혁신적인 멤브레인 시스템 개발·제조사인 Koch Membrane Systems(KMS)사가  PURON® MBR(멤브레인 바이오액터) 모듈로 러시아의 정유공장에 있는 하수처리 플랜트 업그레이드를 하는 데 선정됐다.

2015년 시공에 들어가는 이 시스템은 하루 2만4천㎥, 최대 2만8천800㎥의 평균 유량으로 설계됐다. 거대한 원유공장에 있는 현재의 WWTP는 엄격한 배출 규제를 충족하기 위해 MBR 시스템으로 교체되어야 한다.

 

 

 

Koch Membrane Systems (KMS), a developer and manufacturer of innovative membranes systems, has been selected to provide its PURON® MBR (membrane bioreactor) modules for a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) upgrade at a refinery in Russia.

 

With startup scheduled for 2015, the system is designed for an average flow of 24,000 cubic meters per day (6.3 million gallons per day, or MGD), with peaks of up to 28,800 m³/d (7.6 MGD). 

 

The existing conventional WWTP at the large oil refinery had to be replaced by an MBR system to meet tightened discharge regulations. Ninety percent of the wastewater fed into the system is industrial, while the remaining 10 percent is sanitary wastewater generated by the refinery's camps and offices.

 

KMS' submerged PURON modules were selected because of their energy-efficient design, small footprint requirements and the company's engineering support during the bidding and project phase. The customer was also impressed with the strong braided fiber, which reduces the risk of fiber breakage.

 

KMS' scope of supply includes the PURON PSH1500 membrane modules, all pumps and blowers and the complete equipment package for the bioreactors with fine-bubble diffused aeration, mixers and circulation pumps. Also included are complete MBR plant instrumentation, process logic control, motor control cabinet, and chemical dosing systems, as well as installation and commissioning assistance.

 

Russia's water quality improvement program is creating a growing demand for MBR installations. The new water treatment plant will be one of the larger MBR references for KMS in the country, with others to follow.
