Dear Francesco,
The MBBR process enables total nitrogen removal in compact spaces through high-density nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria populations. ... MBBR denitrification processes are commonly used in decentralized wastewater treatment systems for their ease of operation and elimination of bulking problems.
- Nitrate in drinking water can cause Blue Baby SyndromeIncreased .
- levels of nitrate in water supplies can increase the acidity of the water and make toxic metals such as mercury more soluble.
- Growth of nuisance algae blooms can cause decreased water quality and cause fish kills.
Advantages of MBBR
- Smaller Footprint
- Utilize whole tank volume for biomass
- Less Sludge Produced (Better Settling)
- No Return Activated Sludge
- Easy Expansion (more media)
- No Media Clogging
- Reliability and Ease of Operation
- Easy to Retrofit Existing Basins
- MBBR can handle Saline water easily.
