Efficient waste water treatment method - MBBR

With the rise in technology there are numerous industries that are coming up every year. These industries use several products that are harmful to the nature. They let out many waste materials and waste water into the environment which affect the eco system. Hence it becomes mandatory to treat these wastes with utter care to protect our nature. Industrial wastes are a major thing to deal with. Some industries even have recycle plants within to have a safe working condition. MBBR treatment or Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor technology is one such kind of waste water treatment. This is an economical solution especially when there is a bulk of waste that needs to be disposed or treated. The main advantage of this kind of solution is that they give better capacity and efficiency compared to the already existing treatment systems. This requires very less space for installation compared to the traditional ones. The MBBR system consists of an activated sludge aeration system where the sludge is collected on recycled plastic carriers. This activated sludge grows on the interior surface of the carriers which then breaks down the organic matters from the waste water. The system can have multiple stages depending upon the requirement.

Membrane Biological Reactor – MBR system is again a treatment process where a membrane is used to separate biomass from the effluent water, substituting for a clarifier. Membrane Reactor for Waste Water Treatment uses thousands of polyethylene biofilm carriers operating in mixed motion within an aerated wastewater treatment basin. This is a very economical system and requires less maintenance. Every industry can use this type of treatment which will provide a very nice environment to our future generation. Though the technology field has got a tremendous growth in the recent years, the cons associated with it are also more. Hence one must be prepared to face these conditions and use the available solutions for the waste water management and treatments.
