The area is not served by a public sewer system, so for the development to move forward an onsite wastewater treatment system was necessary.
DESCRIPTION
Located in Marmora New Jersey, the facility handles wastewater from the “Marmora Town Center”, a 88,100 square foot retail shopping center and restaurants, anchored by a Shop Rite grocery store. The area is not served by a public sewer system, so for the development to move forward an onsite wastewater treatment system was necessary. Due to MBR’s compact size, superior treatment efficiency, ease of operation and the ability to accommodate wide ranges in flow and loading, Ovivo was chosen to supply flat‐ plate MBR technology for the 16,000 gpd system. Ovivo worked with Applied Water Management (now Natural Systems Utilities) to engineer the MBR plant to overcome tight land constraints by installing the system within the complex buildings.
