AquaNova Group

Wastewater treatment built around the plant you already have.

Since 2015, AquaNova has developed a two-part treatment platform: rapid oxidation for immediate contaminant pressure and biological treatment for continued recovery.
How we think about treatment

Do not make the plant fit the product.

Municipal and industrial operators already have tanks, pumps, biological systems, staff routines and discharge targets. AquaNova's treatment approach starts there.

Municipal sewer networks

H₂S, odour, corrosion and dosing points in rising mains or pump-station systems.

Wastewater treatment works

Sludge pressure, organic load, biological performance and capacity constraints.

Industrial wastewater

High COD, pathogens, difficult compounds and discharge targets specific to the facility.

Reuse projects

Upstream contaminant reduction before the polishing and monitoring required by the intended reuse application.

Operating principles

A practical treatment sequence.

Measure the condition

Start with what the water is doing: H₂S, COD, sludge, pathogens, capacity pressure or reuse constraints.

Use the existing plant

The preferred intervention works with installed infrastructure wherever practical rather than turning treatment into a capital rebuild.

Separate fast chemistry from living biology

T3 Hydrox addresses immediate oxidative load; Hydrobiotics continues the biological recovery where the application needs both.

Track the result

A treatment programme is only useful if the operating condition moves in the direction the plant needs.

Company history

Ten years of treatment work.

2015

AquaNova Group founded in South Africa

The company began with a focus on improving difficult wastewater conditions without assuming that operators could rebuild the plant around a new technology.

2016

T3 Hydrox enters the treatment platform

Advanced oxidation became the fast-response part of the AquaNova treatment approach, aimed at H₂S, odour and difficult contaminant load in existing flows.

2018

Independent toxicity testing

CSIR testing classified the product as Class I Non-Hazardous in the cited AquaNova certification record.

2019

Hydrobiotics expands the biological phase

The treatment platform added microbial cultures for continued work on sludge and residual organic load after the immediate oxidation phase.

2022

Abu Dhabi sewer trial

AquaNova records a 2,000 ppm H₂S starting condition moving to a non-detectable reading in under three minutes, with sludge reduction reported over the following six weeks.

2025–2028

Drakenstein Municipality programme

AquaNova was awarded CES 21/2025 for the supply of chemical dosing and bioremediation material through June 2028.

Bring us the operating condition, not a polished brief.

H₂S readings, sludge handling pressure, daily flow, the existing process and the target you need to reach are enough to start a useful technical conversation.
