Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) is an advanced wastewater treatment technology used to extract liquid from a suspended growth activated sludge system.

The MemPulse® MBR process replaces the secondary clarifiers typically used in conventional waste treatment methods for solid/liquid separation. Unlike secondary clarifiers, however, the treated water quality is not dependent on the mixed liquor suspended solids concentration or the settling characteristics of those solids. 

In fact, MemPulse®  MBR systems can operate at much higher biological mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentrations than conventional activated sludge systems. Typically from 8,000 mg/l to 12,000 mg/l or 3 to 6 times the solids concentration in conventional systems. In addition, the retention of all biomass allows greater control of Solids Retention Time (SRT)
