"treat your waste water to a Scarab system"

Scarab and the Dung beetle


At Scarab Water, we draw inspiration from one of nature's most diligent and efficient recyclers: the dung beetle. Much like the dung beetle, which tirelessly processes waste to sustain ecosystems, Scarab Water is dedicated to transforming domestic wastewater into a resource for a cleaner and healthier environment.
Founded in 2000 by Steve Nicol and his late father, Gordon, Scarab Water has been at the forefront of providing innovative sewage treatment solutions across South Africa, Africa, and Australia. Our package plants ensure that wastewater is treated effectively, mirroring the natural recycling process of the dung beetle, and contributing to a sustainable future for our planet.

Green & Unique

Scarab is the only known domestic wastewater system that has achieved compliance (general standards) within seven working days. Water quality is clear and odourless, and great for garden irrigation, dust suppression, water features and re-flushing toilets.

These irrigated areas remain green the whole year through. Our systems will add environmental value to your property.  Recycle your wastewater and benefit.

Easy to Maintain

Our domestic sewage treatment plants require no shut down to service and repair aeration equipment. There are no moving / serviceable parts in the bioreactors. Due to the highly effective aeration system, the bottom of the tank is constantly 'swept' and from this point, de-sludging is an easy task. Many other systems will choke up, and often would need to be replaced - giving a service life of less than 5 years. Provided the system is shielded from the sun, a our system could last 25+ years.
Who you choose to supply you a rugged, reliable, tested and endorsed, multiple award winning, internationally recognized, passionately crafted, eco-friendly sewage treatment package plant, is your choice.

Simply Compliant

Even though Scarab package plants requires no post-treatment clarifier, it still achieves compliance. This is achieved by incorporating our unique aeration design that offers an extended bubble path-length, so that oxygen stays in the water for much longer. This means that our aeration is super efficient, allowing the biological system more time to consume the "food" in the water, without being deprived of oxygen. In many cases, other systems can only offer standard aeration i.e  from bottom to the top water level, and should increased aeration be required, the added bubbles create excessive turbulence. The biological process becomes unsettled and water quality deteriorates.  We can increase aeration without added turbulence.
