Headquartered in Lake Forest, California, BioShaft Water Technology owns the BioShaft System patent worldwide. The Company designs and manufactures domestic wastewater (Sewage) treatment plants using the BioShaft System patent. BioShaft is an innovative wastewater treatment technology based on Bio-Filtration utilizing biofilm carriers. These plants are made using the Hans BioShaft Turbine that is at the heart of the wastewater technology.
The plants have many benefits over traditional waste water treatment systems. In addition to being considered odorless, there is no sludge – the patented BioShaft’s attached growth process results in the elimination of sludge. Benefits also include lower energy consumption, and significantly less land requirements. The Hans BioShaft system is a process that can maintain itself as well as the world’s environment at a much higher level than conventional sewage treatment technology.
