Membrane bioreactors are combinations of membrane processes like microfiltration or ultrafiltration with a biological wastewater treatment process, the activated sludge process. These technologies are now widely used for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. [ 1] The two basic membrane bioreactor configurations are the submerged ...
A rotating biological contactor is a type of secondary (biological) treatment process. It consists of a series of closely spaced, parallel discs mounted on a rotating shaft which is supported just above the surface of the wastewater. Microorganisms grow on the surface of the discs where biological degradation of the wastewater pollutants takes ...
Moving bed biofilm reactor. Moving bed biofilm reactor ( MBBR) is a type of wastewater treatment process that was first invented by Professor Hallvard Ødegaard at Norwegian University of Science and Technology in the late 1980s. [ 1] The process takes place in an aeration tank with plastic carriers that a biofilm can grow on.
Upflow anaerobic sludge blanket ( UASB) technology, normally referred to as UASB reactor, is a form of anaerobic digester that is used for wastewater treatment . The UASB reactor is a methanogenic (methane-producing) digester that evolved from the anaerobic clarigester. A similar but variant technology to UASB is the expanded granular sludge ...
Decentralized wastewater systems (also referred to as decentralized wastewater treatment systems) convey, treat and dispose or reuse wastewater from small and low-density communities, buildings and dwellings in remote areas, individual public or private properties. [ 1] Wastewater flow is generated when appropriate water supply is available ...
NEWater (pronounced New-Water) is the brand name given to highly treated reclaimed wastewater produced by Singapore's Public Utilities Board. NEWater is produced by further purifying conventionally treated wastewater through microfiltration, reverse osmosis and ultraviolet radiation. The water is potable quality and can be added to drinking ...
Membrane technology encompasses the scientific processes used in the construction and application of membranes. Membranes are used to facilitate the transport or rejection of substances between mediums, and the mechanical separation of gas and liquid streams. In the simplest case, filtration is achieved when the pores of the membrane are ...
Anaerobic membrane bioreactor or AnMBR is the name of a technology utilized in wastewater treatment. It is a technology in membrane filtration for biomass retention. AnMBR works by using a membrane bioreactor (MBR) in a anaerobic environment. Anaerobic bacteria ( Mesophile or Thermophile) and archaea convert organic materials into carbon ...
