MBBR SYSTEM
The MBBR system consists of an activated sludge aeration system where the sludge is collected on recycled plastic carriers (MBBR MEDIA). These carriers have an internal large surface for optimal contact water, air, and bacteria.
PURPOSE OF MBBR MEDIA
A bed of MBBR media generally consists of thousands of tiny pieces that suspend themselves throughout s wastewater treatment tank, typically taking up about 50 to 70% of the available space. Their design makes them optimal for hosting beneficial bacteria and promoting their growth.
The media are so effective because their design gives them a tremendous amount of surface area for beneficial microorganisms to settle on, so they help increase the number of bacteria available to digest waste.
In an aeration tank, the tiny MBBR pieces disperse throughout the wastewater and their surface area provides a hospitable environment for microorganism growth. The biofilm that grows on the media decomposes the waste in the tank.
