Anaerobic Chambers
Anaerobic process employs bacteria that does not
need air to survive, instead they directly utilize the
nutrients such as nitrates and carbon sources for food
going through a fermentation process and producing
organic acid and hydrocarbon by-products as a result of
making pathway aside normal oxygen use (aeration) and
carbon dioxide product same as human do in
respiration.
The common septic tank, which must be water tight,
is a classic example of an anaerobic system. Effluent
from anaerobic systems usually follows another step
before final discharge.
