Draws out the maximum potential of biological treatment by setting up a suitable environment for bacteria.
■Good features: The following can be achieved by installing BF:
1)Highly effective one-pass treatment
2)No sludge generated
3)No maintenance
This system is effective when not requiring a BOD high removal rate.
This system is also effective for treating low-concentration BOD, like river water or ponds, in a short amount of time and its effectiveness is not related to HRT.
■Good features: The below effects are achieved by installing BF.
1)Plant capacity is increased drastically.
2)Pretreatment processes such as dissolved floatation can be eliminated.
3)Excess sludge volume is significantly reduced.
Plant effectiveness is improved by the combined effects of sludge sticking to the media and floating in the tank.
So operation cost is decreased significantly by omit a pretreatment, reduce sludge volume, maintenance free.
