In today’s changing climate, wineries are focusing on reducing and reusing water; and finding wastewater treatment solutions that work for your unique operation.

The right wastewater treatment system should meet local regulations, ensure trouble-free treatment with no odor (ideal for wineries with tasting rooms and guests), fit in a compact space, avoid expensive discharge fees and hold & haul expenses, or allow the wastewater to be reused.

Specialty Treatment Solutions (STS) helps with all of that, and more. STS is a premier provider of pre-engineered wastewater treatment systems for the wine industry, which can be customized to fit your specific needs. The STS team is comprised of industry experts who have many years of experience in irrigation, wine production, and wastewater treatment.

Specialty Treatment Solutions (STS) can help you:

• Evaluate your processes
• Reduce your water footprint and total wastewater produced
• Select the best wastewater treatment system for your current operation and future expansions
• Re-use water within your process, for irrigation or fire control

STS Systems:

STS specializes in wastewater bioreactor systems, the most compact and efficient way of treating wastewater in the wine industry.

Most STS systems include moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBR) and membrane bioreactors (MBR). They are modular in design and construction, making for easier installation and allowing for future expansion.

They can be used for small, seasonal operations (1,000 gallons per day of wastewater) up to much larger wineries (over 300,000 gallons per day of wastewater). So, whether you are producing 3,000 cases or 3,000,000 cases of wine annually, STS can help.

STS System Features:

• Energy efficient with low life-cycle costs
• Meets and exceeds governing agency effluent regulations
• Treats process waste, sanitary waste, or combined wastewater
• Flexible, aesthetically pleasing, and odor-free
• Designed to be monitored remotely for peace of mind
• Compact with a small footprint and an integrated tank design

STS is there for you, beyond the installation. We pride ourselves in a focus on service and support, and offer peace of mind with our performance guarantee. Plus, our State certified team provides daily remote monitoring from any location with internet access and operation capabilities.
