What Does BNR Stand For?

BNR stands for Biological Nutrient Removal

BNR, or Biological Nutrient Removal, is an advanced wastewater treatment process designed to efficiently remove excess nutrients, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus, from wastewater. By utilizing naturally occurring microorganisms, BNR helps to mitigate environmental issues such as eutrophication in water bodies. This process enhances water quality and supports sustainable water resource management, making it a critical component in modern wastewater treatment facilities.
