BNR Selectors Archives - EnviroMix

Biological nutrient removal (BNR) is a process used to remove nitrogen and phosphorus from wastewater before it is discharged into the environment. Municipal and industrial wastewater treatment facilities that are configured for BNR typically include anaerobic and anoxic selectors in which it is vital to provide proper mixing of wastewater flow and return streams, maintain solids in suspension, and not impart measurable oxygen. A BioMix Compressed Gas Mixing System accomplishes these objectives using a fraction of the energy required by mechanical mixers.

Additionally, the BioCycle Cyclic Aeration Process is ideally suited for municipal and industrial secondary treatment BNR processes. The technology is extremely effective for plants that are underloaded compared to design, or plants with wide diurnal variations.

For anaerobic selectors and fermentation tanks, a BioMix-DC Enhanced Anaerobic Mixing System further optimizes conditions for enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR).
