xylit
The x-perco® trickling filter is a biological filter that uses the natural wastewater purification principle. This technology is powerless. Treatment is provided by a bacteria population fixed to an fibre called xylit.
a circular economy filtering medium
xylit is an organic waste which eloy water recycles for use as a filtering medium. xylit is a by-product of lignite extraction. It does not have sufficient heating power to be used as a fuel, which means that it is completely useless unless it is used in our x-perco® compact filter. The xylit is recycled a second time when its purifying performance declines. It can be composted and returned to the earth in a circular economy process.
many benefits
- high mechanical strength guarantees excellent stability over time
- the large surface area encourages the development of a dense bacterial biofilm much more quickly than any other filtering medium
- can be composted according to the NF U-44-095 standard. At the end of its life cycle, the xylit can be brought to A15 composting centres
- long life span of minimum 12 years.

wastewater treatment in three phases
The oxyfix® is a solution for the treatment of wastewater with a small footprint. Three phases take place in turn to complete the treatment and discharge the treated water.
wastewater treatment in two steps
The x-perco® trickling filter treats wastewater by reproducing the purification processes found in nature. After a first decantation phase, the wastewater is then treated using a filtering medium: the xylit.
the oxybee®
Your oxyfix® uses the submerged aerobic fixed-film technology, better known as SAFF. Bacteria are the main players in the treatment process. Within the oxyfix®, they fasten themselves to a medium/biocarrier designed by eloy called the oxybee®.
