MBBR NEWS

Although MBBR systems can handle a wide range of influent qualities, extremely high pollutant concentrations or toxic substances may affect microbial activity and system efficiency. A pretreatment step helps optimize performance.

Foaming may occur as a result of too much surface-active material or excessive microbial activity. Foaming can be controlled by adjusting the amount of aeration and adding anti-foaming agents.

Yes, MBBR systems can be used in conjunction with other physical, chemical or biological water treatment technologies to achieve specific water quality goals.

Physical damage to the media or a significant drop in processing efficiency may indicate the need for media replacement. Periodic visual inspections and system performance monitoring help in decision making.

MBBR systems can accommodate a wide range of temperatures, but microbial activity varies with temperature. Temperature control within a certain range can optimize treatment efficiency.

The fill ratio has a direct effect on the oxygen transfer efficiency and microbial growth of the system. Too low a ratio may result in inadequate treatment efficiency, while too high a ratio may cause impeded water flow and media buildup.

PH is one of the key factors affecting microbial activity. Controlling it within the appropriate range ensures that the microorganisms metabolize efficiently, thus ensuring the efficiency of the water treatment system.

MBBR technology is highly flexible and suitable for all sizes of water treatment projects from small to large, including residential neighborhoods, commercial facilities and industrial applications.

Air bubbles play an important role in MBBR systems by helping to keep the media in suspension and providing sufficient oxygen for microbial metabolism. Proper aeration can improve treatment efficiency.
