Engineered to provide the simplest O&M of any MBR system, the\u00a0TITAN MBR\u00a0features compact, factoory-built and tested models that reduce field assembly, shorten installation time, and enable faster startup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each\u00a0TITAN MBR\u00a0system is built in the United States and comes equipped with epoxy and polyurethane-coated V-Crimp tankage, flat-plate submerged membrane modules, stainless steel internal components, prewired instrumentation, and\u00a0QUICKSMART\u00a0touchscreen PLC controls. The system offers robust design, smart automation, and cloud-based monitoring through\u00a0RemoteView\u00a0services, helping operators monitor and control system functions from anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n

Smith & Loveless Highlights the TITAN MBR\u00a0Packaged Wastewater Treatment System<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

With energy-efficient performance and no permeate pumps, the\u00a0TITAN MBR\u00a0reduces energy usage by up to 30%. The flat-plate PVDF+PET membranes are automatically cleaned in place typically twice per year with no need for removal. This in-place process lowers chemical use, minimizes downtime, and simplifies maintenance. The membranes also resist breakage and perform well even with stringy solids, offering longer life and lower fouling rates than other membrane types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system achieves superior effluent quality, with typical values of <3mg\/L BOD, <1mg\/L TSS, <0.2NTU turbidity, and <0.05mg\/L total phosphorus with optional process selections. The\u00a0TITAN MBR\u00a0meets California Title 22 standards for water reuse and includes automation features such as decanting, chemical cleaning, and nutrient removal via optional anoxic zones. Recycle control and aeration are also managed automatically for optimised performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed for flows from 5,000 gallons per day to 0.1MGD, the\u00a0TITAN MBR\u00a0is available with enhanced features including\u00a0OBEX\u00a0fine screening, separate blowers for airlifts and the MBR zone, odor control packages, stainless steel tankage, and skid-mounted chemical cleaning systems. Smart Wire Management minimises field wiring with factory-installed cable trays and instrumentation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
