Membrex Brochure

Membrane BioreactorMeeting the most stringent discharge quality requirements, including disinfection (DI), nitrogen (DN) and phosphorus removals (DP). Meets California Title 22 ‘’wastewater reuse’’ criteria.Taking wastewater treatment to the next level with the latest technology on the market that allows for water re-use.Benefiting from a partnership with HUBER Technology, a leading German company with over 700 MBR installations in Onsite & Decentralized Wastewater Treatment applications.Partnering with the strongest Service network in Onsite & Decentralized Wastewater Treatment in North America for full support and maintenance.Using a patented flat sheet membrane design to guarantee simplicity, reliability and the much needed robustness in a wastewater environment.Getting the highest potential from the land in harmony with the existing environment along with the highest level of treatment performance.State of the artProvenPeace of mindHighest PerformanceRobustUltra compactMembrane sheets ensure ultrafiltration, and air scouring in the membrane module brings optimum performance out of the flat sheet membranes with a minimum need for maintenance. High quality and reliable equipment for the aeration, scouring, permeat pumping and peripherals are integral part of the MembrexTM system. The MembrexTM control panel ensures proper monitoring of the equipment and the process. Optional:Nitrogen removal (DN): The MembrexTM tank is separated in two sections (filtration and controlled aeration) to create N-DN biological reactions.Phosphorus removal (DP): a dosing system is added to feed coagulant in the MembrexTM process tank.Number 1 choice when highest effluent quality is requiredMembrexTM is the simplest and most efficient way to meet the most stringent quality discharge requirements allowing for DI (optional DN and DP). The treatment combines an efficient activated sludge and a submerged ultrafiltration membrane acting as a physical barrier, stopping pathogens and suspended solids. The MembrexTM system can meet the California Title 22 ‘’wastewater reuse’’ criteria. MembrexTM is specifically designed as the ideal system for Commercial and Community applications.MembrexTM is born from a partnership involving two leaders in the Onsite & Decentralized Wastewater Treatment industry: Huber Technology and Premier Tech Aqua (PTA). Huber Technology is the only company that shows for over 700 performing MBR installations in Europe for Onsite & Decentralized applications. With its team dedicated to IR&D, PTA has successfully adapted Huber’s MBR technology to address the North American market and thus act as its integrator. Coupled with PTA unique and strongest Service network, this partnership brings to market a state of the art MBR system that can efficiently answer the most demanding wastewater treatment requirements of Commercial and Community applications in North America and beyond. Primary treatmentIt consists of a regular septic tank (according to local regulation) or a mechanical separation with 3 mm opening size. For projects involving food processing, a grease trap must be installed upstream of the septic tank. Equalization tankIt provides an optimum feeding of wastewater to the biological and filtration treatment unit. This tank is equipped with submersible pumps monitored by the MembrexTM control panel. MembrexTM This system typically has a section for biological process and one for the filtration process where the membrane modules are installed. Fine bubbles aeration provides oxygen for the biological degradation which converts the oxydable pollutants into activated sludge. 123 Discharge The final disposal is usually done by surface discharge or according to local requirements. It can also be re-used when authorized by regulation.41 234 3Environmentally sensitive sitesParameters PerformanceBOD5 (biochemical oxygen demand)* 2 mg/LTSS (total suspended solids)* 2.3 mg/LFecal Coliforms* 46 CFU/100 mLPT** < 0.1 mg/LType of membrane Flat sheetMembrane material Polyethersulfone (PES)Pore size 0.038 µmSeparation process UltrafiltrationFrame Material Stainless SteelSize (D x W x H) 380 mm x 450 mm x 903 mmEffective membrane surface area 14 m2If your projects involve:Tr• eating wastewater in restrictive lots or in proximity of sensitive areas and meeting stringent discharge requirements?Ad• dressing high performing tertiary level treatment needs such as DI, DN, or DP?Op• timizing land usage and guaranteeing harmony with the existing environment?Pl• anning for the scalability of the overall project?Ta• king into account the seasonality of the operations?In• tegrating LEED factors such as reuse for irrigation?Then MembrexTM is your answer when no solution was thought possibleTreatment PerformanceTypical Membrane Specifications* Average results from certification testing in Germany, executed by independent experts from the testing institute for wastewater technology at Aachen**With addition of a phosphorus removal unit Membrane Bioreactor Exceptional performance, compact and robust, supported by the strongest Service Network in the Onsite & Decentrallized wastewater industryRegisterThe strength of Premier Tech AquaSince 1923, Premier Tech has been building its know-how and reputation on the diversity and technological expertise of its 1 700 team members located all around the world.
