Wastewater Filter Medium
Posted On Tuesday, January 6th, 2009 By grou
Ground cullet is used as a Wastewater Filter Medium. Electromagnetized bed of crushed glass used for cleaning municipal and hazardous waste waters. System filtration is efficient, high quality, and highly reliable compared to other systems. Municipal waste water can be cleaned to tertiary standards. Retrofitting can increase the capacity of an existing municipal system by decreasing the pressure drop through the system. System takes up less space than does does a conventional system and gives higher backwash rates and shorter backwash cycles. It reduces both water and chemical costs and because it is non-chemical treatment. Environmental liability is reduced. The system reduces sludge waste by 80%, eliminates the discharge of shop water into sewers, and lasts 10 times longer than sand. Installation costs are comparable to conventional systems and the operating costs are significantly lower.
