ESTCP Final Report - Anaerobic Membrane Bioreactor (AnMBR) for Sustainable Wastewater Treatment. United States Department of Defense (DoD) Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP), Alexandria, VA, 2019.

Impact/Purpose:

ESTCP Project Number ER-201434 final report. This report will inform our understanding of water reuse technology alongside other technology that has been tested at Riley and elsewhere such as the San Fran work.

Description:

The primary objective of this pilot-scale project was to demonstrate and validate anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) technology for domestic wastewater treatment. Specific objectives associated with this project included: 1) demonstrate the effectiveness of AnMBR at treating screened domestic wastewater at temperatures above 10°C to produce high-quality, re-usable water; 2) demonstrate that AnMBR technology for domestic wastewater treatment can be operated in an energy-neutral manner; 3) compare cost and performance of gas-sparged and granular activated carbon(GAC)-fluidized AnMBRs to conventional aerobic wastewater treatment systems; and 4) conduct a simplified lifecycle assessment of the technology in comparison to conventional technologies.
