MBBR — Moving Bed Bio-Reactor
Compact, low-power, self-regulating biological treatment
How it works
MBBR technology is a better alternative to conventional wastewater treatment plants that are large-sized, power intensive and require constant monitoring. Free-moving biofilm carriers under constant aeration host the bacteria that break down organic load, followed by clarification and tertiary polishing.
How the plant is arranged
Click any vessel to read what it does.
Biology first. Reuse-grade polishing next.
A complete MBBR plant from balanced inlet to treated-water reuse, with the sludge and backwash return paths called out separately.
MBBR Reactor
Free-moving carriers create a large protected biofilm surface while coarse-bubble aeration supplies oxygen and mixing.
Process flow
Follow the numbered train from inlet to treated-water reuse. Click any stage for its engineering note.
Bar Screen & Oil / Grease
Removes rags, debris, and floating oil ahead of the process train.
Why MBBR
Odourless operation with a self-regulating system.
High biofilm surface area — compact plants with high loading rates.
Reduced power consumption compared with conventional activated sludge.
Simple to operate, with low maintenance requirements.
Non-clogging design and better oxygen transfer efficiency.
Attached growth process — no sludge recycling, high MLSS maintained.
Easy to monitor; removes E. coli and coliform.
Capacity from 10 KLD to 2 MLD and above.
