BIO Cavity Media

These are superior high surface area Carrier Media for high rate IFAS reactors and MBBR with Zero-Clogging in this after pre-treatment, wastewater passes into the Bio Cavity Media Reactor (BCMR), which is fitted with SS-304 retention screen and Diffused Aeration System.

Key features

  • The Cavity Media has a Protected Surface Area of 4000-5000 m²/m³
  • The biofilms inside the pores are kept very thin due to self-cleaning
  • The measured Biodegradation Rates are 10 times higher than that of the conventional media of similar bulk
  • Even though it has very fine and detailed Pore Structure, it does not clog
  • It has a higher active surface area of as high as 5000 m²/m³ in comparison to most other competing products that provide only 400-800 m²/m³ overall surface area
  • It has higher removal performance
  • The biofilm is protected from any mechanical influence
  • It does not clog as there is no unintended and uncontrolled growth of microorganisms as observed in many other conventional tube-shaped carriers, particularly in wastewater with high loads of readily biodegradable COD/BOD
