BioKube wastewater treatment systems

COMPACT, MODULAR AND EFFICIENT.

Fixed Aerated Submerged BioMembrane
Technology ( FAST ) wastewater systems.

Many sizes of wastewater systems.

BioKube develops, manufactures and sells systems

for biological cleaning of sewage water using fixed
aerated submerged blocks technology.
Extensive research have been carried out where all
blowers, circulation, volume, optimum thickness of
biological growth / membrane etc in the system are
optimized towards giving the bacteria optimum
living condition, thus maximizing the cleaning
efficiency yet saving the usage of space.
All BioKube system is 100% biological cleaning of
wastewater using only natures existing bacteria
within the wastewater; no foreign or additional
bacteria or enzymes or chemicals are added to the
treatment system.

The systems range in size from single household

units (2m3/day) up to systems cleaning 2,000
m3/day. BioKube systems can be delivered fully
configured, to meet the customers requirement and
ready to install at customer site.
Protect the environment recycle and reuse
Treated sewage water can be recycled and reused
either for irrigation or secondary usage like flushing
of toilets, watering plants, landscaping and cleaning
of general areas etc. This will eliminate the need for
potable water for these activities, which in turn will
give reduction of around 40-45% of water
consumption. End user will lower their water bill,
conserve resources whilst reducing pollution and
play our part in protecting the mother earth.

How do we do it?
1. Inlet of sewage water from manhole or septic
tank.
2. Gray and black water is pumped from buffer
tank into the 1st chamber. Biological degradation of
organic matter by bacteria, then gravitates to the
2nd chamber.
3. Further removal of organic matter by bacterial
activities. Thinned down water now gravitates into
the third cleaning chamber for ammonia removal.
4. Nitrification of ammonia by bacteria under
aerobic condition. By now water will be having
BOD < 10mg/L COD <50mg/L, equal to Std A.
5. The sludge which settles in each cleaning section
is pumped back into the pre-settlement tank to
remove smell from H2S formation.
6. The treated water is discharged to a collection
tank for secondary usage e.g it can be used for
toilet flushing, irrigation, watering the gardens etc.
It is similar to RAINWATER HARVESTING but with
guaranteed yield typically 80-85% of sewage
water
will
be
available
for
reuse.

Single House systems.

BioKube Pluto, Venus and Mars systems
Single house systems.
BioKube systems can fulfill any requirements.
BioKube small standard systems clean sewage
water for from 5 to 30 persons. We offer small
systems for single houses or bungalows ranging
from 5 PE, 10 PE, 15 PE, 20 PE and 30 PE
systems.
BioKube Pluto ( 110cm, H 1400cm 5PE) built
for cleaning requirements of COD < 125 mg/l
and BOD < 25 mg/l is about half the size of a
BioKube Venus ( 120cm, H 1900cm 5PE) built
for cleaning requirements of COD < 50 mg/l and
BOD < 10 mg/l.

With our modular design all BioKube systems

can be delivered to fulfill any requirements.
These possibilities include only reduction of
organic material, reduction of NH4, reduction of
phosphate, removal of total nitrogen, removal
and elimination of E-coli including use of UV
lighting or Ozone.
We are specialists and we can do it!

Remote surveillance via GSM.

BioKube systems for are delivered completely

ready to install. Connect the pipes and power and
the system is in operation. System can be install
above ground or underground.

BioKube systems can be

equipped with remote
surveillance over the GSM
network. And the systems
can be delivered with
double water pumps and
air blowers that run
alternatively. They can be
reset over the GSM
network if one pump or
blower fails so the system
runs on only one. This
gives a very high rate of
stability.

Modular design
Being modular, it can be arranged and organized
to fit the odd land area, thus maximizing space
for other prime and valuable development.

50% reduction of land requirement compared to

conventional STP
Compared to similar-sized conventional STP, less
land is needed to built the Jupiter system. For
example, a 600PE system requiring less than
400sq meter (including setback).
Low on maintenance and operation cost.
One of the big advantages of a BioKube system is
that it is very maintenance-friendly. There are
few mechanical parts that can fail and they are all
delivered from first class manufacturer
guaranteeing long service life.

Large systems as Plug and Play.

How big a system can you buy?

BioKube also offers our largest systems as plug

and play waste water plant solutions.
These systems are delivered with only the
active cleaning units whilst other components
are built on-site.

The necessary size of the tanks is roughly

twice the size of the daily amount of sewage
water to be cleaned. This volume allows 36
hours retention time for the sewage water in
the cleaning unit plus room for the pre-cleaning
unit and the necessary sludge handling system.

Keeping the total cost down.

Since the cleaning of sewage water with the
BioKube-system is performed by natural
bacteria living on submerged aerated filters (the
BioBlocks) it is much more cost-effective to
deliver only the active cleaning unit (the
BioReactors) and install these in RC tank.
With BioKube BioReactor systems, you also
to the maximum extent use labor. This keeps
the total cost down.

The biggest BioReactor BioKube deliver is the

BioReactor 150. Each of these units will clean
150 m3 / day. How many BioReactors you need
depends on the amount of wastewater and the
cleaning requirements. We are happy to discuss
your exact requirement.
