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...
