MBBR & MBR Water filtration profiles for optimal water treatment

Water is the most essential of all fundamental needs of human life. It is one of the most vital components that sustain life on earth. Although more than 70% of the earth’s surface is covered by water, less than 1% is suitable for consumption.

Due to rapid population growth, industrialisation, and agricultural innovations, there is an escalating demand for freshwater sources. The trend towards environmentally-friendly products is clearly visible in the water treatment sector. Countries adopt stringent regulatory measures for the reuse of water, directly affecting the standards for clean water.

The provision of quality water has emerged as a key challenge for developed countries and regions that lack direct access to freshwater sources.

MBBR system installations filter water by inserting large amounts of biomedia into the water tank. Small polyethylene or polypropylene carriers support the growth of bacteria, which biodegrades the waste in the water, resulting in a clean effluent.

Biofilm carriers are very effective cleaners of wastewater and sewage water. They are used worldwide in municipal wastewater systems and for cleaning in a wide range of industries. MBBR features are encouraging a number of new applications such as fish farming among others.

To fulfil emerging consumer needs, high-speed filtration membranes are needed for processing wastewater into clean water.
