Bioreactor (MBR) technology to treat wastewater for
reuse purposes. SUEZ’s ZeeWeed* 500D MBR solution
was suggested because it can operate with the
membranes directly in the bioreactor tank to
drastically reduce the required plant footprint and
eliminate the need for secondary clarifiers.
The effluent from the MBR process is then fed into a
reverse osmosis (RO) system and treated further for
reuse. The RO system used to treat the MBR permeate

SUEZ’s solution for this company provided
treated water as per standards of the company and
enabled the treated wastewater to be reused in
several process such as for cooling tower make- up
(Soft Water Plant).
