Hollow fiber MBR membrane

imemflo Hollow fibre Membrane is one of the three major types of membrane bioreactor technology. It comprises of straw like vertical fibre bundles where the liquid flows out-to-in due to suction (permeate) pump attached to both the ends of fibre bundle. Fibres are usually provided with some slack, to allow them to move laterally in the flow of air bubbles, which also air lifts the sludge through the fibre bundle surface.

Hollow fibre membranes are used almost exclusively for Submerged MBRs, both for industrial and municipal applications, where they are often favoured for larger installations on the basis of their lower membrane aeration energy demand.
