Conventional Retrofit

Replace Clarifiers & Filters with a Single Membrane Step

Many municipal treatment plants rely on conventional activated sludge processes that are reaching end-of-life or can no longer meet evolving regulatory requirements. FibrePlate MBR technology provides a direct upgrade path, replacing aging clarifiers and tertiary filters with a single, high-performance membrane step that dramatically improves effluent quality.

Converting a conventional activated sludge plant to MBR operation with FibrePlate membranes significantly reduces the treatment footprint while achieving effluent quality suitable for reuse applications. The membrane barrier eliminates the variability inherent in gravity settling, delivering consistent performance regardless of influent fluctuations or biological upsets.

Fibracast provides comprehensive retrofit engineering support, from process modeling and membrane sizing through to installation supervision and operator training. Each retrofit project is tailored to the specific plant configuration, flow characteristics, and regulatory framework to ensure optimal performance from day one.
