At earthTek, we specialize in designing commercial and municipal wastewater treatment facilities that are tailored to each client’s specific requirements. Our custom-designed plants, also known as “package plants,” are built to address the unique challenges and demands of each individual application. At earthTek we can help you unleash the power of custom-designed wastewater treatment plants for your public or private entity.
Municipal wastewater treatment requirements are diverse and multifaceted, influenced by a range of factors including the size of the population, the extent of industrial activities, the projected flow rate of wastewater, and the specific environmental regulations that apply.
Each municipality presents a unique set of challenges, from managing high volumes of domestic sewage, to treating industrial effluents that may contain hazardous substances. The effectiveness of a wastewater treatment solution hinges on its ability to be precisely tailored to address these variable demands. earthTek’s expertise lies in recognizing and responding to these distinct requirements, working hand-in-hand with municipal clients to design wastewater treatment solutions that not only meet, but exceed their specific needs.
earthTek began as a consulting engineering firm in 1989 with founder Kevin Chaffee, a former city engineer. Our practice included water purification, wastewater treatment and stormwater, as well as streets, and land surveying. Over time we moved our speciality to wastewater treatment projects for municipalities, residential subdivisions, and commercial projects.
These projects led us to develop and patent new treatment processes that performed better, were more efficient to build, simpler to operate, and more economical to maintain.
We found that we enjoyed both designing projects, as well as building them, resulting in a sense of accomplishment. We utilize our talents as engineers to develop better wastewater treatment solutions for private and public entities.
At earthTek, we understand that the effectiveness of a wastewater treatment plant hinges on its alignment with the specific needs and challenges of the application, which led us to offering custom-designed wastewater treatment solutions.
Our most advanced and innovative treatment process, featuring sequencing batch reactor treatment technology. The process utilizes the activated sludge treatment process, and has the ability to meet the most stringent of effluent requirements.
Our most simple and versatile treatment process, which utilizes attached growth treatment technology. The AMBR Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor has the ability to adapt to variable flows, and excels in high-strength applications.
Our PUP TANK Collection System is a cost-effective method for transporting wastewater to a treatment facility. Featuring primary treatment for the removal of solids and other matter, which allows smaller pumps and piping, reducing your cost.
Each process has been developed to address distinct wastewater treatment challenges, ensuring that we can tailor a solution that precisely matches the operational demands and environmental goals of your project.

Harvest Caye Wastewater Treatment Plant Supervisor
“I love the plant! It is easy to operate once you have been properly trained, which they come to your plant to do. The latest results average 5 mg/l BOD, 8 mg/l TSS, 0.3 mg/l ammonia, 9.1 mg/l DO, and pH 7.5. Plus, Kevin and his staff are always readily available to ask any questions. Being able to operate the plant from your home or anywhere, for that matter, is a plus too.”

“I feel very confident in our SBR system. Our effluent is very clear and our laboratory tested TSS at 5 ppm. We are using our effluent water to irrigate our plants with no odor or solids.”
Facilities Manager
“I operate three different Class 1 plants, and this plant works great. I tell everyone that all Class 1 plants in the state should be this type of plant.”

Our MBBR plant works great and is very simple to operate. The design modeling the earthTek team did was SPOT ON when we got the operation up and running. The MBBR has been very robust to load fluctuations, and we are now able to run Non-Detect Ammonia, even in the winter.
Kopp Turkey, Inc.
The plants have been operating very well – within permit requirements. The adjustments that you have recommended have cleared up many of the issues we were having. Thank you again for your continued willingness to provide us with counsel and assistance.
