The integrated, fixed-film moving bed, activated sludge biological Suspended Carrier Reactor (SCR) system designs utilized by Envirogen for treatment of municipal and industrial wastewaters are particularly well suited for retrofit of existing conventional municipal activated sludge installations operating at, or exceeding, removal capacity. The SCR is also ideal for achieving nitrogen control or improved nitrogen reduction.

The Suspended Carrier Reactor process is simple in mechanical design, requiring minimal additional instrumentation, controls or operator attention and maintenance requirements to the upgraded conventional activated sludge system.

Envirogen Advantages:

• Potential to increase capacity within same footprint by 100% with low purchase, installation and operating costs
• Consistent effluent quality with tolerance for upset and surge conditions
• Provides more effective reduction of nitrogen and other contaminants
• Net zero impact on plant footprint and existing plant operating labor requirements
• Simple mechanical design and rapid start-up
