Primary Chamber to keep it healthy and working hard (not smelly).
The final step in the treatment process is the ‘Disinfection Chamber’. The water gets a ‘kiss’ goodbye from our Chlorinator which removes any harmful bacteria, viruses and pathogens. Using less chlorine per litre than your average swimming pool, the system removes any harmful bacteria, viruses and pathogens.
Lastly, when the Disinfection Chamber fills up, your dependable irrigation pump automatically switches on to send your water out to do its job in your yard. Crystal clear water irrigates your designated area and returns safely to nature, contributing to a healthy water cycle.

Taylex systems have the largest emergency storage buffers currently available on the market. In cases where surge loading events can’t be avoided (like parties or in the unlikely event there is a critical fault with your system) your family has up to 9.8 days of storage (assuming a 600L daily flow). That’s 1,963 toilet flushes or 13 hours of shower time!
