Colloides moving bed bioreactor system provides a highly effective treatment solution, using biofilm to provide organic carbon removal and nitrification / de-nitrification where necessary.
The process forms a highly reliable and robust solution for wastewater treatment. Biofilm carriers are used in the treatment tanks on which the biomass grows. Aeration then supplies the energy to disperse the carriers.
Applications:
• Upgrading of existing conventional activated sludge plants in both industrial and municipal wastewater treatment.
• New municipal and industrial plants as either full or partial treatment.
• New or upgraded leachate treatment plants.
• Package wastewater treatment plants.
MBBR can be added to current systems, or designed and constructed as a stand-alone treatment plant.
Colloides MBBR process can be used in a variety of configurations (standard MBBR, IFAS BNR etc) to achieve the necessary treatment. With standard MBBR, wastewater is treated only with carriers: no suspended biomass is involved. This leaves a very simple process involving a once-through flow, no recycle for carbonaceous BOD removal, followed by solids removal. More specialised processes with internal recycles are used for nutrient removal. IFAS processes use both carriers and suspended biomass to carry out the treatment.
Key benefits:
• Very good effluent quality (20BOD/30SS/ammonia).
• Low capital cost.
• Simple, robust design.
• Energy efficient.
• Ease of installation and operation.
• Capacity of existing works can be quickly and easily increased.
• Low operating cost.
• Small footprint for new works.
• Upgrade of existing works-simultaneously increase capacity and improve effluent quality.
