Insights from Barry Heffernan: MABR Technology Revolutionizing Wastewater Treatment

Barry Heffernan, Chief Operations Officer at OxyMem, has contributed a compelling article to the February edition of Filtration & Separation magazine. This piece delves into the transformative power of Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor (MABR) technology in enhancing nutrient removal in wastewater treatment lagoons.

Why MABR Technology Matters:

• Space-Saving Design: Integrates nitrification and denitrification processes in a single system, significantly reducing the treatment footprint.
• Energy Efficient: Achieves remarkable oxygen transfer efficiencies and lowers energy consumption, making it ideal for shallow lagoons.
• Minimal Maintenance Requirements: Poreless membrane modules eliminate clogging, resulting in lower operational costs and simplified management.
• Proven Performance: Demonstrated success in pilot projects showcases exceptional effluent quality, meeting stringent discharge regulations.
