Mecana Pile Cloth Media Primary Filtration is a cloth media filtration system made for primary wastewater and wet weather treatment. Uses disk-shaped units with OptiFiber PF-14 pile cloth to filter high solids waste streams without chemicals. Handles a wide range of flows in less space than conventional clarifiers. Reduces organic load to secondary treatment and increases solids for anaerobic digestion.

  • Cloth media filtration system for primary and post-primary wastewater treatment

  • System can be configured for dual use application for tertiary and wet weather operation

  • Vertically oriented disks reduce required footprint

  • Lightweight disks with removable segments for easy maintenance

  • Backwash system fluidises fibres to release stored solids

  • Floatable and solids removal zones designed for efficiency

  • Reduces energy use in secondary treatment by lowering organic loading

  • Supports unattended operation for remote locations

  • Increases organic solids for higher gas production in anaerobic digesters

Applications

  • Primary filtration

  • Post primary filtration

  • Stormwater

  • Sanitary sewer overflow (SSO)

  • Combined sewer overflow (CSO)

  • High solids municipal and industrial applications
