Membrane Bioreactor
Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) – Advanced, Space-Efficient Wastewater Treatment
The Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) is an advanced, compact wastewater treatment solution engineered for both municipal and industrial applications. This innovative system seamlessly integrates biological treatment with cutting-edge membrane filtration—utilizing microfiltration and ultrafiltration technologies—to achieve exceptional effluent quality.
MBR membranes act as high-precision barriers, effectively separating and removing solids generated during the biological process. The result is a clear, pathogen-free effluent that meets the highest regulatory standards.
MBR technology provides far better sludge-bulking control, a smaller plant footprint, and consistently superior treatment efficiency compared to traditional systems. As shown in Figure 1, the submerged MBR configuration features a streamlined design that highlights its energy efficiency, high permeability, and straightforward operation.

Advanced Water Treatment : MBR, Electrocoagulation, ZLD
Integrating the advanced capabilities of Membrane Bioreactors (MBR), the precise treatment control of Electrocoagulation, and the eco-efficient strategy of Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) creates a comprehensive water treatment approach—delivering high-purity output while significantly reducing environmental impact.
Applications of MBR
Membrane Bioreactors (MBRs) are particularly suited for untreated effluent streams containing easily biodegradable organic carbon—commonly found in the food and beverage industry.MBR technology has been effectively implemented across various industrial sectors, including:
Pharmaceutical production, where wastewater contains active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs)
Pulp and paper processing, characterized by elevated levels of BOD, COD, and suspended solids
Textile manufacturing, generating highly toxic and colored effluents
Petroleum refining, with complex wastewater streams
Marine and shipping operations, dealing with shipboard wastewater
