Today, with more than 200 municipal installations, the Kaldnes™ process is one of the most well documented biological solutions for treatment of municipal wastewater. Based on AnoxKaldnes very flexible and versatile MBBR tech- nology, the Kaldnes™ biofilm process can be designed for different municipal applications and levels of treatment. As for example, BOD removal can be achieved in a simple high-rate Kaldnes™ process in one or two stages, while far reaching nitrogen removal can be performed in multi-reactor systems comprising stages for pre-denitrification, BOD-remov- al, nitrification and post-denitrification. Utilization of different MBBRs with specialized and highly active micro-organisms is the key to the high efficiency and compactness of the Kaldnes™ process. As the Kaldnes™ biofilm process is operated without sludge recycle, only excess biomass formed in the process has to be separated in the following separation unit. This means the choice of separation is very flexible and compact units such as Actiflo™ or dissolved air flotation can be used to create a totally very compact plant.
