Abcs Of Survival Water Purification Systems

By Stacey Burt


When the filtering layer begins to clog need cleaning it, which happens every 4 to 6 weeks. The cleaning is manual and involves removing the first layer of sand, sand washing in separate tubs and in reconstruction of filter bed. Quick filters are the most used, particularly in combination with other treatments such as clarification (surface waters) and the removal of iron and manganese (deep waters), and can deal with an input flow rate 40 times higher than that of lens filters (survival water purification systems).

The sedimented material is conveyed towards a hopper formed on bottom of tank, by means of mechanical pickers that sweep the bottom of same, and from here pumped to sludge treatment line. The size of tanks depends on detention time which is a function of characteristics of solid sediments present in raw waters and the type of decanter chosen.

Filtration is a treatment used to remove suspended solids from the waters not sediment. Treatment consists in passing the raw waters through a filter medium (bed / filter layer or filter cloth). In case of filter layer, the filter material can be made from quartz sand, anthracite or activated charcoal. During filtration the filtered solids gradually begin to clog the filtering layer resulting in an increase of load losses, which is increased to overcome the supply pressure. Exceeded the maximum value of said pressure must be made to interruption of flow and to cleaning of filter medium.

The filtering layer resting on a draining bottom, which has the function of: surface filters: filtration takes place through filter cloths which prevent the passage from the materials above the size of blind holes (not es.tessuto tissue; in this case the particles are retained on the surface of filter media forming a layer of material that retains the subsequent particles.

Physical and chemical treatments normal and driven: they are divided into several phases and eliminate non-settleable suspended solids (flocculation) and correct the chemical characteristics of waters by eliminating the dissolved substances that are incompatible with the use to which the waters is bound (softening, stabilization, removal of iron, manganese, desilication, fluoridation and defluoration, aeration).

The flocculation basins have a rectangular shape and can be: Staged: where to achieve greater efficiency, the tank is divided into several zones in series in which the agitation is gradually decreasing. Channels: are horizontal flow, where the pool is subdivided by transverse partitions to form a channel whose width is gradually increased so as to obtain a flow velocity gradually decreasing.

The 'sodium aluminate is very expensive and is also used in treatment of lime-soda softening species in case of high hardness and magnesium. In some waters, even with a strong dose of coagulant, are unable to develop a staple of suitable density. Inse cases, adjuvants are added to waters coagulation to promote the densification of micro-flakes.

What lens filters the filtering action is exerted by the biological film that develops on the surface of filter in 10-15 days (aging time of filter). The film filter is very sensitive to mechanical disturbances and organic contaminants. During the period of maturation of film the filtered waters is not considered potable. The inflow of waters into filter takes place from above while runoff occurs from the bottom; the filtration rate.
