The Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) process applies the
fundamental principles of biofilm technology while fully leveraging
the advantages of the activated sludge process and overcoming the
limitations of both conventional activated sludge systems and
fixed-bed biofilm methods. A key innovation lies in the development
of bio-carriers with a specific gravity close to water, which move
freely with minimal agitation. These carriers offer a large
effective surface area ideal for microbial colonization.
The MBBR process is highly adaptable and applicable across a broad
spectrum. It can be used for organic matter removal as well as
nitrogen and phosphorus elimination. It is suitable for new
wastewater treatment plants and is particularly effective for
retrofitting and upgrading existing facilities.

Advantages of the MBBR Process
After successfully installing the MBBR system, you need to
understand its working principle for you to get the best out of it.
Luckily, the MBBR system has a simple working principle that anyone
can easily understand.
For one the MBBR system has activated sludge aeration systems in
which case the sludge is collected on the recycled plastic
carriers. These carriers named K1 media have a large surface for
air, bacteria and contact water.
The activated sludge, which is also the bacteria grows on the
internal surface of the carriers. This way, organic matter from the
wastewater is broken down by the bacteria.
The excess sludge with then come separate from the carriers and
will then flow with the treated water towards the final separator.
This will also help eliminate the extra amount of bacteria growth.
Additionally, depending on the specific demands, the system can
have one stage or more stage system. The primary bacteria of the
process remain in their own duty tank since the carriers remain
only in one tank.
