TITAN MBR MEM-FRAME™

Product catalog summary

Overview of TITAN MBR MEM-FRAME™
The TITAN MBR MEM-FRAME™ is an advanced membrane bioreactor technology designed by Smith & Loveless Inc. It offers superior effluent quality and supports water reuse, achieving complete nitrification without the need for permeate vacuum pumps or recycling between aeration and membrane zones. The system is engineered for both new constructions and retrofitting existing tanks with side wall heights of 11’-6” (3.5 m) or more.

Key Features

Pre-assembled in a quality-controlled factory.
Designed for easy insertion into concrete aeration basins.
Utilizes robust flat-plate membranes for high permeability and consistent flux.
Allows for clean-in-place maintenance without plant interruption.
Membrane modules are removable without draining the tank.

Sizing Data
The system is available in various models with different flow capacities, ranging from 25,000 gpd (95 cmd) to 76,000 gpd (285 cmd) for custom design flow, and up to 145,000 gpd (545 cmd) with the TITAN MBR MEM-FRAME™.

Membrane Data

Design Flux: 13 gpd/sf (22 lmh).
Pore Sizing: 0.08 microns.
Transmembrane Pressure: 0.50 - 2.00 psi.
Cleaning: Semi-annual in-tank cleaning.

Advantages Over Alternative Designs

Durable composition using PVDF and PET materials.
Flat-plate design prevents clogs and facilitates effective air scouring.
More economical cleaning method with Clean in Place (CIP), reducing costs and chemical usage.

Components Provided

Membrane modules.
Coarse bubble diffusers.
Ball valves, controls, and instrumentation.
Piping, framework, blowers, and chemical clean-in-place systems.
