Moving Bed Bioreactor (MBBR)

Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) technology employs biofilm carriers operating in mixed state within an aerated wastewater treatment basin. Each individual biocarrier increases productivity through providing protected surface area to support the growth of heterotrophic and autotrophic bacteria within its cells. It is this high-density population of bacteria that achieves high-rate biodegradation within the system, while also offering process reliability and ease of operation.

This technology provides cost-effective treatment with minimal maintenance since MBBR processes self-maintain an optimum level of productive biofilm. Additionally, the biofilm attached to the mobile biocarriers within the system automatically responds to load fluctuations.

MBBR processes improve reliability, simplify operation, and require less space than traditional wastewater treatment systems.

Variety of biocarriers are available in the market; Prakruti employs the media with the highest surface area and longer life thereby reducing the capex and opex cost.

We have successfully executed EPC contracts and supplied package plants for waste water treatment based on MBBR for FMCG sector of industries, buildings and domestic effluent.
