Moving Bed Bio-Reactor (MBBR) Wastewater Treatment Systems
Treatment takes place within a septic tank plus an additional aerobic secondary treatment stage, typically within a small–scale on–site mechanical biological packaged treatment plant, before being discharged to a drain field.
A specially designed septic system that is capable of treating sewage to produce effluent of a higher quality standard by including a disinfection process before being discharged into the environment. Treatment takes place within an advanced mechanical-biological treatment plant.
The Canwest Tanks & Ecological MBBR Advanced Wastewater Treatment System has been developed through extensive research and testing. They have proven the system to be highly effective in reducing levels of BOD, TSS & Nitrogen. Additionally, Canwest Tanks MBBR’s versatility allows us to develop a wide range of specifications, making the Canwest Tanks MBBR system applicable to almost any site, residential, commercial, or industrial.
MBBR-Package Treatment Systems ranging from 500 USgpd to 1500 USgpd are NSF®-tested and certified. Custom MBBR-Package Treatment Systems can be manufactured up to 75,000 USgpd
Our Wastewater Treatment Systems offer 3 important outcomes:
1. economic advantage
1. Economics: The Canwest Wastewater Treatment Systems are designed by applying the technology of large industrial-scale systems to single-property-scale solutions. When we bring robust, large-scale technology and combine it with an adaptive design that offers real flexibility, the result is economic advantages for the property.
2. above industry norm performance
2. Performance: We are committed to bringing unmatched performance to the marketplace. We can achieve above-industry-norm performance by providing a highly responsive, rather than a locked, installation system alongside robust technology.
3. certainty due to a highly responsive installation solution with adaptive design.
3. Certainty: The Canwest MBBR wastewater treatment plants provide certainty and confidence due to the future-proofing of volume increases with modular expandability options. The adaptive design, combined with a highly responsive installation system, ensures future reliability as the property scales and grows.
