BIONEX™
Complete Nutrient Removal
SMALL SITE FOOTPRINT
LOW NITRATE CONCENTRATIONS
NO SECONDARY WASTE
LOW OPERATIONAL COSTS
Summary
BIONEX™ is a combination of our ion exhange – commonly our CIF® (Continuous Ionic Filtration) technology, and BIOCLENS™ (encapsulated bacteria lens) technology.
BIONEX™ can consistently acheive low nitrate concentrations (as low as <1 ppm), reliably remove nitrate in all conditions including at low temperatures with low energy consumption and reagent usage.
Process Description
The ion exchange process selectively removes nitrates from the water, and the brine containing the concentrated nitrates is treated by our BIOCLENS™ technology, turning the nitrates into nitrogen gas.
Destroying the nitrates allows the brine to be reused, minimising brine consumption/ spent brine production, and providing higher water recovery.
Applications
Using our BIONEX™ technology, a tertiary treatment solution with nitrate effluent concentrations below 1 ppm can be achieved. With a smaller site footprint than other biological treatment methods, BIONEX™ has a wide range of applications.
