What does aerobic mean?
JSA: There are two types of bacteria. One is anerobic which is the type found in a traditional septic tank. The bacteria breaks down the solid waste in this closed environment of the tank without oxygen. The second type of bacteria is aerobic which uses oxygen to break down the solid waste. The aerobic septic system introduces oxygen either in a mechanical way with a pump and agitator which requires electricity, or the more preferred and less expensive way through the introduction of bio-solutions where oxygen-generating bacteria are used.
