The compressor doesn't move anything: it just pumps bubbles through an intermediary chamber that "finishes" a clearer output which then drains to an appropriately-smaller leach field.

It appears to be a combination of aerobic and the conventional anaerobic systems. Except for seasonal dwellings, it appears to be a relatively high-maintenance system with the added necessity of constant electricity.

There are several aerobic systems at my Florida location, both above ground and below ground. They are noisy outside.

If you install one on an island, be sure to have it placed downwind.
