Mechanical Filtration
Mechanical Filtration removes particulate matter from water
Filtration refers to the removal of solids from water. Solids in
water are normally classified and measured as either suspended
(Total Suspended Solids – TSS), or as dissolved (Total Dissolved
Solids – TDS). Generally, the definition of a dissolved solid is a
particle that is less than 2 micron.
Water Maze offers products with filtration capabilities that range
from 5 to 20 micron.
Factors that should be considered when selecting a filtration
system are: 1: the total spectrum (range) of particle sizes,
2: the total amount of particles contained in the water
(e.g., percentage of total solids), 3: the process flow rate
requirements and 4: the amount of maintenance required by the
filtration system.
When selecting a mechanical filtration system, it is important to
confirm the following: What are the water quality requirements
that pertain to the intended use of the water? Does the selected
filter or system remove enough of the particles to achieve the
water quality requirements?
Media Cartridge Filters, Multi-media filters, Media paper filters (Roto-molded for strength, corrosion and UV resistant, Self cleaning laterals)
For very low-volume applications, the CL-304 offers a
compact and affordable recycling system engineered to fit
on a single platform.
The CLP-7034 and 5024 are automated wash water recycling systems. Totally automated, the systems use a digital sequencer
to monitor and control the filtering, recirculating, filter backwashing and sludge dumping functions. Other CLP features
include extra quantities of media including gravel, sand, anthracite, and garnet; up to 320 lbs. of auto "backwashable,"
degassed, virgin activated carbon, 185-490 sq. ft. of cone-shaped, coalescing plates for optimum separation of oil and solids
from wash water, industrial-grade ozone generator, convenient, mess-free method of disposing of sludge from the system
The Delta wash-water recycling systems are ideal when a wash facility is already equipped with a collection pit or
pre-treatment system. The Delta is self-contained and has a low profile so it can be quickly installed inside a building
or next to a wash pad. The Delta features Water Maze's proprietary "maze" design that uses oleophilic—oil-loving—coalescing
plates, which are meshed together and inclined at just the right angle to produce highly effective oil-water separation.
This product is a water management control center that receives
processed water from another source.
The Filter Pac III module can be applied for polishing waste
streams in treatment and discharge, as well as recycle
applications. The Pac III features carbon, cartridges and media
filters for recycle quality wash water.
