Natural water purification in Portugal
Reed beds, gravel filters and planted lagoons do with plants and time what a treatment plant does with chemicals and pumps. On a rural property with no connection to a public sewer (which describes a great deal of the Portuguese interior) they are often the only sensible option.
Ecodepur designs and manufactures treatment systems from Ourém and Environmental Waves works the same field in the north. Bio Piscinas builds chemical-free natural swimming pools in the Algarve, Oásis Biosistema designs living systems from Lisbon, and Eco Construções integrates them into bio-construction projects near Fafe.
Sizing and permits are the two places these go wrong; both are worth professional advice. See also greywater systems, compost toilets and off-grid systems. Dated activities from these projects are listed in our events calendar.
