Biological filtration biochips are carriers specifically designed to enhance the growth of bacterial biofilms in water treatment systems. With their high specific surface area and porous structure, they enable the attachment of active biomass capable of degrading organic matter, oxidizing ammonia (NH₃) into nitrites and nitrates, and contributing to nutrient removal.
These biochips provide high efficiency in nitrification and denitrification, reduce the pollutant load of effluents, and ensure improved water quality. Compact, durable, and resistant to clogging, they are widely used in wastewater treatment plants as well as in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS).

BIO-CHIPS, biological media for use in fixed bed filters
Density: 3 sizes
0.95 g / cm³
1.0 g / cm³
1.2 g / cm³
Surface area: 700 m² / m³
Protected surface: 625 m² / m³ (*)
Material: polypropylene (PP)
Color: black
Particle size: 30 x 30 x 15 mm
Weight:
0.95 g / cm³ = 138 kg / m³
1.0 g / cm³ = 145 kg / m³
1.2 g / cm³ = 174 kg / m³
Unit: m³ or bag (10L or 50L)
Note:
The protected surface is the key indicator for calculating the volume of a biofilter. The external surface, constantly exposed to abrasion, is sparsely colonized and contributes little to degradation capacity.
