Membrane Bio Reactor – MBR

Emvees has acquired among the latest technologies in biological treatment: the Membrane Bio Reactor (MBR). It is a state-of-the-art membrane separation technology that produces treated water with the highest bacterial reduction, without adding any chemicals. The MBR has many advantages such as the high quality of treated water, a smaller footprint for installation, and easier operation compared to the conventional Activated Sludge Process (ASP).

The MBR stands distinguished through its revolutionary use of submerged membranes in the biological process water tank. This produces high quality permeates with extremely low suspensions in treated water. The MBR can be used for the following streams:

• Industrial wastewater.
• Pre-treatment for RO.
• Cooling tower blowdown.

The MBR is also ideal for retrofitting, augmenting capacity, and improving the quality of existing wastewater plants. It can handle the highest sludge concentrations in the aeration tank, because of which the tank size can be five times smaller. Since the membrane acts as a fine filter, it does not require further tertiary treatment using sand filters, activated carbon filters, or other methods.

The MBR plant is available in standard and customized modules.
