GE Power & Water

Product catalog summary

Introduction
GE Power & Water introduces an innovative low energy advanced primary treatment system for Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) technology, aimed at reducing primary treatment equipment and saving 20% to 40% in costs. This system extends membrane life through enhanced influent solids screening and combines primary solids separation, sludge thickening, and dewatering in one compact step.

Key Features

Simplified Design: Achieves advanced primary treatment in as little as 1/10th the footprint of a conventional system.
Cost Savings: Reduces energy for biological treatment by 25% and enables energy recovery.
Guaranteed Reliability: High removal of Total Suspended Solids (TSS) and Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) reduces organic load to biological treatment.

LEAPprimary System
LEAPprimary is an advanced primary treatment system that combines separation, thickening, and dewatering of primary solids in a single compact unit. It performs the same function as a primary clarifier and fine screen in a typical MBR plant, reducing organic load and energy consumption while extending ZeeWeed membrane life.

Performance and Benefits

High removal rates of TSS (50% to 70%) and BOD (25% to 40%).
Compact design reduces plant footprint and capital cost.
Removed solids can be dewatered to 20% to 30% dry matter, minimizing handling costs.

Case Study: Southern Ontario Facility
An MBR facility in Southern Ontario replaced its conventional fine screen with a LEAPprimary system. The system significantly improved membrane performance by reducing trash content and enhancing TSS and BOD removal, leading to lower energy demand and simplified operation.

Case Studies Facility in Southern Ontario, Canada An existing MBR facility in Southern Ontario was built with a conventional 2 mm fine screen as primary treatment. In February 2013 the fine screen was replaced with a LEAPprimary system to demonstrate the impact that the LEAPprimary technology would have upon mixed liquor characteristics and ZeeWeed membrane performance. The LEAPprimary system proved to have a positive impact on the membrane performance by enhancing the removal of particulate material from the wastewater prior to the MBR. Trash content (material in the mixed liquor greater than...
