Biofiltration* is a pollution control technique using a bioreactor that uses living things to process pollutants biologically.

Biofilter is a medium in which microorganisms attach and grow to form a biological layer called a biofilm.

The principle of clumping is almost the same as the working principle of coagulation & flocculation. However, biofiltration uses bacteria to accumulate waste, rather than chemicals in order to minimize the total sludge.

The first installation for wastewater treatment is the Biofiltration system.

Biofiltration requires only 2 days to be fully operational before connecting to the next process.

This is due to the time to grow aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. It will then run continuously with biological circulation.

Bio-Filter is used for initial processing for water treatment process, either WTP or WWTP.

This system we usually install as the initial stage of the water treatment process naturally which produce microorganisms or bacteria aerobe and anaerobe that can serve to eat impurities in water and make deposits.

Later on, the water can be processed in the next process either using filtration MBR (Membrane Bio- Reactor) called Ultra Filtration System and/or Reverse Osmosis System.
