AGAR® RF (Roughing Filter)
The AGAR® RF (Roughing Filter) MBBR is a two-stage biological system consisting of a small volume AGAR® MBBR reactor followed by an activated sludge system. The MBBR reactor utilizes BlueGen Water’s Biomass Carriers to effectively reduce wastewater organic load, while the activated sludge system produces high-quality effluent. This two-stage configuration offers a smaller footprint compared to a traditional activated sludge system and provides protection against shock loads or inhibitory substances. The AGAR® RF is perfect for several industrial sectors dealing with different scenarios. These include retrofitting/upgrading WWTP due to increased production capacity and COD inlet load, managing seasonal COD peaks in fruit juice production and wineries, and acting as a biological “firewall” to conventional activated sludge (CAS) WWTP during emergencies.
The AGAR® RF offers high removal rates and a reduction of high organic loadings in a small reactor volume. It combines the benefits of both MBBR and activated sludge systems, providing a small footprint, resistance to organic peaks, and low operational expenses.
