Plastic media BIOFILL® type C & CT

The BIOFILL® type C is the latter and better product designed by technicians specialized in biological treatments of fix biomass, in collaboration with the Polytechnic University of Catalonia and the CSIC. The filling is designed in order to contain a large quantity of biomass in its cavities and increase significantly the performance of the treatment where it is to be put, either aerobic or anaerobic.

It is produced in two versions:

  • type C, with density under 1
  • type CT, with density over 1

Its areas of application are many, covering mobile beds for the ampliation of wastewater treatment plants (either urban or industrial), agriculture wastewater treatment plants (collector and packaging plants for legumes, tubers, vegetables and fruits) and aquaculture (fish farming in general). In this range we also include the regeneration of lagoons, rivers and subterranean waters, anaerobic treatments and others.
