Bioreactors


Stand Alone Moving Bed Bioreactors (MBR) 210, 500 and 5500 gallon.  Used in wastewater pre-treatment or recycling.

This unique stand-alone Bioreaction system can be placed into almost any Hydrokleen wastewater treatment system. This unit will dramatically assist existing treatment systems. The HE-BR-500 can be added to any system where light hydrocarbons, high concentrations of oils and grease, antifreeze, pesticides, organic nitrogen and other liquids are a problem.

Bioreactor Specification Sheet

How a True Bioreactor Works

As contaminated water enters the Bioreactor it is slowed down to allow for solids to fall to the bottom of the tank and evenly coat the biomass. Being a moving bed reactor the biomass is systematically rotated allowing all portions of the media to be exposed to the influent. These provide the biodigesters an unlimited surface area for bio-reaction to occur. Pre-packaged in a liquid form, the Hydro-Biodigesters are dispensed automatically into the biomass. Automatic dosing allows precise use of the biological product for maximum digestion of waste. Water passes from the system automatically where it can be discharged for reuse or sanitary sewer. Head pressure purges the accumulated sludge, eliminating the requirement to manually remove solids.


Bioreactor, High Volume

 

Dual 5500 gallon Bioreactors for use in high-flow wastewater recycling or pre-treatment for discharge to sanitary sewer. Bioreaction take time, the flow rate and substrate to be broken down determine the size of the system. This big guy is 5500 gallons. The 5500 can be set up to break down hydrocarbons, high concentrations of oils and grease, antifreeze, pesticides, organic nitrogen and other organics.

Bioreactor, Integrated Into a High Volume System For Hydrocarbon Removal

   
This illustration shows how you may integrate a Bioreactor into our high volume oil/water separator in circumstances where high volumes of light oils and/or organics are present. Refuse companies are a good example of this. This unit will also eliminate antifreeze and other contaminants in recycling applications.  
     

How This Combined System Works

   

As oily water enters the system it is slowed down to allow for solids to fall to the bottom of the coalescing tank and oil/water separation to begin. By gravity the oily water flows through 230,688 square inches of oil coalescing plates. These plates allow for free floating (tramp oils) to gather together into larger droplets where they can float to the surface and be mechanicaly skimmed from the water. Free oil is reduced to less than 50 PPM at this stage. Water then flows by gravity to the second tank containing our unique Biomass material. These provide the Biodigesters an unlimited surface area for bio-reaction to occur. Pre-packaged in a liquid form, the Hydro-Biodigesters are dispensed automatically into the Biomass. Automatic dosing allows precise use of the biological product for maximum digestion of waste. Water then passes to the final stage where it can be discharged for reuse or sanitary sewer. All three water holding tanks are designed for self-cleaning by simply opening a valve at the bottom of each cone. Head pressure purges the accumulated sludge eliminating the requirement to manually remove solids.

Hydro Engineering Inc. Complete Line of Water Filtration and Recycling Equipment Focuses on Environmental Compliance and Getting Equipment Wash Racks to go Green

Environmentally compliant equipment wash racks are not just a dream; they are being designed, built and used all over the world. Wash rack systems are available that seamlessly collect the waste water, filter that collected water for discharge to sewer, or, if no sewer is available, filter and recycle the waste water and process it back into the wash process.

Hydro Engineering Inc. has been designing waste water filtration systems for equipment wash rack applications for over 20 years. But now, new product enhancements to their Hydrokleen product line have simplify every aspect of the filtration or recycling requirement and eliminated the guess work of choosing the correct equipment to filter or recycle wash water.
