High operational efficiency with >94% of BOD removal, few moving parts, and ease of operation.

In the covered Anaerobic lagoon:

  • Large reductions in organic matter (BOD / COD), with little or no energy inputs.
  • Odor control
  • Mineralization of organic Nitrogen
  • Weed seed destruction
  • Pathogen reduction
  • Possible electricity production and heat recovery
  • Very few or NO moving parts

  • In the Aerobic Sequence Batch Reactor:
  • Treatment of the anaerobic effluent-additional polishing
  • Nutrient removal
  • Clear effluent, which may be discharged, reused or treated for drinking water
  • Few moving parts
