SBR Wastewater Treatment

Sequencing batch reactors (SBR) fill-and-draw waste-activated sludge for wastewater treatment. In this system, raw wastewater is added to a single “batch” reactor, treated to remove undesirable components, and then discharged.

Equalisation, aeration, and clarification can all be achieved using a single batch reactor. To optimise the system’s performance, two or more batch reactors are used in a predetermined sequence of operations.

SBR systems have been successfully used to treat both municipal and industrial wastewater. They are uniquely suited for wastewater treatment applications characterised by low or intermittent flow conditions specifically:

  • Mining Camps
  • Breweries
  • Wineries and Restaurants
  • Caravan and Camping Parks

With SBR WWTPs you have more control of the changing volumes and effluent produced.

All our WWTPs come with touch-screen HMIs for ease of operation and fault-finding. They are also completed with remote Telemetry Monitors and Controls for easy problem-solving without costly site visits. We also offer daily/weekly/monthly Monitor and Report packages with your system.

Why SBR Wasterwater is Best?

  • Total control of changing volumes and biological parameters.
  • Equalization, primary clarification (in most cases), biological treatment, and secondary clarification can be achieved in a single reactor vessel.
  • Operating flexibility and control.
  • Minimal footprint.
  • Potential capital cost savings by eliminating clarifiers and other equipment.
  • Very low maintenance with high quality best in industry equipment from
    Tsurumi, Grunfos and Ebara.

Advantages of SBR Systems

Total Control of Changing Volumes and Biological Parameters

The SBR system excels in its ability to adjust to fluctuations in wastewater volume and composition. This adaptability ensures that each batch of wastewater receives customised treatment, optimising the biological processes necessary for effective waste management.

Single Reactor Versatility

The system combines several treatment steps—equalisation, primary clarification (in most cases), biological treatment, and secondary clarification—within a single reactor vessel. This integration simplifies the SBR process, enhancing both efficiency and reliability.

Operating Flexibility and Control

SBR technology provides unparalleled flexibility in its operation. It allows for precise control over each phase of the treatment cycle, enabling adjustments based on real-time demands and conditions. This level of control is crucial for maintaining high treatment standards and adapting to variable inflow and load conditions.

Minimal Footprint

The SBR system’s compact design minimises the physical space required for installation. Consolidating multiple processes into one unit reduces the need for extensive infrastructure, making it ideal for locations with space constraints.

Potential Capital Cost Savings

SBR systems can significantly reduce initial capital expenditures by eliminating the need for separate clarifiers and other ancillary equipment. This streamlined approach lowers upfront costs and simplifies the overall treatment process.

Very Low Maintenance

Australian Water Technologies equips its SBR systems with high-quality components from industry-leading manufacturers like Tsurumi, Grundfos, and Ebara.

This commitment to quality ensures that our systems are efficient and require minimal maintenance, reducing long-term operational costs and enhancing system longevity.
