01
Tiger worms at work
When wastewater enters the BioPod, tiger worms and other organisms begin processing the retained organic material. Their movement opens channels through the filter bed and helps keep it naturally aerated.
The wider ecosystem converts solids into stable humus while liquid trickles through the many channels in the filter media for further treatment.

A self-adjusting living system
The worm population responds to the available food source. Activity can slow during quiet periods, then build again as household use increases.
- Natural aeration of the filter bed
- Organic material converted into humus
- Population responds to changing household use
- Low mechanical complexity
- Part of the complete BioPod treatment process
