What Does AFB Stand For?
AFB stands for Anaerobic Fluidized Bed
AFB, or Anaerobic Fluidized Bed, refers to a type of biological treatment process designed for the efficient degradation of organic matter in the absence of oxygen. This technology utilizes a bed of suspended particles that facilitate the growth of anaerobic microorganisms. As organic waste or substrate is introduced, these microorganisms degrade it, producing biogas as a byproduct. AFB systems are commonly employed in wastewater treatment and biogas production, offering benefits such as enhanced mass transfer, improved stability, and high treatment efficiency.
