Introduction
Automatic gravity sand filter (Self-cleaning gravity sand filtration tank) – attached with lamella clarifier is commonly used in the existing water treatment systems. From continuous research and improvement, the automatic gravity san filter of VTECH Vietnam Environment Technology Joint Stock Company has been used and brought about outstanding efficiency in clean water treatment plants
Techincal Specifications
Operational Principles
The automatic gravity sand filter is operated on a principle of water permeability through a filter material layer. Water is supplied to the filter with a pipeline into the filtration device.
Clean water is penetrated through the filter material layer, and dirty impurities in water are retained on and in the filter material layer. Quartz sand is used as a filter material that meets the best filtration process.
The backwash process takes place when impurities in water are large and they create obstacles from water purification process. Difference in vacuum pressure in siphons will push all dirty water out from siphons. At the end of the backwashing process, the material is completely cleaned, and it is rearranged to ensure the best water filtration
Advantages of Automatic gravity sand filter:
- Fast construction time.
- High aesthetic and industrial design.
- Compact installation area.
- Capacity-based Module, easy upgrading and improvement of factory capacity.
- Automatically backwash and clean the filter material layer.
- No power consumption.
