In wastewater treatment with MBR technology, the biological treatment process is combined with a filtration unit (membrane filter).
A membrane filter consists of a large number of membranes through which water is separated from biomass. With MBR technology we achieve better quality of purified water at the outlet.
MBR TECHNOLOGY
A membrane bioreactor (MBR) is a waste water treatment process that combines membrane filtration and biological treatment. This innovative technology offers a number of advantages over the conventional sludge activation process, such as higher biomass concentration and elimination of the need for additional treatment.
RoMem purifies waste water into clean, high quality water that can be discharged into nature, or used for irrigation and some sanitation purposes.
The MBR module consists of polypropylene panels with a polymer membrane on each side and a frame. The membranes are installed in a RoBox polyethylene tank. In addition to filtration, aeration takes place in the tank. The membranes are cleaned once or twice a year.
The elevated biomass concentration in the MBR process allows for very efficient removal of both soluble and insoluble particles of biodegradable materials at high loading rates. Extended retention times ensure that the waste water is fully nitrified even in very cold weather.
