Fluence offers a range of wastewater treatment solutions utilizing advanced technologies and over 30 years of experience. Their portfolio includes both decentralized and centralized treatment options for municipal, commercial, and industrial applications.
A key technology is their membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR), which provides highly efficient nutrient removal while using up to 90% less energy than traditional aeration methods. MABR is available in containerized Aspiral units for small-scale applications, or as SUBRE upgrades for existing plants.
Other technologies include waste-to-energy systems using anaerobic digestion, aerobic biological treatment, dissolved air flotation, and physico-chemical processes. Fluence also offers solutions for water reuse and sludge treatment.
Their modular, containerized systems like Aspiral and Tipton Series allow for quick deployment of decentralized treatment. These package plants can treat flows from 20 m3/day up to 7,570 m3/day.
For industrial clients, Fluence provides customized solutions for high-COD wastewaters from sectors like food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and oil & gas. Their systems incorporate smart controls and remote monitoring capabilities.
Overall, Fluence focuses on sustainable, energy-efficient wastewater treatment using innovative technologies like MABR. Their modular approach enables scalable solutions adaptable to diverse applications and locations worldwide.
