PURE-BIOCOS® is based on a combination of continuous flow technologies and SBR systems represents an advancement compared to them. It is used where nitrification and denitrification take place in a batch aerated space, while phase separation takes place in two parallel post-sedimentation basins. The technology works with compressed air, there are no rotating parts in it. Both recirculated sludge and biological sludge are taken out by a compressed air-controlled mammoth pump. No mixers, electric pumps are required, resulting in less maintenance cost and significant lower risk of malfunction. Due to its advanced working mechanism the technology is flexible: it can be adopted to changing load conditons, and can handle hydraulic loads for example in case of heavy stormwater apperance the sewer system. Mechanical pre-treatment, pre-setting tanks, sludge drying application, UV treatment, chlorination, arrangement of single installation sections, etc. can be attached to the technology.
- COMPACT CONFIGURATION

Advantages of the product
- no excavator bridge required
- smaller floor space requirement compared to traditional technology
- innovative but proven technology
- cost-effective solution
- capital investment savings
Technical data
- Dissolved organic matter in wastewater is converted by microorganisms into carbon dioxide, water and biomass.
- The technology consists of the following steps:
- Aeration pool with the following cycles: raw water dispatch/nitrification, denitrification (mixing)
- Post-sedimentation pools (in parallel arrangement)
- Intermittent aeration must be provided for the technology to work by means of a surface aeration or a fine-bubble deep aeration unit. The amount of oxygen to be ingested can be controlled by measuring an oxygen probe, and aeration can be programmed for the lowest energy consumption.
Key benefits
- combining the benefits of conventional biological
- treatment systems and the SBR technology
- minimal mechanical demand
- reduced energy consumption and maintenance requirements
- easy to operate
- controlled by a fully automatized control system
