LG unveils first MBR process for wastewater treatment
Posted on
LG Electronics (LG) has unveiled its first wastewater treatment solution, the Green Membrane Bioreactor (G-MBR) process, signalling LG’s long-term plan to be a major player in the water treatment industry.
LG’s MBR (the main component of the G-MBR process) uses slimmer flat-type microfiltration membrane modules and optimises the space in between, requiring 34 per cent less space than conventional MBRs. G-MBR's membranes are claimed to be highly resistant to contamination and fouling because of advanced debris screening technology, and its phosphorus removal system is claimed to be almost twice as effective as similarly-sized systems in removing phosphorus residue from wastewater.
