Anaerobic, biological wastewater treatment

ALMA BIO UASB

The ALMA BIO UASB (Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket) is a robust, single-stage reactor with external biomass recirculation and is an extremely cost-effective solution for various wastewaters from the food industry. It is characterized by a customizable and flexible tank design made of either welded or bolted stainless steel. In addition, it offers an integrated ALMA pre-separator system in durable, welded plastic construction as well as internal gas storage.

Advantages of anaerobic wastewater treatment

High load capacity: Efficient treatment of heavily contaminated industrial wastewater with high COD loads.

Cost-effectiveness: Generally lower operating costs compared to aerobic processes, especially with high COD concentrations, as energy generation and sludge reduction significantly reduce OPEX.
