Abstract
Disclosed embodiments relate to a water treatment unit for use in a water treatment system. In some embodiments, the water treatment unit may comprise a hollow unit forming an interior volume, a first divider and a second divider, wherein the first divider and the second divider may divide the interior volume into a first compartment, a second compartment, a third compartment and a fourth compartment, an aeration grid, wherein the aeration grid may release oxygen into the interior volume, an aeration grid pipe, wherein the aeration grid pipe may supply oxygen to the aeration grid, and an air lift system, wherein the air lift system may recirculate water within the water treatment system.
