"Our patented fixed film process virtually eliminates sludge!"


A Patented Wastewater Treatment Technology

The Hans BioShaft System Process is an Advanced (MBBR) process developed and patented by Dr. Hans Badreddine, a former professor of industrial chemicals at Aachen University, Germany.


On February 10, 2009. BioShaft received the United States Patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office for BioShaft wastewater treatment plant and method. The patent number is 7,488,413. BioShaft also owns the United Kingdom patent number:GB2390365 for BioShaft wastewater treatment plant and method.

Some unique benefits include:

Minimal Sludge: Conventional Wastewater treatment produces a byproduct called "Sludge". First this Sludge has to be treated and then it must be hauled off & disposed of. A BioShaft plant produces up to 95% less sludge.

Minimal Footprint: The BioShaft accelerates the process and therefore a BioShaft Plant does not have to be as large as an Active Sludge Plant.

Minimal Odor: The amount of odor produced by the system is negligible, therefore our plants can be built in a much closer proximity to residential housing developments.

Lower Initial Investment: It costs less to manufacture.

Lower Operational Costs: It takes less personnel to operate.

Lower Energy Costs: Energy costs are drastically reduced due to the minimal amount of electromagnetic parts.

Lower Maintenance Costs: The reduced amount of electromagnetic parts also drastically lowers the cost of maintenance.
