SBR Sequencing-Batch-Reaktor

The Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) is a flexible and efficient solution for industrial wastewater treatment.

Developed with the collaboration of Prof. Otto R. Wilderer at the TU Munich, this method utilizes a single reactor tank to sequentially carry out different cleaning phases — Fill, React, Settle, Decant, and Empty.

A significant advantage of this system is phase separation, where the sludge settles at the bottom, allowing clear water to be drawn off from the top. This is particularly advantageous for achieving specific water quality goals.

Despite its many advantages, such as high adaptability to various industrial requirements and effective response to load fluctuations, the SBR process requires comparatively more space, which can be considered a drawback, especially in areas where space is limited.

These characteristics make the SBR system a valuable yet space-demanding solution for complex industrial wastewater problems.
