Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) for Residential Apartments
Smart, Compact & Efficient Sewage Treatment for Housing Societies
VEPL’s Residential STP systems are compact, reliable, and low-maintenance solutions designed to meet the wastewater treatment needs of residential buildings, townships, gated communities, and apartments. Built to comply with CPCB/SPCB norms, our plants offer efficient treatment while promoting treated water reuse for non-potable applications such as flushing, gardening, and car washing.
Product Overview
VEPL STPs use proven biological treatment technologies such as MBBR, SBR, or ASP, based on project requirements, land availability, and discharge quality standards. The system ensures minimum odor, low sludge, and quiet operation, making it ideal for integration into residential environments.
