MBBR technology for wastewater treatment utilizes polyethylene biofilm carriers in various shapes and sizes, like cylindrical with fins, K1 media, IFAS, bio-blocks, and floating or sinking media, to optimize microorganism growth for pollutant degradation, with the choice depending on wastewater characteristics, treatment goals, reactor design, and budget.
For example, our MBBR64 has a flat cylindrical shape and the bio block70 has a long cylindrical shape. MBBR systems need to ensure that the carriers are free to move around the reactor, which means that there must be sufficient agitation or water flow.Bio Blocks may require less power input as they don't need to move, but need to be cleaned regularly to maintain their surface area and efficiency.
