Cleartec - Cleartec® System Fixed media IFAS (Integrated Film Activated Sludge)

IFAS (Integrated Film Activated Sludge) is an economical solution for the upgrade and expansion of existing activated sludge systems. IFAS is particularly suitable to plants where additional aerations basins cannot be accommodated. IFAS is a hybrid treatment approach that combines attached biological growth with suspended biological growth. A high surface area, solid support media is immersed into a basin with suspended biological growth. The media then provides a surface for the growth of additional attached biomass. This combination of attached and suspended biological growth efficiently increases the biomass in a given system. Cleartec® is a registered trademark of Langendorf Textil GmbH.
