  • How we do it

    Biological treatment

    The Siltbuster range of Moving Bed Biofilm Reactors (MBBR) is designed to provide a packaged, plug-and-play aerobic biological treatment system that is easy to operate and maintain.

    Based on established fixed-film biological treatment, our MBBR uses media with a specific area of up to 800 m²/m³, providing a substantially greater treatment capacity – up to twice the capacity – within the same footprint when compared with traditional mobile treatment solutions, such as Submerged Aerated Filters (SAFs).

  • How we do it

    Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF)

    Siltbuster operates the largest and most varied fleet of Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) units within the UK, with rapid mobilisation and installation, due to off-site manufacturing and extensive pre-testing before any deployment.

    Our responsiveness and flexibility help our customers with seasonal peaks in demand, planned and emergency works upgrades, contingency planning, temporary treatment, and site resilience works.

    All our systems are supplied pre-packaged with a white-water system that does not require compressed air, reducing power consumption/running costs, saving space, and reducing noise.

  • How we do it

    Chemical dosing

    Siltbuster’s market-leading Chemical Dosing Systems and Mix Tanks are engineered to tackle even the most complex water treatment challenges. From pH correction and metal precipitation to coagulation and flocculation, our modular systems deliver controlled, automated chemical treatment that ensures compliance with the most stringent discharge standards.

    Available in a range of sizes and configurations, our dosing and mixing solutions are tailored to site-specific needs and seamlessly integrate with settlement or DAF systems. Backed by in-house lab analysis and expert guidance, we help you achieve optimal performance — safely, efficiently, and with confidence.
