Water filtration for industrial water, wastewater and water recyling processes
Sand Filter (SF)Sand filtration is frequently used and very robust method to remove suspended solids from water. The filtration medium consists of a multiple layer of high silica sand with a variety in size and specific gravity. Sand filters can be supplied in different sizes and materials both hand operated or fully automatically. A special application of a sand filter is the removal of iron in surface and ground or well water. An iron removal installation consists of a aeration to oxidise and precipitate the iron and manganese, followed by removal of the precipitated particles with the sand filter. During service Water enters from the top, travels through the filtering media & goes out from the bottom. The suspended solids in the water get trapped in the filter & we get clean clear water at the outlet. This accumulated dirt (suspended solids) needs to be removed otherwise the filter will get choked & will result in less treatment flow, damage to the filter, damage to the pump, etc. The cleaning operation of the filter is called Backwash. This backwash operation needs to done once the differential pressure across the filter reaches 0.8 kg/cm2 or 24 hours of service cycle whichever is earlier.

Ancient civilizations knew the benefites of charred coal for improving the quality of drinking water. Today also we rely on the same principle and being used in numerous applications, is activated carbon.
