Ecological System for Treating Industrial and Agricultural Effluents: SETEIA©

SETEIA

Our concept of biological effluent treatment


Azuvia has developed an ecological and biological system for industrial wastewater treatment. This unique concept of  Filter Press meets the needs of  compliance professionals in terms of liquid effluent treatment while overcoming the disadvantages of conventional wastewater treatment plants.

The Filter Press is a nature-based solution that incorporates an intensification of the natural processes present in the environment.

Our approach is based on our knowledge of sector-specific characteristics and internal data specific to each industrial site. This sizing study enables us to offer our clients a treatment process tailored to their production, from the point of exit from the production line to the reuse of treated wastewater.

Our technology makes it possible to clean up industrial effluents that mainly contain organic matter, such as wine effluents, from the food industry, fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, flavors and fragrances, biowaste treatment.



Our technology is based on three key principles

lagoon

Bio-purification

Bio-purification biopurification  is a pollution control process based on thethe combined action  of plants and microorganisms. Bacteria, organized into biofilm on a substrate, break down organic matter and transform  the nitrogen pollutants. Plants, meanwhile, absorb  the nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus) and  certain heavy metals, thereby helping to purify the water. This biological treatment, inspired by natural ecosystems, effectively cleans up industrial or agricultural effluents while preserving biodiversity.

hydroponic cultivation

 Hydroponics     

Hydroponics is a method of growing plants soil-less  where plants grow in an inert substrate (such as coconut fiber or clay pellets), irrigated with the water to be treated. This vertical system  minimizes the footprint and allows for the installation of several layers of crops. The plants and microorganisms thrive in a semi-aquatic environment, which promotes  successive filtration of pollutants and offers a solution that is both effective and aesthetically pleasing for water purification.

greenhouse

The controlled greenhouse environment    

The greenhouse provides a controlled environment controlled  that protects plants and microorganisms from adverse weather conditions (rain, wind, frost, etc.). It maintains optimal temperature, humidity, and light conditions, which are essential for effective biological treatment. Thanks to this climate control, the filter greenhouse guarantees consistent performance throughout the year , while ensuring harmonious integration into the landscape and odor containment.

We offer technology

Unique and patented

Totally unique, the Serre-Filtrante® is an exclusive technology exclusive , developed by Azuvia and protected by several patents in France and Europe. The core function of the Serre-Filtrante is water purification, but this device, which also produces food, energy, and clean water for reuse, is completely unique and unprecedented.

Automated and connected

The system is fully controlled by a PLC  that regulates the treatment cycles according to the volumes and the pollutant load. A integrated analysis probe  allows real-time monitoring of the effectiveness of the pollution control. In the event of an anomaly, alerts are sent automatically , ensuring continuous monitoring. This connectivity also enables remote monitoring and control , facilitating the operation and maintenance of the device.

Compact and attractive

The Serre-Filtrante® is designed to fit into the most constrained environments. Each module occupies approximately 4 m²  to treat up to 1,000 L/day , with the possibility of vertical expansion thanks to multi-level hydroponic cultivation. Its green design and closed structure ensure harmonious integration into the landscape , without visual or olfactory nuisance. A wide range of customizable greenhouses is available to meet the aesthetic expectations of industrial, wine-growing, or agricultural sites.
