Ecocycle for Churches: St Veronica Church, Syokimau

The Challenge
Syokimau’s lack of sewer lines creates persistent wastewater management challenges for the community. Soil conditions render traditional soak pits and biodigesters ineffective, leaving frequent and costly exhauster services as the only alternative.

For this growing church, outdated pit latrines presented multiple problems:

  • Rapid filling requiring constant maintenance
  • Persistent odor issues
  • Incompatibility with their modernisation and expansion plans


The Solution
In 2022, the church embraced sustainability by installing the Ecocycle wastewater treatment system, transforming their sanitation infrastructure while aligning with their going-green vision.

Key system benefits:

  • 6,000 litres recycled daily — serving 3,260+ congregants and staff
  • Space-efficient design — requires only 51.1m² (0.013 acres)
  • Sustainable water reuse — treated water nourishes church grounds through irrigation


The Ecocycle Advantage

  • Eliminated exhauster costs — saving thousands in annual maintenance
  • Odor-free operation
  • Future-proof sanitation — supports continued church growth and expansion
  • Environmental leadership — demonstrates practical creation care to the community


By adopting Ecocycle, the church achieved cost savings, improved sanitation, and environmental responsibility.
