The KS-Filter™ is a continuous backwashing sand filter suitable for tertiary effluent treatment, polishing and process applications.
Simple to operate and maintenance-free, the filter provides excellent filtered water quality, whilst permitting operational control and fine setting of the backwash.
Main applications: • Surface water treatment to potable quality • Tertiary treatment • Process water preparation • Process water recycling • Algae removal
The backwash of the sand is the most important process parameter for this type of filter. The sand is taken from the bottom and is pumped by an airlift into the washing chamber. From there it falls back on the top of the sand bed. The quality of the filtered water depends on the size of the sand and on the sand backwash rate.
