MABR technology a reliable wastewater solution, when power outages are a constant concern, choosing the right wastewater solution is critical for protecting both the environment and local communities. Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor (MABR) technology stands out as the most energy-efficient wastewater treatment option available, proven to perform reliably even when power is unpredictable.
MABR technology operates on the principle of passive aeration, where oxygen diffuses through semi-permeable membranes. In this process, oxygen is continuously supplied to a nitrifying biofilm that grows on the membrane’s surface. This allows for nitrification to occur within the biofilm while denitrification happens simultaneously in the surrounding liquid, leading to highly effective nutrient removal.
The Benefits of Aspiral™ MABR Solutions
High-Quality Effluent
MABR’s efficient nutrient removal process produces high-quality water, suitable for safe discharge into the environment or for reuse in irrigation.
Simultaneous Nitrification and Denitrification (SND)
A unique biofilm forms on the spirally wound membrane, enabling SND to occur in a single tank. This results in superior nutrient removal with a smaller footprint.
Low Operational Costs
Aspiral’s simple design requires minimal maintenance, which keeps operating costs down. The systems can be remotely operated and controlled, and the process reduces the need for supplemental carbon sources.
Unmatched Energy Efficiency
By using low-pressure passive aeration, MABR modules cut the energy required for aeration by up to 90%. This incredibly low energy consumption makes it possible to operate decentralized treatment systems off grid.
Low Odor and Noise
Passive aeration not only saves energy but also significantly reduces noise and odor levels, making Aspiral™ systems neighborhood-friendly.
Flexible and Scalable
Fluence Aspiral™ MABR solutions are packaged in standard shipping containers, making them decentralized, scalable, and easy to transport and install.
