BioMem™ Membrane Biological Reactor
Next-Generation Biological Filtration for High-Purity Water Reuse
BioMem™ is a Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) next-generation wastewater treatment platform that seamlessly combines biological degradation with membrane filtration to deliver exceptional effluent quality. By integrating an aerobic biological process with ultrafiltration or microfiltration membranes, the system effectively separates treated water from suspended solids and microorganisms, eliminating the need for conventional clarifiers.
HOW IT WORKS
BioMem™ process integrates a biological reactor, where organic matter is biologically degraded, with membrane filtrationmodulesthat act as a physical barrier to solids and pathogens. This eliminates the need for secondary clarifiers or tertiary filtration, producing highly purified effluent in a single step.
Typical Performance:
- BOD < 5 mg/L
- TSS < 1 mg/L

KEY TECHNOLOGY FEATURES
Integrated Biological & Membrane Filtration:
BioMem™process leverages a high concentration of active biomass to degrade organic pollutants, followed by membrane filtration to achieve superior solid-liquid separation. This results in crystal-clear effluent with very low turbidity and near-zero suspended solids.
High-Quality Effluent for Reuse:
The system consistently achieves BOD < 5 mg/L, TSS <1 mg/L, and turbidity < 0.1 NTU, making it suitable for direct discharge or reuse in industrial cooling, irrigation, or further polishing for potable applications.
Compact & Modular Design:
BioMem™systems operate at high mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentrations, allowing for a smaller biological reactor volume and reduced plant footprint compared to conventional activated sludge systems.
Operational Stability & Flexibility:
The robust process design maintains performance under fluctuating hydraulic or organic loads, ensuring stable treatment even in challenging industrial wastewater scenarios.
Reduced Sludge Production:
Higher solids retention time (SRT) improves biomass yield efficiency, minimizing excess sludge generation and lowering disposal costs.
Automated & Intelligent Control:
InfraCorp integrates smart monitoring and control systems to optimize aeration, backwashing, and cleaning cycles, reducing energy consumption and extending membrane life.
