Why choose an effluent bladder tank?

 

The demand for effluent bladder tanks has been continuously increasing, and with increased compliance measures, uncertain weather, and safety concerns it’s not hard to see why!

 

  • Additional Sump Storage - if you have a pumping system with a sump that handles most of the effluent storage, but need additional storage to handle rainy periods, or just to tick the box for council compliance, a bladder tank could be the solution.

  • Retention of Nitrogen Content - Nitrogen is a valuable fertiliser and this is one way to maximise the free stuff you've already got. Effluent stored in bladder tanks is more nutrient rich since it is not getting diluted by rainwater or evaporated into the atmosphere.

  • Reduce Your Workload - if you're in a high rainfall area or have high water tables you'll know the pain of large fluctuations in effluent storage levels due to rain. Of course after heavy rainfall, you can't spread it until the ground dries up, leaving even more effluent to manage. Effluent bladders don't have this problem. Being closed storage the effluent is not getting the rainwater added to it, leaving a lot less to manage.

  • Aesthetics - prefer not to see a big effluent pond when you look out the window? Bladder tanks can often be situated to blend into the landscape, making them less obvious, and they have much less odour.

  • Cost & Tax Advantages - bladder tanks between 300-500mᶾ hit the sweet spot when it comes to value, costing no more than installing a pond while having all the benefits of closed storage. What’s more, tax wise bladder tanks depreciate on your books, so after around 5 years you can write them off.

  • Multi-Location Storage -  got large or multiple farms? Increase your spreading efficiency by storing effluent in multiple locations. Slurry tankers can fill up from each location rather than needing to travel long distances to re-fill the tank and back again to spread around outer paddocks. It also means less disruption to cow flow and other farming operations.

Thoroughly stirring effluent in any type of synthetic lined storage is vital.

        We can confidently say Nevada bladder tanks have one of the highest strength fabrics in the world. They have a unique rip-stop reinforcing structure. They have an extremely high torsional strength along with being the most flexible bladder tank. Nevada bladder tanks are designed for effluent and have an anti-fungal and anti-UV coatings. Corners of the bladder tank have an additional 4-pad reinforced corner plates.

        We offer our customers a 10-year manufacturer’s warranty on all our bladder tanks from date of manufacture.

        Yes, our effluent bladder tanks can be moved after installation. They’re designed to be somewhat portable and flexible, allowing for relocation if necessary.

        Our bladder tanks are made to withstand tough conditions and would only burst by a sharp object or by being filled past the bladder tank’s limits. Regular inspections and proper usage according to manufacturer guidelines can minimize this risk. Nevada supply with all bladder tank a colour gauge to indicate capacity level. (Refer to question 4 for more details).

        Composite textile membranes are engineered with a PES (Polyester) woven reinforcement that delivers unparalleled dimensional stability and outstanding resistance. This makes them very flexible.

        Yes, when installing an effluent bladder tank in New Zealand, be aware of the following guidelines you may encounter:

        • Local Regulations: Comply with local council and environmental regulations.
        • Site Preparation: Ensure the site is flat, stable, and well-drained.
        • Distance Requirements: Maintain required distances from wells, water bodies, property boundaries and 45 metres from Dairy parlour.
        • Manufacturer Guidelines: Follow the installation instructions provided by the manufacturer.

        Our installation process for bladder tanks typically takes a few hours to a couple of days, depending on the tank size, site preparation, and specific installation requirements. Nevada provides a complete checklist for site preparation prior to Nevada’s install team arriving on site. Setting up the bladder tank is normally completed within a day.

        To determine the size of the bladder tank you need, consider your water usage, application (residential, commercial, industrial), available space, and regulatory requirements. Talk to our dairy effluent specialists for specific recommendations based on these factors as they can provide you with an approved effluent storage calculator.

        Our bladder tanks are built for water and dairy effluent/manure use.

        Nevada recommends not gravity feeding effluent into the bladder.

        It is imperative to have a good stone trap before any effluent storage and maintain it. However, if stones, sand and grit get into the bladder it’s very important to have a high capacity effluent mixer pump.
