Kubota Receives a Renewal and Expansion Project Order for the Big Creek Water Reclamation Facility in Fulton County, Georgia, USA Adopting a Membrane BioReactor (MBR) Treatment Process Using Submerged Membrane Units

• As the Big Creek Facility has aged over 50 years since it began operations, expanding the wastewater treatment capacity has become a challenge in Fulton County, Georgia. The current project is needed in anticipation of a continued growing population.
• Moreover, an advanced wastewater treatment system is required rather than conventional wastewater treatment system because of the more stringent requirements to meet reclaimed water quality standards and protection of the local environment.
• Fulton County decided to adopt a treatment process using the Kubota MBR for this project after visiting facilities such as the Canton Water Reclamation Facility—the largest Kubota MBR facility in the United States—and evaluating the performance, price, operational costs, technical proposals, and a variety of other aspects for similar projects delivered by Kubota.
• The Big Creek Facility will become the second largest water reclamation facility using Kubota MBR in the United States after the Canton Water Reclamation Facility.

Kubota has solved the wastewater processing challenges of customers with the delivery of MBRs to more than 6,000 projects worldwide. We constantly strive for a cycle of safe and secure water resources while also preserving the global environment by building infrastructure in the water environment field and leveraging the technologies and expertise that Kubota has cultivated thus far.
