Anaerobic treatment is an energy-efficient process in which microbes transforms organic content of wastewater into biogas in the absence of oxygen. 

The process is configured in a reactor with a gastight cover.

Products

Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB)

High-rate anaerobic treatment for organic-rich wastewater

Salient Features

  • Effective in treating high-strength organic wastewater
  • Generates a renewable energy source (biogas) that can be used for heating or electricity generation
  • Anaerobic digestion produces significantly less excess sludge compared to aerobic processes
  • No requirement for aeration, which is energy-intensive in aerobic treatment
  • Generally, less complex than some other advanced wastewater treatment systems
  • Can handle high loads in a relatively small reactor volume due to the high biomass concentration

Anerobic Filter

Sustainable wastewater treatment through anaerobic biofilms

Salient Features

  • Effective in treating soluble organic matter
  • High biomass retention leads to stable and efficient treatment
  • Can handle fluctuations in organic loading rates
  • Relatively low sludge production compared to aerobic processes
  • Relatively simple construction and operation

Anerobic MBR

Hybrid anaerobic-membrane systems for high-quality effluent

Salient Features

  • Produces high-quality treated water that is low in suspended solids, turbidity, and often bacteria and viruses, making it suitable for reuse applications
  • Combines the efficient degradation of organic matter by anaerobic digestion with the excellent solids retention of membrane filtration
  • The high biomass concentration and efficient separation allow for smaller reactor volumes compared to conventional anaerobic systems, followed by clarification
  • Solids Retention Time (SRT) from Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) allows for slow-growing microorganisms to thrive, leading to higher degradation of organic matter and better stability
  • Generates a renewable energy source (biogas)
  • Anaerobic digestion inherently produces less sludge compared to aerobic processes, and the high Solids Retention Time (SRT) in AnMBRs can further reduce sludge yield
  • Depending on the specific application, AnMBRs can be integrated with nutrient recovery processes

AnoxyBed™

High-rate anaerobic treatment for efficient COD removal

Salient Features

  • High-rate treatment: Effectively handles high COD loads, reducing operational costs
  • Space-saving design: Tower configuration minimises land requirements
  • Enhanced sludge settling: Specialised three-phase separator ensures efficient biomass retention
  • Clog-resistant: Unique influent piping design prevents clogging from high Ca2+ and heavy sludge

AnoxyMem®

Driving circular economy through advanced wastewater treatment

Salient Features
