Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) is a biological wastewater treatment process that uses specially designed carrier media inside a reactor to provide surface area for microbial growth.
The carrier media remains in motion within the treatment tank, allowing microorganisms to develop biofilm and support biological treatment of wastewater. The process can be incorporated into different wastewater treatment configurations depending on the treatment objective and site requirements.
MBBR technology provides a continuously moving biological treatment environment with a high available surface area for biofilm growth.
MBBR systems can be configured to provide efficient biological treatment while making effective use of available reactor volume.
Carrier media provides a surface for microorganisms to grow and participate in biological treatment.
Media movement helps maintain contact between wastewater, microorganisms and available oxygen.
The process can be integrated into new treatment plants as well as selected upgrade applications.
Properly designed MBBR systems can support effective biological treatment performance.
The MBBR process uses moving carrier media and microorganisms to biologically treat wastewater inside the reactor.
Wastewater enters the biological reactor after suitable preliminary or pre-treatment stages.
Special carrier elements provide protected surface area for microorganisms and biofilm development.
Microorganisms attached to the carrier media contribute to biological degradation of biodegradable pollutants.
Treated wastewater moves to the subsequent treatment or clarification stage according to the overall plant configuration.
MBBR technology can offer a practical approach for biological wastewater treatment where compactness, process flexibility and dependable operation are important considerations.
