Applications
Upgrading Existing Rock
Trickling Filters
MARPAK MXF 4800 with its 60° cross fluted geometry and high surface and void ratio is ideal for upgrading the performance of existing rock trickling filters.
With a surface area and void ratio more than three times greater than rock, upgrading with MARPAK MXF 4800 can more than double the organic capacity and improve effluent quality of an existing trickling filter. A significant amount of nitrification can also be achieved, depending on the organic loading.
Unlike rock or random plastic media, MARPAK MXF 4800 provides continuous and uniform horizontal redistribution of air and water, with no
MARPAK MXF 4800 modules can be placed directly on rows of supports (Fig.
