Normal 0 14 false false false IT ZH-CN X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 The SBBGR system (Sequencing Batch Biofilter Granular Reactor) is a new form of technology developed from the Water Research Institute of Bari (Irsa - Cnr) used to treat municipal and/or industrial wastewater.
One of the most important benefits of this technique is the very low sludge production (i.e. 0.12-0.14 kg TSS/kg CODremoved) which is obtained by maintaining a very high efficiency removal capacity.
In particular, with regards to its industrial application, the SBBGR system was used to treat tannery industrial wastewater achieving a removal capacity of 80 - 90% of the COD, suspended solid and ammonia content. The system is currently being integrated with an ozonation unit with the aim of increasing the biodegradability of refractory compounds occurring in tannery wastewater.
The SBBGR system project received an award during the Italian edition of “European Business Awards for the Environment” and was recognized by the European Commission as one of the “Best Life Environment Projects”.
