Abstract: Systems, processes, apparatus, and articles of manufacture that may be configured, designed, manufactured, transported, installed or operated to subsequently provide water distribution between or within areas of an infiltration field are provided. The water distribution within an infiltration field may be via a distribution conduit positioned in direct contact with a water egress portion of an infiltration field. The water egress portion of the infiltration field may be positioned at the bottom or along the sides of an infiltration field galley, at the bottom or along the sides of a channel, whether in a module or other application, at the bottom or along the sides of an infiltration baffle matrix, and/or at the bottom or along the sides of other water egress areas of an infiltration field.

Abstract: Applied loads to the soil or material directly above the water treatment system components may be managed in embodiments so as to not exceed a maximum value similar to that imposed by walking, riding mowers, pedestrian traffic, or other lower load values. Managing the applied loads to soil or other material above a water infiltration field or other water treatment component serve to reduce or eliminate soil compaction and thereby maintain air flow through the soil and to and from the underlying water treatment system components. When footers are used and located outside of the water treatment system components, the imposed soil loads may be higher as soil compaction in areas not above the water treatment system may not be needed for proper air flow to and from the infiltration field or other water treatment system component.

Abstract: Relatively greater capillarity material layers and relatively lesser capillarity material layers are provided. These layers can be used to promote capillary wetting in capillary wetting zones to promote prolonged periods of water retention. Carbon sources present in the capillary wetting zones may exhibit prolonged use provided by limited drying and wetting cycles experienced in the capillary wetting zones. Carbon sources positioned between saturated layers may exhibit prolonged use provided by anoxic conditions created by upper and lower water seals of the saturated layers. Capillarity layers can be employed in infiltration systems handling water, such as residential wastewater.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems involving wastewater treatment systems are provided. Plastic grids, with first and second legs are provided. These first and second legs have distal ends separated from each other. Flat pipes are also provided for wastewater treatment systems.

Abstract: Carbon sources, such as food-grade oil, present in or above infiltration fields or other areas of water leaching systems, are employed, the water leaching systems having one or more layers. Carbon sources, such as food-grade oil, whether in aerobic or anaerobic conditions or saturated and unsaturated conditions may provide denotification of water interfacing with the oil or other carbon source.

Abstract: Infiltration system management and operation is provided using leading indicators. These leading indicators may be sensed at various locations and compared to a target value or range or other criteria when making adjustments to blower, vacuum, pump, or valve operation of an infiltration system. Other operational components or parameters may also be adjusted when considering one or more leading indicator. For instance, sacrificial carbon sources may also be added or replaced based on the status of a leading indicator and its comparison to a target value or range.

Abstract: Use of Fenton's reagent or modified Fenton's reagent is described to promote rejuvenation of water treatment systems hampered by bioclogging matter. Hydraulic flow through one or more components of the water treatment system may be enhanced through the use of modified Fenton's reagent.

Abstract: Nested bands of treatment media and distribution media in an infiltration area are described. These nested bands may be positioned to promote water flow to and through the infiltration area. The nested bands may be linear or non-linear and may be vertically elongated such that they have installation depths deeper than conventional infiltration areas.

Abstract: Reconfigurable water leaching modules are provided herein. These modules may comprise a plurality of dosing conduits and a plurality of leaching channels fluidly coupled to the dosing conduits where the leaching channels are reconfigurable from a first retracted position to a second extended position and where the leaching channels may hang downwardly from the dosing conduits in the second extended position.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems involving high aspect ratio conduits are provided. These may involve a plurality of high aspect ratio leaching channels that may be spaced a predetermined distance apart from each other. The predetermined distance can facilitate backfilling of the volumes of adjacent high aspect ratio leaching channels. The backfill may be sand as well as other materials.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems involving wastewater treatment systems are provided. The descriptions include a wastewater conduit with a pair of curved infiltrative surfaces. These curved infiltrative surfaces pass wastewater from within the conduit to outside of the conduit.

Abstract: Embodiments may be directed to processes, devices, systems, and manufactures involving water leaching systems. Embodiments may comprise one or more receiving chambers and a plurality of outriggers connected to one or more receiving chambers in such a way as to provide support against external loads acting on the one or more receiving chambers. The outriggers may be directly coupled with chambers and may be spaced apart from chambers as well. The outriggers may also be integrated with the chambers and may be added to or detachable from the chambers. The outriggers along with the chambers may each provide for leaching of wastewater or other water from them along one or more of their sides.

Abstract: Wastewater leaching chambers and leaching channels are disclosed. The chambers may include a recess for receiving a wastewater supply, the recess serving to lower the overall height of the combined chamber and supply. The recess also configured to tightly seat the supply and form a gap therebetween. Leaching channels having a high aspect ratio may also be coupled to or otherwise in fluid communication with the chamber.

Abstract: A wastewater system is provided. The system includes channels and conduits for wastewater guidance and discharge. High aspect ratio channels and one or more distribution conduits are provided in the system such that wastewater, such as septic wastewater, is discharged from the system and into the system surroundings. The high aspect ratio channels are spaced apart from each other to allow for the discharge of the wastewater effluent from the system between the channels. The channels have a high height to width aspect ratio.
