Waterfirst specializes in waste water treatment Waste water being sewage water, grey water, car wash bay water and aquaculture waste water. This waste water goes through a series of treatment stages before it can be reused. The stages of treatment, from anaerobic through to aerobic are all biological processes. Being biological we are dealing with living organisms which require specific environmental conditions to survive and thrive. Waterfirst ensues optimum conditions for these complex biological processes at all times through innovative aeration and circulation methods. These methods are carried out in all the bioreactors, (aerobic stages), optimizing the bioremediation of waste water. Waterfirst makes sure that the natural processes taking place in the reactors stay complex and the rest of the system stays as simple and robust as possible so that maintenance of the treatment plants are kept to a minimum. Waterfirst’s waste water treatment plants can be installed above ground or partially submerged and are also modular so that they can be increased in size when necessary.

The plant is native to Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru and was widely grown in South Africa beginning in the 19th century. It is unrelated to true gooseberries of the genus  Ribes  (family Grossulariaceae). Cape gooseberries are bittersweet, slightly tart, and quite juicy. They get their name from the paper-thin cape that covers and protects the fruit inside until it ripens. The casing is green at first, fading to a light brown as the fruit ripens. If kept inside its casing, a Cape Gooseberry can keep for up to 45 days Tasting note: Sweet-tart & pineappley Hales Best Spanspek has been a favourite melon of gardeners for over 100 years. The relatively small melons typically weigh 2.5kg or more, growing off plants that can stretch to a width of 1.5m. The fruit itself is noted for its succulence and sweetness. Tasting note: Aromatic & fleshy Sugar Baby Watermelon is a stunning, superbly sweet, small watermelon that packs an intense sweet punch. A great little producer for the home garden or gardener that has limited space. This heirloom watermelon was introduced in 1956 and has been earning fans ever since. This small, round melon is called an icebox type because it is petite enough to fit in the fridge and grows on compact vines. This widely adapted heirloom variety is solid, dark green on the outside with a bright red, firm and fine-grained flesh that is super sweet. Watermelon contains high levels of healthy antioxidants, making Sugar Baby a great sweet way to pack in good nutrition.
