Spiral wound MBR / SMBR
SMBR is a submerged backwashable spiral membrane, which is used in the field of industrial wastewater and other processes. SMBR is a innovative product which can implement washing flow from the permeate carrier side with certain pressure. Submerged systems rely on centrifugal pumps to generate a slight vacuum pulling water through the membrane barrier layer. At the same time, its backwashing frequency is the same as hollow fiber membrane.
FEATURES:
Air scour can decrease the pollutant deposition on membrane surface
Open flow channels allows a worse feed quality
Both submerged and split-type are acceptable with small field area
Frequent backwashing is allowable
The equipment investments and energy costs are lower
APPLICATION:
Identical | Difference |
Frequent backwashing | SMBR has lower energy costs |
Lower feed quality requirement | SMBR has no risk of filament break |
High recycle rate | SMBR has open channels to prevent soild deposition |
