Filtration

The filtration process is a crucial step in water treatment that removes remaining particulates and impurities, producing clear, clean drinking water. As water passes through filters of varying porosity, particles are trapped while allowing water molecules to pass through. Sand, gravel, charcoal or manufactured filter media are commonly used, each with advantages for capturing specific contaminants. The filtration step is carefully monitored, with filters backwashed periodically to remove particulates. When optimized, filtration removes over 90% of remaining impurities, while advanced techniques like microfiltration and ultrafiltration can filter out particles less than 1 micron. The end result is sparkling water, free of turbidity, ready for disinfection and distribution to homes and businesses.

Bag filtration systems provide an effective method for water treatment. These advanced filters utilize fabric bags made of polypropylene or other durable materials to remove suspended solids and particulates from water. As water passes through the porous bag, particles are trapped within the fabric, resulting in clearer, cleaner effluent. Bag filters offer high flow rates and large filter areas compared to cartridge filters, making them ideal for high volume applications. Their simple, low-maintenance design also minimizes operation costs. With proper, periodic bag replacement, these systems can consistently produce water of exceptional quality for industrial, commercial, and municipal applications. Bag filtration is a proven, reliable technology for anyone seeking an efficient, economic solution for their water treatment needs.
