Premium MBBR Media & Biofilm Carrier Solutions for Industrial & Municipal Wastewater
Optimize your Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) and Integrated Fixed-film Activated Sludge (IFAS) systems with HNS Watertech’s high-performance bio-media.
As a leading MBBR media manufacturer, HNS Watertech provides advanced Plastic Bio Filter Media designed to maximize nitrogen removal and BOD reduction. Our MBBR Bio Carrier is the heart of modern biological treatment, offering a scalable solution for Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) upgrades and Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS).
Why HNS Watertech MBBR Filter Media?
- 100% Virgin HDPE Material: Unlike low-cost suppliers, we use zero recycled fillers, ensuring our Moving Bed Biofilm Media remains durable for 15+ years without breaking.
- High Effective Specific Surface Area: Our engineered shapes provide maximum protected surface area ($m^2/m^3$) for nitrifying bacteria attachment.
- Advanced Fluidization: Our media’s density ($0.94-0.96 g/cm3) is precision-tuned for optimal suspension and movement, reducing energy consumption in aeration systems.
- Rapid Start-up: The rough surface morphology facilitates fast biofilm development, reaching full capacity in half the time of standard carriers.

Question and Answer
Q: What is the best material for MBBR media? A: 100% Virgin HDPE is the industry gold standard due to its chemical resistance, density stability, and lifespan. Avoid UV-degradable recycled materials.
Q: How do you calculate the required MBBR media quantity? A: Quantity depends on the Organic Loading Rate (OLR) and Nitrogen Loading. HNS Watertech provides free engineering calculations based on your influent BOD/COD/NH3-N levels.
Q: Can MBBR media be used in existing aeration tanks? A: Yes! Our media is designed for WWTP retrofitting, allowing you to increase capacity by up to 200% using your current footprint.
