Introducing MBBR …
- A fixed film process
- Provides robust and reliable wastewater treatment
- Allows higher volumetric loading than trickling filters and SAFs
- Developed in 1990s
MBBR is an advanced wastewater treatment process (typically used for secondary and tertiary stages of biological treatment)
The process uses suspended buoyant media, usually made of PP or HDPE with density close to water density (to allow the media to mix with the wastewater)
The plastic media is kept in suspension with mechanical or aeration systems.
