Miracel© (Modular / Expandable Waste Water Plants)
Minimum Electricity Consumption, Space-Saving
Miracell® is a fully automatic wastewater treatment system especially designed for domestic wastewater treatment applications in capacities ranging from 50 people to 30.000 people. Representing the ultimate in wastewater treatment systems, Miranda consumes as little as one fifth of the electricity and requires as little as one third of the space of its competitors based on the activated sludge technology.
Biodisk Technology
The operating principle of the Miracell® wastewater treatment system is based on the Rotating Biological Contactor (RBC) technology.
Rotating Biological Contactor (RBC)
Disks are connected to a shaft are rotated at a very low speed by means of a motor which is equipped with a reduction gear. The system is designed such that 40 % of the disks remain in the wastewater. Disks which first submerge in the wastewater are then contacted with air. As a result of this repetitive process, organisms accumulate on the disks in the course of time. These organisms receive necessary oxygen from the air during rotation of the disks, consume the pollutants existing in the wastewater, and convert them into carbon dioxide and water in a totally natural way.
Miracell® which operates on the RBC principle has many advantages to other package wastewater systems based on the activated sludge principle.
In package wastewater systems which are based on the conventional activated sludge principle, a constant flow of air needs to be a pumped through aerators by blowers in order to stimulate bacterial growth whereas in the Miracell® System, the bacteria are able to receive the necessary air naturally through the atmosphere. Thanks to this basic difference in the operating principle and due to the fact that the system only requires a small motor to drive it, Miracell® operates silently while consuming much less energy than its competitors.
50-2,000 Person Service Capacity
Miracell® systems are fabricated from fiber reinforced polyester which eliminates any concerns for deterioration from the corrosive effects of alkali maters in the system and the wear-down effect of harsh environmental conditions including Ultraviolet rays. Periodic painting and maintenance which are common concerns for systems manufactured from steel are not applicable for the Miracell® The discs in the system are also made of corrosion-proof polyethylene which is a preferred material in the chemical industry for storage of harsh chemicals. Together, these advantages combine to make Miracell® a virtually indestructible treatment plant with little or no maintenance problems.
Water in its Purest Form
Miracell® eliminates the problem of foam formation arising from high turbulence and/or bubbling due to the aeration process, which is especially encountered in wastewater that contain dissolving substances. Miracell® system is also much more resistant to unexpected circumstances such as short or long-term power interruptions, shock organic loading and sudden increases or decreases in the incoming water flow-rate.
