What is High Strength BioBarrier® HSMBR®?

The BioBarrier® HSMBR® is a high strength wastewater treatment system that uses a Membrane Bioreactor (MBR). This technology removes organic pollutants and suspended solids with the use of ultrafiltration membranes. The system is specially designed to treat wastewater with higher organic and nutrient loads produced in commercial applications, and for larger flow rates (>1500 GPD) including residential applications.

How Does it Work?

The membrane module is submerged in a tank full of aerated MLSS (Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids), where organic matter and suspended solids are biologically broken down. The membranes physically separate water from microorganisms and suspended solids. Water is drawn through the membranes with a pump, leaving the suspended biomass material in the aeration tank.

Product Applications

  • Wastewater reuse (dependent on local regulations)
  • Multiple homes and clustered subdivisions
  • Commercial properties, including restaurants and gas stations
  • Extra small lots for drain fields
