Identify some applications of reactors in the power system? Discuss their advantages as well.

Answer:
Explanation:
Submerged Aerobic Fixed Film Reactor (SAFF) is a cost-effective method of waste water treatment and sewage sanitation that is primarily used in residential and commercial complexes. SAFF process is attached growth type aerobic biological process which uses corrugated inert UV stabilized PVC media. Unlike other aerobic processes of suspended growth principally it provides higher mechanical surface area due to corrugation on media surface. This higher surface area helps biomass microbes for rapid digestion of biomass.
In the wastewater industry, SAFF Technology is used commonly for commercial and residential sewage sanitation / waste water treatment, particularly for small to medium range flow requirements. The air for process is supplied through mechanical aeration system arrangement which consist of blower and diffusers. The structured SAFF media arranged in reactor is fixed with bottom support arrangement.
Advantage of SAFF process
Some other uses of reactors:
For arc suppression.
To filter out harmonics.
In series with low reactance auto transformers.
In series with low reactance induction regulators.
To protect from high voltage waves, surges and lightning.
To control starting currents of motors.
