BIMEX MBBR/IFAS BIOMEDIA 1200

MBBR BIMEX bio media 1200

BIMEX MBBR 1200 offers an optimal balance between performance and operational reliability, making it the ideal choice for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment applications requiring high efficiency and long-term stability.

APPLICATION

BIMEX MBBR 1200 bio media is designed for use in biological wastewater treatment systems utilizing the Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) and Integrated Fixed-Film Activated Sludge (IFAS) technologies. Typical applications include:

  • Municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTP)
  • Industrial wastewater treatment (food, beverage, petrochemical, fish, etc.)
  • Biological oxidation (BOD/COD removal)
  • Nitrification and ammonia removal
  • Plant upgrades and capacity expansion
  • Retrofit of conventional activated sludge system

DESIGN FEATURES

High Specific Surface Area

  • Provides ≥ 1200 m²/m³, enabling efficient biofilm growth and enhanced biological treatment performance.

Lightweight Design

  • Manufactured from low-density HDPE, ensuring easy suspension, uniform distribution, and reduced energy consumption.

Anti-Clogging Design

  • Open structure and controlled void ratio minimize clogging risk and maintain long-term performance

High Void Ratio (Porosity)

  • Ensures excellent water flow, oxygen transfer, and effective contact between biomass and wastewater.

Optimized Geometry

  • Wheel-type carrier with multiple internal chambers to maximize protected surface area and biofilm retention.

Enhanced Biofilm Protection

  • Internal structure shields biomass from shear forces, improving process stability and performance.

Excellent Mixing Behavior

  • Near-neutral density ensures uniform suspension and efficient contact with wastewater and oxygen.

High Mechanical Strength

  • Robust construction suitable for continuous aeration and long operational life.

Long Service Life

  • Manufactured from high-quality polymers resistant to chemicals, UV, and biological degradation.

Design & Operation Guidelines

  • Recommended filling ratio: 40–70% of reactor volume
  • Suitable for both aerobic and anoxic processes
  • Requires proper screening and aeration system design
  • Compatible with fine and coarse bubble aeration systems
