The AquaSBR® sequencing batch reactor is a highly adaptable and dependable wastewater treatment process. However, like any treatment process, SBRs can deteriorate over time, necessitating upgrades or repairs.
Common Issues with Aging SBRs
Obsolete equipment and software
Limited availability of replacement parts
Decreased performance due to wear and tear on components
These challenges can lead to breakdowns, reduced efficiency, and increased maintenance expenses.
Furthermore, as environmental regulations tighten, older SBRs may struggle to meet effluent quality standards. Upgrading your SBR process can offer a cost-effective solution to enhance treatment performance and ensure regulatory compliance.
SBR Items often Repaired or Replaced
Coarse bubble to fine bubble diffusers
Diffuser racks and sleeves
Winches (manual to electric)
Air hoses
Galvanized to stainless steel components
Influent valves, actuators, air valves, decanter valves
Decanters, mixers, aerators, pumps, blowers
Control panel upgrades, PLCs, VFDs, OITs
Software upgrades
Level control systems (float switches to transducers)
Dissolved oxygen probes
Networking/communication improvements
Process control adjustments for improved treatment
Increased automation to reduce operator involvement
SCADA system for remote monitoring
