It's pretty formulaic. Head to Amazon and get a copy of Metcalf & Eddy and start treating wastewater.
The real issue is that wastewater treatment is energy intense. It takes a lot of horses to keep the smelly water bubbling, and the heavy sludge circulating where it needs to get to.
Removing emerging contaminants like PFAs is even more energy intense, requiring heavy pumps to push water through filters.
But it's money well spent if you value a clean environment.
Now consider the lakehouse your family enjoys in the summer - where does the wastewater go? Does it go to a septic system? Is it short circuiting straight into the lake?
