Septic tanks and drainage in Middelburg
Middelburg is a farming and steel town where the sewer reaches most of the older suburbs, but not the surrounding district. Homes in Eastdene, Aerorand and Kanonkop are mainly connected, while smallholdings and farms along the Hendrina and Belfast roads depend on septic tanks, soakaways and the odd french drain. Winter is cold and dry and summer storms are heavy, so soakaways that cope in June can flood in January. Clay soils with a shallow rock layer in places limit absorption trenches. Honey sucker trucks work from town and from eMalahleni, and farmers often combine a pump-out with a drainage inspection on the same visit.
Typical biodigesters requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a compact digester that replaces an old septic tank at an off-sewer house
- Farms and game farms: digesters for worker housing, sometimes fed with manure to raise biogas output
- Smallholdings and plots: a larger digester with biogas for the kitchen and treated water for the garden
- Factories, mines, sites and events: a site unit for staff ablutions at a quarry, depot or remote works
- Restaurants, shops and offices: a small unit for a roadside shop or office that is far from a sewer
- Estates and complexes: a shared digester for a small cluster, with approval from the body corporate
- Schools, churches and clinics: a digester for a rural school or clinic where pump-out trucks are far away
