Technology Features & Benefits
- Greatly improved MLSS settling characteristics year-round
- Eliminates sludge bulking even for high filamentous organism
conditions, and helps prevents potential nocardia infestations
- Consistent high RAS concentrations up to 2%
- Maintains year-round MLSS concentrations of 6,000 to 8,000 mg/l
or higher
- Reduced Biotreatment cells size up to approximately 50% smaller
than conventional activated sludge BNR WWTPs of same depth
- True Anoxic and Anaerobic conditions to optimize BNR processes
- Energy savings up to 50% for mixing of reduced volume Bio Cells
- No settled sludge pop up in secondary clarifiers
- Reduced secondary clarifiers surface area by up to 30%
- Protects from storm flow hydraulic overloading and poor performance
- No floating scum nuisance on secondary clarifiers, so collection,
management and disposal of scum is reduced or eliminated
- Operator-friendly, stable WWTP performance and minimum
process supervision required
- High Resistance to organic shocks and impacts from maximum
hour hydraulic overloading
- Allows for substantially reduced WAS production and use of WAS
Gravity Thickening options
- Thicker WAS up to 2% reduces dewatering costs, energy
consumption, and chemicals use
