Abstract

A wastewater absorption field reclamation and maintenance system, wherein effluent (wastewater) is oxygenated such that BOD is not reduced in the effluent, the oxygenated effluent being delivered to the absorption field. As the oxygenated effluent flows to the absorption field, the enhanced oxygen enables aerobic decomposition of organic matter which has reduced the infiltrative capacity of the absorption field.
