Welcome to our virtual tour of the Hyperion Treatment Plant. This is the next best thing to taking a live tour at the plant. We hope that you will come out and see us in person. Please call 310-648-5856 to make arrangements.

Sewage contains mostly water and solids. You know what those are. As you go through the tour, notice that many of the treatment processes at the plant are designed to separate solids from water. This must take place so that when the wastewater is completely treated it is clean enough to be pumped into Santa Monica Bay. The solids have value - they are reused as an energy resource and soil amendment-fertilizer.
