mbbr system

MBBR

A moving bed bioreactor (MBBR) with a smart design can provide better cost-effectiveness than membrane bioreactor or activated sludge plants. MBBR process design services from SSI Aeration help wastewater treatment plants improve their efficiency. SSI’s MBBR systems save money in plant construction, operation, and maintenance.

IFAS

The right system can improve the treatment capacity of activated sludge treatment systems operating at or above capacity. Adding an integrated fixed film activated sludge system (or IFAS) can enhance the capacity and efficiency of an activated sludge system by taking advantage of existing wastewater treatment technology and boosting it with biological treatment methods. IFAS wastewater treatment systems provide a variety of benefits to plants using activated sludge treatment systems, and it’s relatively easy to install an IFAS system at a treatment plant.

Tertiary

In the wastewater industry, plants often focus on primary and secondary treatments, which do most of the work of preparing wastewater for discharge into the environment. Tertiary treatment is also critical in many situations. It affords the peace of mind of knowing that the treated wastewater is clean, sanitary, compliant with regulations and safe enough for drinking or reuse.

retrievable grid

Retrievable Grid

Though some retrievable grids use disc diffusers, most of them use tube diffusers. The neutral buoyancy of tube diffusers makes them valuable in this case — the buoyancy of disc diffusers can cause them to bounce or “dance” in the tank because the grid is not permanently secured.

Full-Service Wastewater Treatment Systems Company

SSI Aeration can provide full drafting services and will work with facility owners to design and install new systems and equipment or plan upgrades to existing systems. SSI’s drafting department can create both 2D and 3D diagrams for industrial & commercial wastewater treatment projects. Detailed 2D plans provide engineering support and system specifications for a full overview of a new industrial or commercial wastewater treatment system.

The SSI team has the tools needed to develop 3D animations that show how these systems will look in motion. These 3D animations can show a future system’s full capabilities, making it easier to communicate the impacts that a new system will have across an entire facility.

SSI can also provide industrial & commercial wastewater treatment systems with information from a range of advanced simulation software. This includes the use of full biological simulation with Biowin™ software to help facility managers select the optimal treatment programs and evaluate the potential expansion of existing systems. Biowin™ software includes features such as advanced activated sludge system modeling and system-wide pH modeling that can provide highly accurate models of how effectively systems that use biological material will function when active.

The team can also provide computational fluid dynamics (CFD) mixing simulation, which can more accurately model how chemical, physical and biological processes in industrial & commercial wastewater treatment plants providing facility managers with information to design and optimize system operation — as well as finite element method (FEM) analysis of severe duty applications.

SSI field staff are also prepared to:

  • Evaluate how well existing systems are functioning.
  • Perform tests to evaluate the function of existing systems, troubleshoot, identify installation errors and damage.
  • Spot potential issues that could create problems in the future.
  • Perform forensic analysis of system or equipment failures, allowing a facility to understand what went wrong and prepare to make the right upgrades or repairs.

Available testing services include clean and process water oxygen transfer efficiency testing and headloss testing. SSI’s team can also provide facilities with seismic, buoyancy and heat transfer calculations, as well as systems benchmarking and laboratory services for analysis of pilot-tested diffuser samples against control samples.

 

Process Systems Expertise

SSI Aeration field workers have significant experience with a wide range of process systems for wastewater treatment, including both industrial and commercial wastewater treatment systems. Here are some of the types of wastewater treatment that the team has worked with:

  • Aeration basins
  • Swing zones
  • Anoxic zones (intermittent pulse aeration)
  • Equalization basins
  • Channels
  • Aerobic Digesters
  • Post Aeration
  • Chlorination
  • Contact-Stabilization
  • Carousel/Oxidation Ditch
  • Aquaculture
  • MBR, SBR, MBBR, IFAS, Fixed Media and Suspended Media systems
  • Bardendpho
  • Aeration

No matter the type of wastewater treatment a facility uses or plans to use, SSI has the experience and expertise needed to work with that system. Field staff will also provide contractors and facility staff with the training they need for the successful installation of new systems or system upgrades to ensure optimized and worry-free system performance.

Tank Systems Knowledge and Experience

SSI field staff also have extensive experience working with a variety of different tank systems, including:

  • Rectangular tanks
  • Round tanks
  • Tanks with outer annulus
  • Tanks that have flow makers and channel velocity

Trust SSI for Industrial Wastewater Treatment Systems

Companies that want to design a new wastewater treatment system for a facility or upgrade an existing system can count on SSI’s knowledge and experience. SSI can provide a range of system services, including advanced modeling and design of new systems and testing services to ensure optimized performance from any type of wastewater treatment system. Contact us today for more information.
