MBBR Bio Filter Media - a Carrier Used to Improve Sewage Treatment Efficiency
Bio-Carrier Media Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor technology is a straightforward flow through design with no sludge recycling or backwashing is necessary. The media are contained within the vessel(s) and mixing energy is applied via coarse bubble aeration, typically for BOD/COD reduction. If de-nitrification is needed, mechanical agitation will be applied in place of aeration creating the necessary anoxic environment. Bio-Carrier Moving Bed BioReactor is a flexible biological platform with easy future expansion—just add media.
Near the top of the tank, a stainless-steel sieve allows water to exit the reactor while preventing the bio-media from escaping. The bacteria digest organics in the waste stream and convert soluble material into biomass that can be removed downstream. DAF system, placed downstream of the MBBR tank is a compact solution for the separation of the biomass and solids from the wastewater.


For the denitrification applications, the same bio-media is employed in an anoxic environment. In place of blower air, we use mechanical mixing to create an anoxic environment that facilitates better media mixing and fluidization.
In industrial applications, we can pair our EQ, MBBR systems, dissolved air flotation technology and sludge dewatering system as an integrated solution, providing our customers with a turnkey solution for advanced wastewater treatment.
unicipal and industrial wastewater treatment. The technology can be designed to address biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) removal, as well as nitrification and denitrification treatments. This MBBR biological system has one of the smallest footprints in the industry while tolerating load swings and temporary load depravation.
