VORTISAND® will protect RO membranes efficiently
VORTISAND® requires less backwash water than any conventional filters
Considerable bag filters and maintenance savings
Small footprint units for space saving
Ultra fine particle removal down to 0.45 micron.
RO membrane systems usually require a turbidity of <1 NTU and SDI < 5. This means that the objective of the prefiltration should be to reduce the TSS to a level that would be < 0.5 ppm or better. There are very few options to consider here for the prefiltration of the raw water.
provides a filtration that is 10 to 20 times finer than the traditional sand filters. Its high performance results from a unique concept that combines centrifugal separation and sand filtration and this is what makes our filter the best available polishing solution to RO.
VORTISAND® used as RO pretreatment for membrane protection.
Small footprint of the VORTISAND allowed easy installation in existing plant.
VORTISAND used for major Municipal Wastewater Reuse Application in Texas.
Great particle removal efficiency acheived in one-pass through the filter.
Wastewater was reused in Harlingen to supply local factory - a reliable supply in case of drought or strain on the potable water system. Refer to our case study on City of Harlingen, TX.
