Media Filtration
Filtration is used in combination with coagulation for the removal of particulates. This prepares the water for use as potable, boiler or cooling make-up.
Filter Systems and Componenents
Clarifier effluents of 2-10 NTU may be improved to <1 NTU by conventional sand filtration. Modern mixed media, AFM and zeolite filters offer effective filtration down to as little as 5 micron.
We can supply filter systems and components in steel, stainless steel or FRP for a wide variety of different applications
The loading and backwash rate is critical to the performance of any filter system.

Filter Media
Clarifier effluents of 2-10 NTU may be improved to <1 NTU by conventional sand filtration. Modern mixed media, AFM and zeolite filters offer effective filtration down to as little as 5 micron. We stock a variety of filter medias for different applications, including specialized medias such as DMI-65 for iron removal and Aquastab for pH and alkalinity rectification.
A mixed media filter refers to a type of filter bed which is graded by size and density. Coarse, less dense particles are at the top of the filter bed, with finer, more dense particles nearer to the bottom. Down-flow filtration allows deep, uniform penetration of particulate matter into the media bed and permits high filtration rates and long service runs. The smaller less dense particles tend to remain at the bottom of the filter even after high-rate back washing. Thus, the different media layers remain intact in the mixed media filter bed.
