BVF
This anaerobic process has a lower volumetric loading than high-rate anaerobic processes. It offers a longer hydraulic retention time and greater biomass inventory, resulting in a significantly more robust treatment process that is well-suited to digest COD, suspended solids (TSS), and degradable fat, oil, and grease (FOG).
-
Easier to operate and maintain than conventional anaerobic systems.
-
Operation and maintenance costs are low.
-
Approximately 90% less waste sludge generated than in aerobic systems.
-
Stable against shock loadings.
-
Waste activated sludge can be digested in the reactor.
