Official Announcement: Hycura, Biological Wastewater Treatment Website Launch



It is with great pleasure that we are announcing the official launch of the Hycura website. Based on 60 years of research and studies we have been able to create a powerful all natural way to clean any organic wastewater. Our purpose and mission is to assist people everywhere to access clean water and properly treat and manage wastewater.

Water is the most important resource in the world and too many people are dying each day because of contaminated water. Every 21 seconds a child dies because of water related disease. There are droughts and water shortages throughout the first world countries where the proper use of treated wastewater can improve water consumption and minimize these major issues. Over 80% of the world’s wastewater remains untreated.

As a people we need to use the technology at hand and work together to solve the world’s biggest problem of polluted water. Hycura has set its sights on improving this situation and is working hard on the implementation of current technology while also completing new research and development to treat emerging contaminates that are starting to plague even developed countries.

Today along with the launch of our new website we are launching our Sp – Septic Tank Treatment which is specially targeted for use in any residential or commercial septic tank or cesspool. This enhanced product has a higher microbe and enzyme count and increased buffer content to neutralize the environment allowing the microbes entering the system to get to work quicker.

The proprietary formula is also focused on protein and fats which are generally higher in wastewater found in septic tanks. With the use of Sp - Septic Tank Treatment you will be able to digest built up sludge, remove clogs, free up slow or blocked pipes and reduce strong odors all the while cleaning the residual wastewater to environmentally safe standards, removing all pathogenic bacteria.

If you own a septic system then you have probably experienced or felt …

Septic Tank Cleaning – What to do, and What not to do!

Cleaning and maintaining the septic tank system is an important part of preserving the overall plumbing system. It is vital since cleaning the tank will keep the system from clogging and also increase the life of the piping in the house. Because the septic system and piping within the house are very expensive, it is important to use the right procedures for cleaning the septic system otherwise it will fail and you will have to bear the hefty cost of repairing it.


What to do

Below are a number of tips on how to best clean and maintain a septic system:

Septic Tank Treatment – “Septic Safe Additives”

‘Septic Safe Additives’ like Hycura Sp – Septic Tank Treatment are an inexpensive way to stay on top of your septic tank maintenance. Since the most common issues with septic tanks are due to sludge build up or excessive use of water, having a free flowing system free of clogs, blockages and all organic solids will prolong the life of any septic system. Not only will it clean and restore septic systems to original operating capacity but will also decrease the strong odor normally associated with sewage systems. Lastly using an additive like Sp – Septic Tank Treatment will further remove harmful pathogens that can be harmful in the waterways and spread disease.

Plumbing Inspection

A very wise approach is to hire a plumber to do a thorough examination of the plumbing system. He will examine all mechanisms and parts of the plumbing system to recognize and repair any problems. Problems can include cracked pipes, worn, leaking or damaged mechanisms and even problems with the plumbing fittings such as the hot water tank, faucets, toilets, showerheads, and drains.

Drain Field Maintenance

It is vital that you keep your drain field strong and flood resistant. Eradicate any tree roots that are located on or beside the drain field. Turn away any water drainage systems from the drain field such as floor drains, roof drains and other water drainage channels that could generate excess water in the drain field.

Pumping the Septic Tank

Waste sludge can collect in the septic tank and ultimately disrupt the waste cleaning process, over time. It can lead the raw sewage to back up in the sewer line and even run into the home, which can be very messy and costly to repair. Traditionally and as a last resort you can hire a plumbing service to propel and pump out the septic tank for hundreds of dollars, and can take a considerable amount of time. This can be avoided with proper use of Hycura Sp – Septic Tank Treatment.

What not to do

  1. Never clean a septic tank without proper inspection.
  2. Never clean a septic tank when the area around it is flooded or the water level is high as it will destroy the tank and will render it useless.
  3. To prevent injury, the access lid(s) should only be removed by a licensed liquid leftover transporter. A septic tank contains gases that are lethal. Never climb into or enter a septic tank. 
  4. If someone does fall into a septic container, make sure not to go in the tank to try to save them - call emergency rescue

Follow these basic rules and you will be safe to work and clean the septic tank and will be safe from any injuries.

Clean Water for Brazil

I bet you are of the same thought as me. It's the 21st centery and most people should have clean water right? Think again. There was a recent study done in Brazil stating that more than half the people there are without clean water! 


Crazy hey ;( Well it gets worse. Over 400,000 are hospitalized every year due to untreated water. 

Check out the article below.

Types of Septic Tank Systems - Which one is right for you?

Hycura is renowned for their high-grade, effective, and user-friendly septic system cleaning agents. The legendary performances of their many products have helped make Hycura one of the most sought-after companies in the industry, for commercial and residential septic system maintenance alike. Here, the famously environmentally-conscious company helps explain the difference between several types of septic systems. This is information that every home and commercial property owner should know!


For the majority of buildings in the US and Canada, there are three main types of “onsite” systems:

Standard Gravity Systems
Depending on the natural flow of the terrain surrounding a building, one may be able to install a standard gravity system. As the name implies, this septic system relies on the natural pull of gravity to perform the majority of its work. The flow of waste and waste water into this particular model pushes out clear effluent (liquid waste or sewage, discharged into a river or the sea) at its outlet. Placing a filter on the tank’s outlet protects the system’s drain field from various particles that may clog and/or damage it as a result of the flow. 
This system is commonly found, and highly important to maintain.

Standard Pumping Systems
When the system’s drain field is not downhill from the septic tank, a pumping device is put into use. This pump is operated by a control panel that may activate it (a) based on need, (b) when the tank’s effluent reaches a particular level, and (c) on a timed schedule. A notable advantage of this model? It “delivers wastewater to the drain field in small, uniform doses throughout the day,” which contributes favorably to the future growth of treatment organisms

Advanced Treatment Systems
Certain sites, lots, or buildings may not be eligible for the “standard” systems described above. A building may be deemed unsuitable for a variety of reasons; often, a site is generally not equipped with a conventionally-sized drain field, though poor soils on the lot and “environmentally-sensitive areas” surrounding the building can all be equally responsible. When this is the case, a specialized treatment system is needed. Alternately known as “advanced” or “secondary” systems, a specialized model and its treatment organisms require a sizable amount of oxygen to perform their work. In older, municipal, and less energy-efficient systems, this influx of oxygen is supplied by “blowers” and other machinery continuously “aerate[ing] the liquid effluent.” Fortunately, a more efficient and much more stable option was developed, wherein the effluent is lightly “trickled over a bed of porous material” known as a media filter.

The main issue with all septic tank systems is the need to digest and liquefy the accumulated bio solids or sludge. Each system without proper treatment will need to be ‘pumped’ at a high cost for the manual removal or will experience partial or complete septic failure.

For assistance treating, cleaning, and repairing any one of these septic systems, or with questions about the system on any existing property, simply contact Hycura today. www.Hycura.com

Do I need to pump my Septic Tank or Cesspool?

First it is important to understand the function of a septic tank or cesspool. In most cases the holding cell that collects the solids will gradually allow the liquids to flow out of the system into the drainage field. The remaining solids are built up and normally take a considerable amount of time to digest. This is why many industry professionals and homeowners pump out their holding tanks, the solids do not digest and need to be manually removed. 

Because of the use of household chemicals, detergents and anti-bacterial products that are widely used in most households, digestion of organic solids and sludge is impeded or even completely stopped. Here in lies the biggest problem for any septic tanks and cesspools alike. There is not proper or sufficient amount of digestion of solids which leads to build up within the tanks and leads to further problems in the leaching and drainage fields. Without proper septic tank maintenance or use of Hycura Sp - Septic Tank Treatment, these solids will continue to build up and eventually destroy the whole system.

It is for this reason that industry professionals suggest to pump out a system frequently which is very costly to the homeowner but not as costly as a installing a new septic or cesspool system. As suggested above there is a better way! You can avoid both expenses pumping of the septic system and the potential need to replace the entire system. When properly used Hycura Sp - Septic Tank Treatment can digest sludge thereby reducing the volume of built up sludge and restore any septic system where there will be no need for manual removal of sludge and will increase the life of the system. 


How often should I pump? How do I do pump the tank?


Pumping a septic tank or cesspool within the industry is quite normal as there is typically no way to properly and fully digest the organic solids built up in the holding tanks. There are many websites and septic tank service companies that suggest or even enforce a specific septic tank pumping schedule for every single onsite wastewater treatment system with or without a drainage field. Septic tank care and cleaning is very important to the environment and to the pocket book of each owner. Proper care and maintenance is needed to insure a long life and proper treatment of wastewater. 

There is no schedule or need to pump a septic or cesspool system if properly managed and the use of Hycura Sp - Septic Tank or Cesspool Treatment is applied. This is possible due to the ability of strong and industrial designed microbes and enzymes that speed up the digestion of all soft organic solids held within the holding tanks. 

My system does not have a drainage field, what am I supposed to do?



There are different septic or cesspool systems that do not have a drainage field and is essentially just a large holding tank for both solids and liquids. These systems without a drainage field must be pumped without exception. If you own a septic tank or cesspool without a drainage field you will need to pump out your sewage depending on the usage of water and the volume of waste. There is no way around these systems, they must be pumped. For all other systems with a drainage field or rockpit there is other options. If your system has a drainage field then we guarantee that after proper use of Hycura Sp - Septic Tank Treatment you will never have to pump your septic or cesspool holding tanks again.

Fun facts about water and wastewater!

In our industrial world it is important to understand how we treat and take care of our environment. Most importantly is how we use water, our most important and precious resource. 


Here are some fun facts about water and wastewater. Makes you think again about how and how much water we use! (These fun facts are re-posted from its orginial post by Tatsuya Nakagwa the VP of Marketing and co-founder of Castagra Products. http://www.castagra.com/2014/02/fun-facts-about-water-and-wastewater/)

1. A short 5-minute shower uses between 25 – 50 gallons of water. That’s a lot of water. That’s comparable to washing a load of clothes.

2. To get one inch of water from snow, you need to melt bout 10 inches of snow first.

3. It takes 10 to 15 gallons of water to wash dishes by hand, but ONLY nine to 12 gallons of water are used in a dishwater.

4. In the United States alone, about 22,500 square miles of toilet paper get used annually, which is about the same area covered by the Central Valley in California.

5. To make one gallon of milk, a cow must drink four gallons of water.

6. About 50 glasses of water are used to grow enough oranges to make one glass of orange juice.

7. Humans can only live a few days without water, but a month without food.

8. About two-thirds of the water we use at home occurs in our bathroom.

9. Watermelons are made up of 93 percent water, tomatoes are made up of 90 percent water, and elephants are made up of 70 percent water.

10. About $10 million is spent annually on chemicals to make toilets in the United States smell better.

11. In older toilets, three gallons of clean water gets used with every flush. But in newer toilets, as little as one gallon gets flushed.

12. Raindrops fall to Earth at speeds of up to 22 miles per hour, which is almost as fast as human runners, who max out at a speed of 23.4 miles per hour.

13. Water regulates the Earth’s temperature. It also regulates the temperature of the human body.

14. It takes 11 gallons of water to produce one slice of bread.

15. About 97% of the Earth’s water is undrinkable. And another two percent is tied up in glaciers and ice caps. And the remaining one percent is left for our own needs.

If only 3% of the Earth's water is drinkable, we better find out better ways to treat, and re-use water instead of using that precious water for irrigation.
