Effective
system:
liquidsolid
separation
The general SS in MBBR effluent found out to be 150250 mg/L, when treating medium to high strength
wastewaters.
MBBR are low HRT biofilm reactors
According to Ahl et al. (2006), the particle size
distribution shifts towards larger particle size with
increase in HRT.
As biomass accumulation is settling independent,
MBBR is flexible in choice of settler used. (Coagulation
& flocculation. Tube settler, MF/UF etc.)

Advantages:
High-efficiency cBOD removal and nitrification
(even in low temperature environments)
Retention of slow-growing and temperaturesensitive bacterial populations (i.e., autotrophic
nitrifiers and methanol-degrading heterotrophs,
respectively)
low HRT
high biomass concentration
low solids loading on liquidsolids separation unit
