AGAR® MBCR
(Moving Bed Clarifying Reactor)
The AGAR® MBCR (Moving Bed Clarifying Reactor) is a cutting-edge technology that integrates both biological treatment and clarification in a single reactor, making it an ideal solution for decentralized WWTPs. Based on BlueGen Water’s extensive experience in designing and operating MBBR WWTPs, the MBCR aims to streamline operations and reduce capital and operational costs related to solids separation. Traditionally, MBBR systems are followed by solid separation units such as DAFs or AGAR® MCs, but the MBCR incorporates the secondary clarifier directly into the bio-reactor. This innovative configuration results in a smaller footprint and lower chemical consumption, leading to reduced capital and operational expenses when compared to MBBR systems with separate solids removal units. The MBCR is particularly suitable for small communities and decentralized WWTPs due to its small footprint, operational simplicity, and excellent quality effluent. It is fully automated with minimal maintenance requirements and no scum.
