Who we are

Kenyan environmental engineers solving Africa's wastewater challenge

Aquamet Sanitation Ltd is a Kenyan environmental engineering company specialising in decentralised wastewater treatment. Our solutions combine biological and mechanical treatment technologies to safely treat black and grey water for environmental discharge or reuse in irrigation, landscaping, toilet flushing and other non-potable applications.

With more than six years in the field, an experienced technical team and a track record of hundreds of successful installations, we deliver systems that cut water and sewer costs, need little maintenance and last for decades — while protecting the environment they sit in.

Kitchens & canteens

Grease Interceptors

Gravity-fed units that trap fats, oils and grease (FOG) from kitchens, sinks and basins — preventing blockages, protecting sewer infrastructure and keeping you compliant with local regulations.

Effluent filter component
Polishing stage

Effluent Filters

Final-stage filtration that removes suspended solids before discharge or reuse, improving effluent quality and protecting downstream soak pits, drip lines and irrigation systems from clogging.

Bioreactor tank for secondary treatment
Secondary treatment

Bioreactors

Aerated bioreactors for secondary wastewater treatment, driving down organic load (BOD/COD) to produce a clear, low-odour effluent suitable for reuse or safe environmental discharge.

SBR wastewater treatment plant chambers
Residential to community

SBR Treatment Plants

Sequencing Batch Reactor plants that perform every treatment stage in one tank on a timed cycle. Ideal where a soak pit won't work — swampy ground or low-permeability soils — delivering odour-free water for irrigation and toilet flushing.

Water reuse

Recycling & Reuse Systems

Complete treatment-and-recycling trains that turn wastewater into a reliable non-potable supply for landscaping, toilet flushing and washdown — cutting fresh-water demand and utility bills.
