What is MBBR process?
The Ecologix MBBR is a highly effective biological treatment process based on a combination of conventional activated sludge process and biofilm media. The MBBR process utilizes floating High Capacity MicroOrganism BioChips media within the aeration and anoxic tanks.
What is MBBR used for?
Moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) is a biological technology used for wastewater treatment process suitable for municipal and industrial application. Another common name is moving bed film reactor. It was invented in the 1980s. MBBR offer an economical solution for wastewater treatment.
What does MBBR remove?
The lagoon MBBR, or moving bed biofilm reactor, is a proven technology for the removal of lagoon ammonia through biological nitrification.
What is the difference between MBBR and IFAS?
The difference between IFAS and MBBR is that in the IFAS system, the activated sludge from the sludge recirculation is additionally used, which means that the combination of activated sludge and carrier-fixed biofilms is used in the same reaction tank volume. Figure 1. Moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) technology.
What is MBBR in wastewater?
The Aqua MSBR® modified sequencing batch reactor combines the advantages of sequencing batch reactor technology with a traditional flow-through activated sludge process to produce a low cost, compact and continuous flow system.
What is the difference between MBBR and MBR?
MBR can effectively improve sludge load, while MBBR belongs to biofilm process, both of which have good effect on organic pollutant treatment, including COD, BOD and ammonia nitrogen. MBR has obvious effects in treating SS, but it is a problem that it is easy to block the membrane.
What is difference between MBBR and MBR?
What type of MBBR tank is used for denitrification?
For denitrification, anoxic MBBR tanks are used. The anoxic tank is similar to aerobic MBBR tanks except that no oxygen is supplied. The tank contains no diffusers and the media is kept in suspension in the reactor through submersible mixers. Other features are the same as in the aerobic reactor although the design may be slightly different.
What is MBBR technology?
Norwegian researchers developed MBBR technology in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The goal of MBBR was to compensate for some of the issues that characterize other biological wastewater treatment methods, and it did so effectively.
What is an MBBR aeration tank?
An MBBR aeration tank can effectively treat the same amount of water as a much larger tank used for a more traditional process. Primarily, it offers this benefit due to the maximized surface area the media provide for biofilm growth.
How does influent enter the MBBR system?
Influent enters this basin for treatment, and may enter a second basin for further MBBR processing or for another type of water treatment process. MBBR aeration tanks are open at the top, exposing the water to the open air, which makes this an aerobic process of filtration.
