Abstract: The present application relates to liquid distribution system. More specifically, the present application relates to a device for controlled discharge of liquid, comprising: an extendable pipe having a bottom end and a top end being extendable from a collapsed position to an extended position; a floating plate connected to the top end of the pipe and having an opening in fluid communication with the pipe and the bottom end for receiving and for discharging said liquid, the floating plate being configured to float on the surface of the liquid, and the extendable pipe is configured to extend to the extended position when an increasing level of liquid forces the plate to rise up until the extended position is reached; wherein at said extended position, the floating plate is configured to fill with liquid and collapse to reach the collapsed position whereat the liquid flows inside the pipe and through the bottom end for discharging the liquid.

Abstract: The present application relates to biofiltration materials for filtering a fluid. More specifically, the present application relates to a biofilter material comprising consolidated organic material, and use of such biofilter material for wastewater treatment. Provided is a biofilter bloc for wastewater treatment comprising a porous consolidated assembly of at least 20% w/w of organic materials, and wherein the consolidated assembly shows a density of about 35 kg/m3 to about 275 kg/m3.
