Background for MBBR Wastewater Treatment Design Spreadsheet

The moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) is a relatively recently developed wastewater treatment process.  It was developed in the 1990’s, but is now in use in many countries around the world.

The MBBR wastewater treatment process is quite flexible.  It is used for domestic and industrial wastewater treatment and can be designed for BOD removal alone or in combination with nitrification.  It is used as a single stage process or as a two-stage or three-stage process.

 Example MBBR Wastewater Treatment Design Spreadsheet

An example MBBR wastewater treatment design spreadsheet is partially shown in the image below.  This Excel spreadsheet can be used to calculate the required MBBR tank volume and dimensions, based on user input media information and wastewater design flow and characteristics.  This Excel spreadsheet, as well as others for wastewater treatment process design calculations, is available in either U.S. or S.I. units for a very reasonable price in our spreadsheet store.
