BIOWAVE SBR
Most Advanced Sequential Batch Reactor Technology
Technology Description
BIOWAVE™ is a modified SBR technology that combines plug-flow initial reaction conditions with a completely mixed reactor basin, divided into zones by baffle plates for optimal treatment.
Selector with RAS-flow
Advanced selector system with return activated sludge flow recycle at the front end for optimal performance.
Static Mixing Systems
Static mixing and distribution systems ensure uniform treatment and optimal nutrient contact.
Fine Bubble Aeration
High efficiency fine bubble aeration system for superior oxygen transfer and energy efficiency.
High-Rate Air Mixing
High-rate air mixing for facultative anoxic operation, enabling versatile treatment modes.
Process Cycle
BIOWAVE™ combines variable volume treatment with a biological SELECTOR, enabling simultaneous nitrification, denitrification, and biological phosphorus removal in a single step.
Filling & Aeration (F&A)
Raw or pre-treated sewage enters while the aeration system is active, with mixed liquid recycled into the Selector zone at rates up to 300% of inflow.
Filling & Settle (F&S)
Inlet feed collects in the selector while the reactor zone settles, with baffle walls preventing turbulence and short circuits.
Filling & Decanting (F&D)
The decanter travels slowly from its parking position to remove treated effluent while maintaining system stability.
