Decentralised Treatment & Reuse (DTR)

Decentralised Treatment & Reuse (DTR) is a truly sustainable sewage treatment infrastructure model. DTR aids in closing the water cycle and delivers capital, operational and environmental benefits for all stakeholders.

As a completely decentralised infrastructure configuration, DTR is unique. By using tried tested and proven Kubota technology, DTR minimises risk, removes the unknowns and delivers long-term.

DTR is a type of pressurised sewage system. The key point of difference when compared to a traditional pressurised sewage system is that the sewage pump station on each property is replaced with a Kubota treatment station. Each Kubota treatment station transfers highly treated reclaimed water from the property and throughout the community for reuse via a reuse main. The reuse main captures reclaimed water from each property and transfers it to allocated locations for reuse.

As the reuse main services every street within the community, it is simple and cost effective to provide reclaimed water to all reuse applications throughout the community. The DTR solution provides a reliable water source for agriculture, improving parks and greenspace, and aids in fire control and drought proofing.

DTR is reliable, versatile and uncomplicated, maximising control of capital investment and growth by providing site by site infrastructure provision which moves in step with demand.
