When treatment capacity is suddenly lost — an equipment failure, a process upset, or an unexpected load — the priority is to restore compliant treatment fast. A rental MBBR can be mobilised as a containerized unit and commissioned on site to provide interim biological treatment while the permanent plant is repaired or reinforced.
Interim treatment, fast
Because rental units are pre-built and relocatable, they are suited to situations where time matters. The unit provides fixed-film treatment that tolerates load variation, buying time to fix the root cause without breaching discharge limits. When the permanent plant is back in service, the unit is removed.
Response depends on availability and site conditions; the specifics are agreed per situation. Where the gap is planned rather than sudden — for example during a rebuild — the plant-upgrade rental route applies.
