The modular RBCs, supplied by Kee Process, discharge near a local bathing beach, and due to environmentally sensitive nature of the area it was decided to apply UV disinfection to the final effluent.

The UV disinfection process treats up to 30,000 litres per day and is the final treatment stage before discharge.

This reduces the risk of infection by human pathogens to bathers and devotees of water sports.
