MABR: Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor Technology, Water is essential to life—our bodies rely on it to keep organs functioning properly. Without it, dehydration sets in, organs begin to shut down, and life becomes unsustainable. Access to clean water isn’t just a necessity—it’s a matter of survival.
This is where the Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor (MABR) steps in as a cutting-edge solution designed to ensure the safe treatment of municipal wastewater. By safeguarding water quality, MABR protects both communities and the environment, preserving the delicate balance of life on our planet.
For many, terms like “membrane” and “biofilm” may sound complex, but MABR simplifies wastewater treatment with its state-of-the-art technology. Backed by expertise and turnkey solutions, we’re proud to be a leader in delivering water and wastewater solutions that matter.
The Science Behind MABR
At its core, the MABR technology leverages bubbleless aeration via a specialized membrane material that serves as a biofilm carrier. Unlike traditional membrane bioreactors (MBR) that rely on suspended growth processes, MABR utilizes an aerobic biological treatment method based on fixed-film technology.
Wastewater treatment processes generally fall into aerobic or anaerobic methods and can utilize suspended or fixed media. MABR’s fixed-media design sets it apart, ensuring highly efficient and sustainable water treatment.
The Membrane Advantage
The MABR system features a spirally-wound, semi-permeable membrane, offering a longer lifespan with minimal maintenance needs. Its versatile application makes it the perfect fit for a variety of settings—including resorts, hotels, rural communities, and urban developments.
Not only is MABR efficient, but it’s also energy-conscious, standing out as one of the most environmentally considerate solutions for domestic wastewater treatment on the market. Plus, its scalable and modular design addresses the unique challenges of both retrofits and new constructions, with configurations ranging from small-scale systems to utility-level supply.
Compact and Scalable Design
MABR’s single-tank, small-footprint design enables containerized packaging, making shipping and installation quick and easy. Starting with compact solutions capable of treating water in a 20-foot container, the system offers seamless scalability to meet growing demand. This makes MABR the ideal choice for modular treatment needs, providing flexibility for future upscaling.
Whether used as a standalone solution or integrated into an existing plant to boost capacity or improve water quality, MABR adapts to various requirements with exceptional performance.
