<p>A portable waste container 54 containing a soil matrix 64 which uses reed bed technology to treat contaminated liquids. The container 54 has an inlet pipe 56 which accesses an inlet buffer bed through a hole 58 formed in a side wall 60. A gravel inlet buffer trench 66 extends from the inlet pipe 56 to the base. The container 54 and the gravel inlet buffer also has an intrusive layer 70 which extends further underneath the soil matrix 64. The inlet construction induces Artesian flow which causes the waste liquid to rise up through the soil matrix 64 thereby being treated by the reed bed before passing down to an outlet 68 under gravity where it exits the container.</p> |
