▍Media Filter 222
The Principle of Filtration
Medium filter is usually called depth filters, water flows through a certain thickness, a certain particle dielectric layer size then reaches the filtering effect. The media may be quartz sand, gravel or granular materials other filtering medium grade depends on the particle diameter and flow through the filter bed velocity, INOCO provides a series of various forms of such products, all kinds of filter media (sand, quartz sand, activated carbon, multilayer media) and accessories, can also provide control system using single or multiple parallel situation.
How Media Filters Work
The water flows into the water inlet of the filter and flows through the filter layer, suspended impurities in water by filtering layer adsorption, filtered water from filtering cap flows to the outlet. Filter cleaning can be done by backwashing, the flow is the reverse flow from the water filtering cap upward, causing turbulence filter layer disturbance, the adsorption of impurities is released and discharged through the discharge valve, backwashing process is completed automatically by the inlet and outlet pressure differential or setting time.

▍Fully Automatic Shallow Sand Filter
The fully automatic shallow filtration system is composed of multiple standard high-speed sand tank units, with a unique water distributor and water collector inside, and a unique two-way automatic flush valve, which can realize multiple standard high-speed in normal system operation. The sand tank is backwashed individually one by one, fully automatic program control. It has the advantages of small backwash water consumption, convenient equipment installation and easy operation. The device has a high flow rate and requires no maintenance. According to different user requirements, there are vertical and horizontal two series. It is suitable for water quality treatment of industrial and civil circulating water systems.
Working Principle
Washing filter status:
When the system is in the filtering state, the unfiltered water is evenly distributed through the self-developed unique water distributor, and the water passes through the packing layer (refined uniform-grained quartz sand/garnet) in the filter in a laminar flow state. When water flows through the packing layer, impurities are trapped in the packing layer. There is a plurality of evenly distributed water collectors at the bottom of the filter, the filtered water is evenly collected and drawn out, and the advective filtration can make the filter at a high flow rate, and still achieve a better filtering effect. Backwash state: As impurities accumulate in the packing layer, the internal head loss will continue to increase. When the head loss of the inlet and outlet water reaches the set value, the system will automatically activate the constant pressure device to switch to the backwashing state. When the backwashing is over, the hydraulic valve changes the direction of the water supply to realize the backwashing one by one, which is more convenient Clean up accumulated impurities. When the system is in the state of backwashing, the filtration continues, the standard unit sand tank to be backwashed is not filtered, and the other standard unit sand tanks in the system are still filtering. Part of the filtered clean water is used to backwash the standard unit sand tank, and the rest is still sent to the user. The backwash sewage is discharged through the backwash drain of the hydraulic valve. In the automatic high-efficiency filtration system of the high-speed sand tank, the special water collector design can make the fillers rub each other, maximize the backwashing efficiency, reduce the required backwashing water (clean water), and at the same time when backwashing No runaway phenomenon. A standard unit sand tank is backwashed for 2 minutes. After the backwash is completed, the internal pressure head loss of the standard unit sand tank is reduced to a reasonable range. The constant pressure device gives a recovery signal, and the hydraulic valve returns to the filtering state. The next standard unit sand tank. Then prepare to enter the backwash state product features.

2. The equipment has good anti-corrosion performance and long service life.
3. Large amount of filtration water, good filtration effect, fast filtration flow rate, normal filtration rate can be about 40m³/h, according to water quality up to 60m³/h; filter backwash adopts product water, and no booster pump and backwash pump are required; Backwashing lasted 2-3min, backwashing water volume <3m³. ·High filtration precision, impurity filtration precision can be below 0.10mm, effluent turbidity can be less than 0.5NTU. The filtration system consists of a standard unit sand tank, and the filtration flow can be increased from 30.6 cubic meters per hour to 2500 cubic meters per hour.
4. Automatic backwashing: The backwashing of the equipment is automatically identified and controlled by the intelligent control system without manual intervention. Even if the suspended matter in the water fluctuates, the equipment may automatically adapt.
5. The water supply is uninterrupted; when the equipment is backwashed, the filtration process is carried out at the same time, and the system supplies water as usual.
6. Adopt unique cloth and water collection device. Because of the unique water distribution system of the filtration system and the very evenly distributed water collector, the water flow is layered in the whole filtration process, and the plane of the filter sand bed is always flat during the filtration process, and the water is discharged. Water quality is stable.
7. Use refined and preferred quartz sand or garnet as the filter medium. Select according to the water quality. The minimum particle size of the filter material can be a homogeneous filter material of 0.16mm.
8. The long-term operation cost is low, saving electricity, water and maintenance costs. Power saving: The system has a unique automatic backwash valve. The sand filter tank is not backwashed at the same time, but is backwashed one by one under the normal operation of the system, and there is no need to consider setting a backwash pump. At the same time, compared with other sand filter equipment, the required lift of the filter pump is 6-7m lower. Water saving: Because of its unique water replenisher and water collector, the system has a unified tank body, so that the medium layer can be very uniformly expanded for effective backwashing without the need for compressed air during backwashing. The water used for backwashing is filtered clean water, so the consumption of backwashing water is small. Backwash water volume per tank Fully automatic shallow sand filter.
Only 1m³/min, the backwash time is 2-3 minutes. Save maintenance costs: The whole system has no mechanical or electric valves, and only relies on a unique multi-function valve to control the backwashing of the system. Due to the unique multi-function valve has no wear and long life, there is no damage record within 10 years, and the management cost is low.

▍Activated Carbon Filter
In the water quality pretreatment system, the activated carbon filter can absorb the residual chlorine that cannot be removed in the previous stage filtration to prevent the reverse osmosis membrane of the subsequent stage from being oxidatively degraded. Water odor, colloids, pigments, heavy metal ions, etc. have obvious adsorption and removal effects, and also have the effect of reducing COD. The SDI value of RO influent can be further reduced to ensure SDI<5 and TOC<2.0ppm.
The activated carbon filter pressure vessel is a pressure vessel filled with activated carbon.
The work of an activated carbon filter is done through a carbon bed. The activated carbon particles that make up the carbon bed have many micropores and huge specific surface area, and have strong physical adsorption capacity. The water passes through the carbon bed, and the organic pollutants in the water are effectively adsorbed by the activated carbon. In addition, there are some oxygen-containing functional groups on the amorphous part of the surface of the activated carbon, so that the organic pollutants in the water passing through the carbon bed are effectively adsorbed by the activated carbon. Activated carbon filter is a commonly used water treatment equipment. As a pretreatment of water treatment desalination system, it can effectively ensure the service life of the latter-stage equipment, improve the quality of the effluent, and prevent pollution, especially to prevent the latter-stage reverse osmosis membrane, ion exchange resin, etc. Free state residual chlorine poisoning pollution.
The main factors affecting the adsorption effect and service life of the activated carbon filter are: the type and concentration of pollutants, the residence time of the air flow in the filter material, and the temperature and humidity of the air.
In actual selection, the type of filter and the type of activated carbon should be determined according to conditions such as the type of pollutant, concentration and air volume to be treated.
The upstream and downstream of the activated carbon filter should have a good dust filter, and its efficiency specification should not be lower than F7. The upstream filter prevents dust from clogging the activated carbon material; the downstream filter blocks the dust generation of the activated carbon itself.
Working Principle
Activated carbon filter uses granular activated carbon to further remove residual chlorine, organic matter, and suspended impurities in the effluent of the mechanical filter, providing good conditions for subsequent reverse osmosis treatment.
The activated carbon filter mainly uses activated carbon organic flocs with high carbon content, large molecular weight and large specific surface area to physically adsorb impurities in the water to meet the water quality requirements. When the water flows through the pores of the activated carbon, various suspended particles, organic matter, etc. At the same time, the chlorine ( hypochlorous acid) adsorbed on the surface of the activated carbon undergoes a chemical reaction on the surface of the activated carbon and is reduced to chloride ions, thereby effectively removing the chlorine and ensuring that the residual chlorine in the effluent is less than 0.1 ppm, which meets the operating conditions of the RO membrane. With the passage of time, the retentate in the pores of the activated carbon and between the particles gradually increases, so that the pressure difference between the front and rear of the filter increases until it fails. Under normal circumstances, according to the pressure difference between the front and rear of the filter, reverse water flow is used to backwash the filter material, so that most of the retentate adsorbed in the pores of the activated carbon is stripped and taken away by the water flow, and the adsorption function is restored; when the activated carbon reaches the saturated adsorption capacity completely When it fails, the activated carbon should be regenerated or replaced to meet the engineering requirements.
