Luxcare NiSBRa process

NISBRA is an acronym for Nitrogen converting Sequencing Batch Reactor - Advance.
The NISBRA process is preformed in at SBR activated sludge system, where all
processes are performed in one single reactor.
Worldwide there are several thousand SBR plants in operation, purifying domestic and
industrial wastewater.

Advantage
The major advantage of the NISBRA process is, that typical operation problem as sludge
bulking and unstable chlorination is significant reduces due to the advance nitrogen
conversion in the NiSBRa process. The NISBRA process also offers a higher operation
stability, and there by better performance. In industrial and domestic applications, the
NISBRA process has the potential of using new energy saving processes, with a reduced
demand of energy up to 25%, saving aeration capacity and electricity.

Flexibility
Operations of Luxcare NISBRA process are adjustable at any time, in order to maintain
complete balance between wastewater load and the duration of each sequence in the
operating cycle.
In case of load increase after construction, the capacity of an established SBR wastewater
treatment plant can easily be increased, by placing more reactors parallel with the reactors
already in operation.

Upgrading
Luxcare NISBRA process is designed for removal of organic matter and in the same time
converting nitrogen. They have a built-in possibility for subsequent improvement in order
to obtain total nitrogen and phosphorous removal even in case of stringent discharge
demands.

Reliability
Flushed-out sludge from the tank due to hydraulic overload of the sedimentation process is
not a problem. As no inlet and outlet takes place during sedimentation, and the outlet is
effectuated without disturbance of the underlying sludge layer the flushed-out sludge does
not exist.
Even in cases where there are major variations of wastewater load, the reliability of the
Luxcare NISBRA is maintained with a high stability of purification.

Operation
The maintenance of the NISBRA process plant is minimal, as the NISBRA process
does not use any mechanical or electrical parts in the process volume.

Luxcare SBR Integrated Solutions

Luxcare provides the industry with
integrated wastewater treatment
solutions. Luxcares NISBRA process
provide the industry with a energy
saving wastewater treatment. Sludge
bulking and unsteady performance is
avoided by the use of the NISBRA
process.
* Optimise existing processes
* Implement cleaner technology
* Reuse valuable side products
* SBR biological treatment of nonreusable waste
Through this Luxcare tailors the best and most cost-effective solution for the individual
costumer. The high flexibility of Luxcare SBR Integrated Solutions makes it easy to adjust
to changes in wastewater composition and load.
A general concept for the industry, and
particularly the food industry, is to reduce the
organic load before biological treatment. This
will significantly reduce investment and running
costs for the costumer.

Application
Luxcare SBR Integrated Solutions are suitable for the industry with a large wastewater
flow, such as:
*
*
*
*
*

Slaughterhouses
Dairies
Basic Fruit Industries
Breweries
Rubber companies

Technical Data

Luxcare SBR Control Manager

Luxcare SBR Systems are delivered with a control unit offering a variety of features.
Luxcare Control Manager is adjustable to different conditions, depending on the standard
demands of the effluent, the size of the plant
and the composition of the wastewater.
Features as remote access to the Control
Manager makes daily assistance available
for our costumers. Logging of data can be
conducted by conventional data logger or by
external server through an online Internet
connection.

Application
The CM model is the basic Luxcare Control
Manager, operating the SBR plant in a standard
operation schedule. The operator can adjust the
schedule according to changes in wastewater
load. The design of Luxcare Control Manager
makes the daily operation easy and safe. For
smaller domestic wastewater systems, for
example condominiums, hotels or hospitals, the
CM model will fulfil all necessary demands.

If new requirements for the effluent involve

improvements and changes in the Control Manager, the
CM model can be modified with a GSM modem and a
data logger system. This will upgrade the system and
give the opportunity for a daily supervision from
Luxcares process engineers. Luxcare Control Manager
can be delivered with a connection directly to the
Internet, and the data logger can be emptied through the
GSM modem.
Large domestic wastewater and many industrial
wastewater treatment systems will benefit from
expansion of the CM model.

Luxcare Ph-Decanter
Luxcare Ph-Decanter is an advanced decanter, developed for optimising the settling and
decanting phase of Luxcares advance NISBRA process.
The unique design of the inlet
devise enables treated water to be
decanted from the SBR system
without drawing flooded or settled
material. The hydraulic conditions
for the decanter offer a fast
decanting period resulting in overall
cost savings.
Luxcare has two different types of
decanters, one for small systems
and one for large systems.

Application
Luxcare Ph-Decanter is used in traditional wastewater treatment for:
* New medium and large Luxcare SBR systems.
* Creation of higher capacity in existing SBR systems.
* Improvement of old SBR systems or rebuilding/conversion of old conventional systems
to Luxcare SBR systems.
Luxcare Ph-Decanter is used in industrial
wastewater treatment for:
* New Luxcare SBR systems for the industry.
* Improvement of existing treatment for
Luxcare SBR systems.
