The principle of anaerobic treatment is the utilization of anaerobic bacteria (biomass) to convert organic pollutants or COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) into biogas in an oxygen free environment.
Anaerobic Wastewater Treatment
Anaerobic treatment is a proven and energy efficient method to treat industrial wastewater. Low energy use, a small reactor surface area, lower chemical usage and reduced sludge handling costs are advantageous features of this technology over aerobic alternatives. In addition, biogas is produced during anaerobic treatment, which can be used to produce energy. It is possible for an anaerobic plant to be energy neutral or even an energy producer.
Biothane® UASB
The Biothane® UASB (Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket) technology is a proven and reliable process, exclusively owned by Biothane. It is a maintenance-free, corrosion-free and rugged process with a straightforward design.
Biobed® EGSB
The proprietary Biobed® EGSB (Expanded Granular Sludge Bed) technology by Biothane is a masterpiece of efficiency thanks to its advanced and proven process design and its relatively low investment needs in capital and maintenance.
Anaerobic MBR (AnMBR)
Biothane's Anaerobic MBR (AnMBR) technology treats high-strength waste streams previously considered economically untreatable through traditional wastewater processes alone. Biothane's technology maximizes COD and TSS removal, eliminating disposal costs while generating methane-rich biogas for even greater energy savings, all without the drawbacks inherent to energy-intensive aerobic systems.
Biobulk CSTR
The Biobulk CSTR (Completely Stirred Tank Reactor) technology is designed especially for wastewaters that contain high concentrations of non-dissolved substances and fats. It is the anaerobic equivalent to the conventional activated sludge digestion system.
SEAD
Biothane's unique SEAD (Shear Enhanced Anaerobic Digestion) technology is specially designed for sludge and biodegradable solid digestion needs. It is a high-rate, completely-mixed anaerobic digestion process.
Biogas Scrubbers
Biothane provides complimentary solutions to clean the produced biogas. By making it safe to work with, it can serve as a source of renewable energy that can be utilized in the production process.
Upthane™
Upthane™ is an Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) treatment system specifically designed for the treatment of low strenght wastewater like municipal sewage.
