Membrane Bio Reactors
Membrane bio reactor combines the biological process with membrane filtration. This advanced technology gives more benefits over conventional activated sludge processes in treatment of sewage. Nearly 20 percent of the modern sewage treatment plants are equipped with MBR where the treated effluent is reused.
MBR replaces a series of unit operations of conventional activated sludge process as shown in the figure. The results of MBR are far superior and consistent than conventional activated sludge process with primary and secondary clarifiers and sand and carbon filters.
