Meet Biothane® High-Rate Anaerobic Treatment 

Transforming organic pollutants into renewable energy.

TECHNOLOGY INFORMATION

About Biothane® High-Rate Anaerobic Treatment 

Biothane® High-Rate Anaerobic Digestion is a cutting-edge technology that revolutionizes how we manage organic wastewater. This innovative process harnesses the power of anaerobic digestion, a natural biological process where microorganisms break down organic matter in the absence of oxygen. This system is an efficient and sustainable solution for converting a wide range of organic waste streams into valuable biogas.

High-Performance Wastewater Technology to Protect the Environment

Through advanced engineering and optimized process control, Biothane High Rate Anaerobic Digestion achieves significantly higher organic loading rates and shorter retention times compared to conventional systems. This translates into a more compact footprint, increased throughput, and enhanced operational efficiency, making it an attractive option for treating for pollution, while reducing a site's environmental footprint.

Features and Benefits of the Biothane High-Rate Anaerobic Treatment Technology

Small Footprint
Compared to low-rate wastewater or aerobic systems, the footprint for these systems can be built significantly smaller

Cost Effective
This biological wastewater technology is the most cost-effective solution to remove soluble COD from wastewater. Lower energy requirements, reduced sludge production, and smaller footprints result in lower CAPEX and OPEX costs.

Energy Efficient
The anaerobic system does not require the addition of air / oxygen into the reactor, resulting in significantly less energy from aerobic treatment. 

Produce Green Energy (Biogas)
The natural process of anaerobic digestion produces a byproduct of biogas, which can be used onsite as a renewable energy source. 
 
Reduced Sludge Production
The system produces 6-10x less sludge when compared to traditional aerobic systems. This 
 
Proven
These systems have been in operation for more than 50 years and there are more than 600 references globally.
