Sobelgra (Belgium)Sobelgra (Belgium)

• Malting industry

• Largest industrial MBR in Belgium




ProblemProblem

• Expansion of production capacity from 110,000 m3/year to 250,000 m3/year

• Existing conventional WWTP had to be expanded

• Lack of space (harbor of Antwerp)

GoalGoal

• Using the existing infrastructure to double wastewater treatment capacity

• Water reuse
