Superior Effluent Quality
Proven MBR Systems,
Built for Your Needs

Newterra’s MBR systems combine biological treatment with advanced membrane filtration to deliver superior effluent quality in a compact footprint. We offer configurable, custom, and remote solutions for projects ranging from small rural communities to large industrial facilities, with faster delivery times and scalable system designs.

Designed for Lasting Performance & Backed by Proven Expertise

Every membrane bioreactor (MBR) system starts with the same goal—clean, consistent water quality. Newterra takes that foundation further with modular engineering, advanced controls, and decades of hands-on experience in domestic and industrial wastewater projects. From faster installations to simplified maintenance, our systems are built to perform reliably for the long term.

Modular & Scalable

Systems are built in prefabricated modules that can easily expand or reconfigure as flow and capacity requirements grow.

Innovative Engineering

Proprietary solutions, such as our patented side-access membrane removal, eliminate the need for overhead cranes and streamline maintenance compared to traditional top-access designs.

Fast Deployment, Any Site

Prefabricated, factory-tested units minimize fieldwork and installation time—and adapt seamlessly to both greenfield builds and existing facility upgrades.

Remote Operation Ready

Integrates with secure digital tools that enable real-time performance tracking and alerts from anywhere in the world.

Reduced Waste Handling

Advanced MBR technology condenses waste more effectively than conventional systems, significantly reducing hauling costs and the frequency of disposal.

End-to-End Partnership

Full startup assistance, operator training, and expert support from initial assessment through design, installation, and ongoing operation keep your system performing at its best.

From system sizing and installation to remote monitoring and long-term maintenance, we’ve answered the questions our clients ask most. Don’t see what you’re looking for? Reach out to our team directly.

An MBR combines conventional biological wastewater treatment with membrane filtration to produce high-quality effluent in a compact system. Microorganisms break down contaminants, and ultrafiltration membranes then separate treated water from solids — eliminating the need for a secondary clarifier and delivering consistently clean output.

Our patented side-access membrane removal allows operators to service membranes at ground level without overhead cranes or heavy lifting equipment. This reduces downtime, lowers maintenance costs, and makes routine servicing safer and more efficient compared to traditional top-access designs.

Yes. Newterra’s modular MBR systems are designed with scalability in mind. Additional modules can be integrated into the existing system as flow requirements increase, protecting your initial investment and avoiding costly full-system replacements down the road.

Absolutely. Our self-contained remote MBR systems are engineered for independence — requiring minimal infrastructure, low operator oversight, and reliable performance in challenging environments like mining camps, resorts, and rural communities.
