This article was prepared to introduce a new natural purification system designed by us. The model is theoretic. Ways to use the purified water for agricultural purposes have also been sought. For this purpose, we call the ‘Ecological Ladder Model (EMM)’ was done. The model can be revised in line with the results obtained from the application. It is estimated that it can also be applied to other water sources suffering from drought problems. The general features of the model are as follows: The EMM model; is an ecological treatment system that imitates nature. The treatment period and the area of use for treatment are longer than other systems, and vary according to the flow rate of the water; however, it is an environmentally friendly system. The system; has 2 parts, one large (main unit) and one small (side unit). While the main unit is being cleaned, the side unit can be put into operation and run for a few days. The top of the system is open and swamp mud, filters, etc. can be changed with construction equipment. Since the wastewater with a natural flow from top to bottom comes to the lake by filtering under the effect of the slope, it will be purified and purified like a strainer in peatlands. For this, the topography of the land should have a slope of approximately 15-30%. Wastewater can be purified and released into the lake or used for agricultural purposes. Purification consists of 3 steps: In the first stage, disease-causing microorganisms will be destroyed (with ozone/essential oil plants), In the second stage, the chemical and physical properties of the water such as pH, hardness, O2 will be made suitable (with claystone, marble dust, lime and gypsum rocks, etc.), In the third stage, there is an artificial wetland created from plants determined for the purpose from the aquatic flora of the area and the water will be purified by giving it to the plants, the water filtered from here will be tested with live indicators to see if it is drinkable and the purified water will be delivered to the lake or to the agricultural areas to be used. All of these features have been concretized with a technical drawing and turned into a visual plan. The disposal of the treatment sludge can be made into a valuable fertilizer by feeding it to Red California worms (Eisenia fetida). Burdur is the most important province in worm compost production. It also has very important experiences in agriculture and animal husbandry.
