Abstract

Sequencing batch reactor (SBR) is a fill-and-draw activated sludge system. It is known for its flexibility to meet a wide range of wastewater treatment needs compared with the continuous flow activated sludge system. Nitrogen and lor phosphorus removal in addition to BOD is possible in SBR if operation conditions are properly modified to introduce aerobic, anoxic and anaerobic reactions into a time schedule of batch cycles. The purpose of this work is to overview the recent developments in SBR technology, its operational modes and treatment performances on organic carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus removal for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment.
