Top Reasons to Choose MBBR Media

Moving bed bio filter media is an enhanced version of Fixed Film Bio Reactor like SAFF (Surface Area Fixed Filmed Technology (SAFF) or else Rotating Bio Reactor (RBC), with a discrepancy of MBBR carrier media is free floating in the Sewage or else Effluent.  MBBR technology uses thousands of polyethylene biofilm carriers operating in varied motion within an sparkling wastewater treatment basin.

MBBR Media

A MBBR media embraces of a tank with inundated but buoyant plastic (usually HDPE, polyethylene or polypropylene) media having precise gravity less than 1.0. The large surface area of the plastics offer plentiful surface for bacterial growth! Biomass grows on the surface as a thin film whose thickness typically varies between fifty to three hundred microns. Each individual bio carrier increases efficiency through offering protected surface area to support the expansion of heterotrophic as well as autotrophic bacteria within its cells. It is this high-density population of bacteria that accomplishes high-rate biodegradation within the system, while also offering procedure dependability as well as ease of operation. Medium or else coarse bubble diffusers consistently placed at the bottom of the reactor maintains dissolved oxygen (DO) absorption of > 2.5-3 mg/L for BOD elimination. Still higher DO concentrations are maintained for nitrification. To preserve the media flowing out of the tank, screens are placed on the downstream walls. A clarifier or a DAF is positioned downstream of the MBBR tank to divide the biomass as well as the solids from the wastewater. No sludge recycle is requisite for this procedure.
