A novel fast mass transfer anaerobic inner loop fluidized bed biofilm reactor for PTA wastewater treatment
In this paper, a fast mass transfer anaerobic inner loop fluidized bed biofilm reactor (ILFBBR) was developed to improve purified terephthalic acid (PTA) wastewater treatment. The emphasis of this study was on the start-up mode of the anaerobic ILFBBR, the hydraulic loadings and the operation stability. The biological morphology of the anaerobic biofilm in the reactors was also analyzed. The ...

Biofilm Enables Streamlining of Wastewater Treatment
The biofilm that forms on the membrane used in Fluence’s MABR technology allows nitrification and denitrification to take place simultaneously in the same tank. Simultaneous nitrification and denitrification means wastewater treatment can take place in a single tank A membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) is a revolutionary wastewater treatment and reuse solution that cuts the energy ...

Biofilm Enables Streamlining of Wastewater Treatment
Simultaneous nitrification and denitrification means wastewater treatment can take place in a single tank A membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) is a revolutionary wastewater treatment and reuse solution that cuts the energy requirements of the aeration cycle by as much as 90% compared to legacy activated sludge systems, for which aeration is by far the largest energy expense. Its low energy ...

The Resilience of Biofilms
These elegant formations of microbes enable robust wastewater treatment Some of Fluence’s signature wastewater treatment solutions are based on membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) technology, which was first introduced in the 1990s. MABR harnesses biofilm, an extremely resilient mode of life that has been found in sediment dating back 3.4 billion years. These formations of microbial ...

Fixed biomass process and its resistance to elevated copper loads during carbon removal and nitrification of industrial wastewater
Metal compounds such as copper are known to be inhibitory or toxic to biological activity within wastewater treatments when reaching a certain threshold concentration. Little information on threshold values can be found for biofilm process like Biological Aerated Filters (BAFs). In this study, a BAF pilot plant (Biostyr®) for carbon removal and nitrification was operated to study its response to ...

4 Typical Misconceptions of MBBR for Wastewater Treatment
When looking for information about a product or service you’re interested in, it can occasionally be difficult to find the answers to your specific questions. Sometimes you can’t really find anything and you end up making inferences based on what you did find. Sometimes, those inferences can be partially or completely wrong. Since you’re here, you’ve likely been looking into moving bed biofilm ...

California Prepares for a Drought-Prone Future Under Stringent Title 22 Water Reuse Standards
Fluence’s first MABR plant in mainland U.S. gives California new medium- and small-scale treatment options that comply with the state’s stringent standards for water reuse Water recycling, which sometimes is referred to by the unfortunate description “toilet-to-tap,” is becoming more and more important in a world facing increasing water scarcity. But the United States ...

Groundwater Level and Surface Water Depletion Linked
Study’s computer model could be influential in future water management A new study looking at a century of groundwater declines in the continental United States has concluded that overpumping water from aquifers is responsible for up to half of the river flow declines that now threaten economies and public health in many regions. The study, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, said ...

Ideal for onsite chlorine applications
Water treatment could be applied to various fields, our anodes are currently used for Sodium Hypochlorite and Electrolysis of water. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is a compound that can be effectively used for water purification. It is used on a large scale for surface purification, bleaching, odor removal and water disinfection. It can be also applied in sanitary wastewater and industrial ...

Study: Buffer Zones Effective in Nitrate Removal
Nitrates can harm aquatic ecosystems and the people who depend on them Too much of a good thing can be a big problem. Nitrogen makes up about 78% of the air we breathe. In its nitrate form, nitrogen is used to fertilize the crops we eat. But, excess nitrogen in agricultural runoff that finds its way into groundwater and down rivers feeds harmful algal blooms in bodies of water. These ...

Water Treatment Membranes and Their Processes
Filtering out contaminants, even at the nano scale, membranes are a mainstay of water and wastewater treatments In water treatment, membranes are barriers that allow water to pass through but stop unwanted substances from passing through with it. Working much like the cell walls in our bodies, technical membranes filter out salts, impurities, viruses, and other particles from water. A membrane ...
