high-quality effluent. The effluent is suitable for discharge within DWS limits or can be economically upgraded for reuse thereby increasing investment returns.
Compact Design:
To save space and reduce construction costs, EcoSBR treatment takes place in a single chamber with equalisation, aeration, and clarification in a single tank.
Automated Operation:
EcoSBR Compact and Classic plants require minimal human intervention, as they can be operated and maintained by unskilled personnel.
Cost-Effective:
EcoSBR systems are more cost-effective to operate and maintain than traditional systems because:

- No expensive skilled personnel required
- Less electricity is used due to greater plant efficiency, higher oxygen transfer rates, and unique features such as water transfer by airlift and automatic switching to EcoSave mode in low inflow conditions
Advanced Airlift Technology:
A key innovation within our EcoSBR systems is the integration of advanced airlift technology, providing distinct operational and cost benefits.
No Moving Mechanical Parts:
Eliminates pump-related clogging, resulting in exceptional durability with minimal maintenance.
Energy Efficiency:
Wastewater transfer by airlift is more energy efficient, leading to reduced energy costs.
Improved Safety:
No electrical connections are required in the wastewater, enhancing operational safety.
Less Sludge
The enhanced biological digestion process with Extended Solids Retention Time (SRT), results in substantially lower sludge production with reduced sludge disposal costs and extended de-sludging intervals of between 6 to 18 months.
Versatile:
EcoSBR can cope with shock loads and treat a wider range of wastewaters than traditional wastewater treatment systems.
Efficient:
EcoSBR systems are more efficient at removing pollutants than traditional plants as the batch process allows for better control over the treatment phases, leading to more effective removal of organic matter, nitrogen, and phosphorus.
Flexible:
Our EcoSBR solutions cater to various treatment capacities, from small households to large residential estates and industrial applications.
Remote Monitoring, Control & Data Logging:
Experience total peace of mind with our advanced Remote Monitoring, Control, and Data Logging upgrade for EcoSBR Classic and BNR treatment plants. Strategically placed sensors continuously monitor critical processes and components, delivering real-time insights and early warnings to prevent issues before they occur. In the event of a failure, instant alerts keep you informed—no matter where you are. Additionally, comprehensive data logging captures and stores operational data over time, enabling performance analysis, trend tracking, and regulatory reporting. This smart solution ensures optimal performance, reliability, and full visibility into your system’s operation.

Key Advantages of the EcoSBR-BNR Process:
- Chemical-Free Nutrient Removal: EcoSBR-BNR achieves comprehensive biological removal of critical nutrients like ammonia and phosphorus directly within the main treatment process. This eliminates the need for costly chemical dosing or separate treatment units, simplifying your operations and significantly reducing ongoing chemical expenses.
- Compact Footprint from Rapid AGS Settling: A standout feature of Aerobic Granular Sludge is its dense granules, which settle exceptionally fast – often within minutes. This drastically shortens SBR cycle times, boosting the plant’s overall treatment capacity and the smaller footprint (m3/KLD processed) improves the investment returns of the plant.
- Reduced Aeration & Operational Costs: The AGS process has a markedly lower aeration demand compared to traditional aerobic systems (e.g., ASP, MBBR, MBR). This reduction means blowers operate for shorter durations, leading to decreased energy costs and operational savings from reduced running times.
- Intelligent Automation & Process Adaptability: Benefit from fully automated operations with intelligent control systems that seamlessly adapt treatment processes in real-time. This responsive system adjusts to fluctuations in incoming wastewater characteristics, ensuring consistent, optimal performance under varying conditions.
- Modular Design for Scalability & Resilience: EcoSBR-BNR plants feature a smart modular design, often incorporating multiple reactor modules which are intelligently managed in parallel through a single control unit. This approach ensures high operational resilience, optimised system performance, and straightforward scalability by adding additional reactor modules for future growth or changing needs.
Ideal for Larger Capacities: The EcoSBR-BNR process is the premier solution for larger-scale sewage treatment plants, engineered to deliver exceptional performance and unwavering reliability for capacities ranging from 300 kL/day up to 5 MLD (Megalitres per Day).
Jäger ShearCon® – Elevating IFAS to the Next Level
The patented ShearCon® process redefines Integrated Fixed-Film Activated Sludge (IFAS) technology. By merging the proven CLERATEC® system with Jaeger Umwelt-Technik’s innovative aeration technology, ShearCon® delivers chemical-free, high-performance biomass—enabling up to 50% plant capacity expansion without the need for additional tanks and allowing for more compact designs in new installations.
Key Benefits of the ShearCon® Process
🌱 Enhanced Biodiversity
The unique BioCurlz media offers a large surface area that promotes the growth of diverse microorganisms. This environment favours slow-growing nitrifiers—essential for effective nitrogen removal—over faster-growing carbon-degrading species.
⚡ Superior Nitrification Rates
ShearCon® can double the nitrification rate compared to conventional systems, significantly boosting treatment efficiency.
💧 Improved Sludge Settling
With a Sludge Volume Index (SVI) typically between 60–85 mL/g, ShearCon® outperforms traditional municipal systems, which average around 120 mL/g—resulting in better sludge compaction and handling.
🔬 High Biomass Concentration
Efficient solid-liquid separation allows for MLSS concentrations up to twice the conventional limit, ensuring stable and robust treatment performance.
🌊 Cleaner Effluent, Lower Environmental Impact
The system enhances the removal of COD, BOD, and NH₄-N, delivering higher effluent quality and reducing the risk of suspended solids—minimizing environmental impact.
🧩 Modular & Maintainable Design
CLEARTEC® modules are easy to install and maintain. Individual modules can be removed during operation for inspection or servicing, offering unmatched flexibility.
🌀 Self-Cleaning, Clog-Resistant Media
The flexible BioCurlz media resists clogging and fouling, with a natural self-cleaning action that reduces maintenance and ensures long-term reliability.
CLEARTEC® Biocurlz consist of three-dimensional cords. The inner cords are made of polypropylene (PP). Connected to this are the loops or growth media which are polyvinylidene chloride (PVdC). The unique spiral movement of the loops is self-cleaning, as it dislodges heavier sludge particles that pass into the suspension and continue to participate in the cleaning process.
INCREASE THE TREATMENT CAPACITY AND WASTEWATER QUALITY WITHOUT ADDITIONAL CONSTRUCTION COSTS! The Jäger ShearCon process® is an innovative system that has increased treatment capacity while significantly improving wastewater quality, nitrification rate, and sludge settleability without the need for infrastructure expansion or additional construction.
