Wastewater MBR Treatment Systems

In today's rapidly increasing industrialization, the damage caused by industrial wastewater to the environment has made effective treatment and recovery methods even more important. MBR (Membrane Bio Reactor) technology is an innovative treatment solution developed to meet this need. MBR technology, which provides high efficiency treatment of both domestic and industrial wastewater, draws attention with the advantages it offers over traditional systems.

Basic Principles of MBR Technology

MBR is a technology that combines biological treatment and membrane filtration. Unlike traditional treatment systems, membrane modules separate sludge from water, resulting in purified water with higher purity. The basic steps of how MBR technology works:

1. Pre-Treatment The wastewater system is passed through a screen to remove large, free-floating particles. This preliminary step prevents the system from clogging and increases the efficiency of the treatment process.

2. Biological Treatment Wastewater is mixed with air bubbles in an air diffusion system to break down organic pollutants. The blower provides more oxygen to the bacteria, which supports both the biological treatment process and the cleaning of the membrane modules.

3. Membrane Filtration Filtration is achieved by directly withdrawing water from the MBR modules. A vacuum pump is used in this process and provides the purified wastewater.
