Revolutionizing Wastewater Treatment with MBR Technology

The MBR membrane bio reactor is the latest technology in wastewater treatment. MBR systems provide superior water purification than the traditional activated sludge process. It combines membrane ultrafiltration. Unlike conventional methods, the MBR combines advanced membranes to replace secondary sedimentation tanks and sand filters. The space-efficient, easy operation with quality treated water that can be used on any other application is ensured by this breakthrough approach.

Oxymotec is happy to offer our latest MBR solutions customized for our customer’s special needs. Reinforced PVDF hollow fibre membranes are used by our systems for their reliability, durability and excellent filtration performance.

How MBR Technology Works

Whenever the biological treatment and membrane filtration are integrated or synergistically combined, reaching outstanding water quality, the result is an MBR membrane biological reactor. Here’s how the process works:

• Biological Treatment: Using activated sludge does not overcome these limitations. Biological treatment of wastewater is the treatment of the organic matter or the particles from it which is further broken down into smaller organic matter. First, it helps to get the nitrogen and phosphorus out of the water in anaerobic processes and aerobic processes.
• Membrane Filtration: The hollow fibre membranes treat the water. They are used to remove remaining solids, bacteria and viruses, making clean usable water.
• Effluent Discharge or Reuse: It is decontaminated water at very high-quality standards, good for reuse or safe environmental discharge.

The efficient, sustainable management of wastewater is ensured through this biological treatment combined with advanced filtration.

Types of MBR Configurations

1. Submerged/Internal Configuration

In this setup, membranes are submerged directly in the biological MBR Reactor. This design simplifies operation by integrating filtration within the treatment process. It is ideal for systems requiring compact footprints.

2. External Configuration

In this configuration, membranes are installed as a separate unit. An intermediate pump transfers wastewater from the bioreactor to the membrane system. This setup allows greater flexibility in design and maintenance.

Both configurations offer distinct advantages. It is customized to meet specific site and operational requirements.

MBR Membrane Bioreactors Benefits

MBR technology offers several key benefits. It makes it a preferred choice for wastewater treatment:

1. High-Quality Effluent: The combination of biological and membrane processes ensures treated water meets stringent reuse standards.
2. Space Efficiency: Replacing secondary sedimentation tanks with compact membranes significantly reduces system footprints.
3. Easy Operation: Automated controls simplify operation and maintenance.
4. Nitrogen and Phosphorus Removal: The more advanced treatment options help remove nutrients making it a better water quality.
5. Flexibility: Municipal, industrial, and decentralized wastewater treatment systems are suitable.

Applications of MBR Systems

MBR bioreactor technology is versatile and finds applications across various sectors:

1. Municipal Wastewater Treatment Systems

Cities and towns are using MBR systems for treating sewage. Given their compact design and high efficiency. They are ideal for urban spaces where space is at a premium.

2. Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant

MBR’s capacity to accept high organic loads and variable composition makes it a useful technology for industries. It generates complex wastewater, including food processing and chemical manufacturing.

3. Water Reuse and Recycling

For water, cities around the world that do not have access to water can turn to MBR systems. It is a good example of use for irrigation or any other non potable use.

4. Decentralized Treatment Systems

Remote areas and small communities can rely on MBR technology for sustainable and efficient wastewater management.
