Rental or temporary, mobile MBBR systems for industrial wastewater treatment
A Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) is a biological treatment technology for wastewater that uses microbial biofilm formed on media “carriers” to remove organic contaminants dissolved in water. Biofilm carriers are suspended in the wastewater flowing through the reactor and thoroughly mixed to create a protected surface to develop a biofilm community. This biofilm subsists on the organic molecules while treated wastewater leaves the system. MBBR systems are commonly used by industrial facilities due to their compact sizing and high treatment rate. They can be used to remove soluble BOD/COD and nitrogen-based contaminants (TKN, Ammonia, Nitrate/Nitrite) that are common in industrial wastewater.
The Biosphere® Mobile MBBR System by Evoqua Water Technologies, now part of Xylem, is a skid-mounted system that does not require a permanent foundation for installation. This compact system is delivered pre-assembled and rapidly commissioned.
It is an effective solution to quickly deliver MBBR capabilities on demand, avoiding the long lead times for permanent biosystem installations. Our rental MBBR systems fit a number of potential applications, including:
In addition to BOD/COD these units can also be used for Ammonia treatment (NH3/TKN) and can be configured for nitrates removal (NO3/NO2) as well.
Our Biosphere Mobile MBBR System consists of three primary components: the mobile bioreactor, aeration blower, and the system control skid. The chart illustrates the potential treatment capacity of a single mobile MBBR across several different industries. Multiple mobile units can be systematized in parallel or series configurations to treat additional wastewater capacity or to meet different treatment goals.
Leases for the Biosphere Mobile MBBR Systems are available for any duration longer than 6 months. Xylem offers high-rate RT-Series dissolved air flotation (DAF) clarification systems for lease alongside the Mobile Biosphere Mobile MBBR Systems for applications that require clarification.
