Disc filters are designed for water treatment and filtration of wastewater. The water flows through an influent pipe where it enters the individual filters. These disk filters then proceed to remove undesirable particulate. A filter cartridge is made up of multiple disk filters for circulation systems. After the liquid enters the influent pipe the rotating filter cartage removes solids from as small as 30 microns to 350 microns. The caught materials are removed from the filters and sent to discharge mouths in order to keep the filtration system from clogging. These systems can vary from manufacture to manufacture but the basic principle remains the same.

Features:
Other compact type of disk filtration is achieved by stacking disk filters with small groves upon one another. As the water flows through the filters, algae and contaminates are captured within the walls and groves of the filters. These groves form a matrix that catches particles and traps them. The water passes through to the center of the disk filters where the product water then flows to storage or another disk filter for further filtration. These filters are also self cleaning, achieved through a back flushing process, that forces water in the opposite direction while the filter spins in order to optimize the cleaning process. The pressure between the disks is relieved to allow the filtered material to be removed. In some instance many of these filters are used in series so that one filter can always be active while the others clean themselves. |
