Membrane Bioreactor (MBR)
A Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) combines microfiltration or
ultrafiltration membranes with a suspended growth bioreactor for
municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. The bioreactor supports a
biologically active environment where bacteria
and protozoa consume substances in the wastewater, and can be aerobic, anoxic, or
anaerobic. Membranes in the MBR
process serve as solid-liquid separation devices, replacing clarifiers in
conventional activated sludge systems.
Ultrafiltration membranes are preferred for their superior separation and lower
fouling. The main membrane geometries
used are hollow fibre, flat sheet, and tubular, while spiral-wound configurations
are unsuitable due to their
sensitivity to suspended solids.
MBR technology is widely used for treating various
wastewater streams, including municipal, industrial, and landfill
leachate. Initially developed for municipal wastewater treatment, MBR systems are
ideal for water reuse and recycling in
limited spaces due to their compact size and efficient operation. In industrial
applications, MBRs handle high organic
loads and chemicals, facilitating the biodegradation of difficult substances by
retaining biomass and enhancing
bacterial and protozoa diversity. For landfill leachate, MBRs, combined with
additional treatments like nanofiltration
and reverse osmosis, effectively remove high concentrations of organic and inorganic
compounds, including heavy metals.
