SBR Tanks

The AquaSBR sequencing batch reactor system features time-managed operation and control of aerobic, anoxic and anaerobic processes within each reactor including equalization and clarification. The AquaSBR system utilizes five basic phases of operation to meet advanced wastewater treatment objectives. These five phases include Mix-Fill, React Fill, React, Settle, and Decant/Sludge Wasting. The duration of any particular phase may be based upon specific waste characteristics and/or effluent objectives. The New Freedom Wastewater Treatment Plant utilizes a three-basin configuration, each operating independently of each other. The effluent which is discharged into the South Branch of the Codorus Creek is well below the limits set by the PA Department of Environmental Protection.
