Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR)

Introduction of wastewater treatment by MBBR method

• Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor
• Adherent growth with mobile media
• Small plastic parts cause the growth of attached bacteria.

Steps of wastewater treatment package  by MBBR method

• Garbage to preserve MBBR media
• Balancing tank
• MBBR tank
• Sedimentation tank
• Chlorination tank
• Sludge digestion tank

Components of growth unit attached with MBBR mobile media

• CS structure with epoxy coating
• Small size garbage collector at the entrance
• Sludge pump
• Blower roots or side channel according to the size
• Fine Bubble Diffuser
• Chlorination package
• Media packing
• Automatic switchboard with emergency switch

Where is attached growth with moving media used?

• Wastewater treatment of hotels, restaurants and towns
• Wastewater of entertainment and sports centers
• Industrial wastewater treatment

Advantages of MBBR method in sanitary wastewater treatment

• Better removal of cyanide, formaldehyde and phenol
• High dilution ability and reduction of sedimentation pond load
• Increasing the settling power of the resulting materials
• Increasing the speed of the aeration process and, as a result, lower energy costs
• No need to return the activated sludge from the secondary clarifier to the aeration pond and the sufficiency of the stuck sludge
• Optimal use of small space
• Nitrification power
• No need for repairs and overhaul

The disadvantages of this process include the following:

• The need for more aeration and therefore a stronger blower
• Higher energy consumption than other methods
