BACTERIA SUPPORT MATERIAL

摘要

The invention relates to composite material which consists of grains of a non-metal inorganic material and plastic particles. The composite material is particularly suitable as a support material for bacteria for use in purification plants. Said composite material is characterised in that bacteria can settle on a large surface thereof, and that the density thereof makes it suspendable in the medium present in the purification plant. Another advantage of the inventive composite material is that adhesive sludge and saturated bacteria can arise from the surface thereof due to the special surface structure thereof, thus enabling the material to regenerate.
