Product Description
Porous polymer carriers is made of polyurethane and other polymer composite, unlike ordinary polyurethane sponge carriers, it has water absorption and is a gel like porous body, referred to as PPC carrier. It is a kind of aerobic biological carrier which provides growth space for microorganisms. PPC carrier has a unique wall structure, increases the specific surface area of the carrier, enhances the wear resistance of the carrier and prolongs its service life. It has good hydrophilicity, good elasticity and easy attachment and biofilm formation. At the same time, the high porosity ensures the smooth mass transfer inside and outside the carrier, and provides an excellent environment for the growth of microorganisms..
Product Advantage

- MBBR systems.
- Recirculating aquaculture system (RAS)
- Treatmentand transformation of municipal and industrial wastewater
- Integrated sewage treatment equipment/purification tank
- Urban black and smelly rivers and lake management
- Biological deodorization systems
Technical principle
Due to its structural characteristics, PPC fillers can mix and contact sewage, air and biofilm, and the bacteria can quickly settle in the carrier in large quantities, maintaining good activity and void variability, and during operation, the gas is in the Driven by the three-dimensional flow of sewage, they collide with each other and are continuously cut into smaller bubbles by the PPC filler in a peristaltic state, which increases the utilization rate of oxygen and reduces the amount of aeration. Therefore, it has the characteristics of strong ability to cut bubbles, large space volume utilization rate, and no dead space. In this form, pollutants are gradually degraded by microorganisms on the biofilm.
