Mobile Organic Biofilm Process
- Mobile: The media applied to the MOB process is mobile and able to circulate freely throughout the process without limitation of sieves or baffles.
- Organic: MOB’s ballasted media application, is an all-natural cellulosic plant that contains a core with high absorptivity.
- Biofilm: Due to the ballasted media’s high surface area, the ballast core is capable of granulizing or growing thick biofilms.
Benefits
☑
Reduces treatment footprint or significantly increases throughput capacity
☑
Minimal mixing and aeration reduce energy consumption compared to other fixed film and granular sludge technologies
☑
Simultaneous nutrient removal and settling reduce the need for polymers, coagulants and phosphorus precipitation technologies, reducing overall chemical cost
☑
Simultaneous nutrient removal with up to 30-60% additional biological phosphorus reduction
☑
Improves sludge dewatering, significantly reducing chemical and hauling expenses
☑
Easy, cost-efficient retrofits
