Specifically, the ActiveCell™ technology employs thousands of polyethylene biofilm carriers operating in mixed motion within an aerated wastewater treatment process.
Media: Biofilm Carriers
The next step is biological treatment, using a Moving Bed Bioreactor (MBBR), Hydroxyl Systems). The MBBR enables Newstream to treat waste streams with high biological oxygen demand (BOD) by converting contaminants into organic mass and gases.

Every Biofilm carrier provides an active surface area sustaining heterotrophic and autotrophic bacteria within protected cells. This high-density population of bacteria achieves high-rate biodegradation within the system, which provides higher productivity and greater adaptability to varying influent characteristics than most other biological systems in use today. |
The system operates 24x7, treating up to 35 GPM of wastewater (50,000 gallons per day).
The system not only improves effluent water quality but also dramatically expands the range of waste streams Newstream can accept, including those with high strength organics. It will also allow us to handle residuals from future recycling operations such as gasoline, glycol, and specification used oil recovery.
After leaving the bioreactor system, the water passes through a sampling station. The effluent may be discharged from the plant or returned to the EQ tanks for further processing.
