Will MBBR filler produce sludge bulking?
Jun 30, 2023
The core of MBBR technology is to realize the full fluidization of the floating carrier filler to achieve the purpose of strengthening the treatment of pollutants. In the practical application of MBBR technology, the factors that need to be considered mainly include the type of biochemical pool, the input amount of floating filler, aeration system, cut-off screen, propeller, etc.
The main cause of sludge bulking is filamentous bacteria. According to foreign reports, MBBR filler helps to weaken the sludge bulking, because it can break up the long filamentous bacteria in the mud system. If it is normal mud Floc, the size of mud floc is much smaller than that of filler, it will not break mud, so from foreign research, MBBR is beneficial to improve the mud settlement ability, and from our engineering practice, the use of MBBR system has Significant mud swelling properties.
