German term

Biologische Kleinkläranlagen in dezentralen Lagen

German to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering water engineering
Es handelt sich um biologische Klär-Tanks bei Häusern.

"Septic tanks" scheint hier nicht richtig zu sein, da dies nach meinen Recherchen Dreikammerfaulsysteme mit anaerober Reinigung sind.
Gibt es "biological small domestic waste water treatment plants"?

Selected

small-scale biological sewage treatment systems ...

... in distributed locations

would be my suggestion

(English needs to put the "small" before the "biological")

I try to avoid "plant" for small-scale things, as it conjures up images of something big and industrial - "system" or "unit" sometimes works better.
