Marine Sanitation is a section for information on equipment and methods adopted by marinas and ports in the treatment and disposal of sewage and waste products.![]()

The heavy-duty Dockside Discharge Unit pumps sewerage directly from a vessel into the sewer in only three minutes, followed by a complete flush and rinse for clean, safe disposal. The Portable Toilet Emptying Unit caters for the needs of light recreational vessels and is also suitable for use caravan parks and popular camping sites. It allows for quick and easy disposal of waste from a portable toilet, and the three varying models include rinse facilities for portable toilet tanks and complete internal cleaning facilities for the unit after each use.
Director of Marine Sanitation, John Collier believes that demand for these products will only continue to grow as the marine industry becomes more environmentally astute. "As a marina operator, providing an efficient, effective, and easy-to-use sewerage disposal service demonstrates a commitment to social and environmental responsibility, a quality that is increasingly sought out in today's society." "The units, available in either manual or token operation, feature an easy to maintain wash down facility to protect the amenity of users, and backflow protection to prevention any contamination to the clean water supply."
What sets these products apart from the competition is the quality of fittings and practical design. The Dockside Discharge Units use a helical rotor pump, as opposed to the widely used diaphragm pump. This allows a greater amount of sewerage to be pumped over a greater distance, a valuable benefit for a busy marina. Each unit is housed in a heavy duty marine grade 316 Stainless Steel cabinet with an attractive fine brushed finish and is light enough to enable installation on a floating marina. "I am confident that these high quality Australian made products will rival those currently available and all are covered by a 12 month warranty and come with specialist advice on installation, use and maintenance."
